The Witcher's Latest Animated Film Unveils Full Trailer

Fans of The Witcher franchise have been eagerly awaiting more news about the latest animated film, and the wait is finally over with the release of a full-length trailer. This new development comes just in time as The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep is set to premiere on Netflix on February 11.

A key attraction of the film is the return of Doug Cockle, who will once again lend his voice to the character of Geralt, a role he previously portrayed in the video games. Additionally, Anya Chalotra and Joey Batey reprise their roles as Yennefer of Vengerberg and Jaskier, respectively, from the live-action series. Although it is rooted in the universe of the TV show, the storyline is inspired by a short story by Andrzej Sapkowski, the mind behind the franchise.

The narrative, derived from "A Little Sacrifice," follows Geralt as he explores a series of peculiar attacks in a coastal town. This leads him into a dispute between humans and merpeople, set against the backdrop of a submerged city, making for an intriguing plot.

Directing the film is Kang Hei Chul, notable for his work as a storyboard artist on The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf. Animation is being handled by Studio Mir, a renowned South Korean studio known for their work on projects such as The Legend of Korra and Voltron: Legendary Defender. Studio Mir's involvement is expected to maintain a high standard of animation, aligning with their esteemed reputation.

Exciting developments are also underway in The Witcher universe beyond this animated film. A fourth game focused on Ciri is in the pipeline, and the fifth and concluding season of the TV series is anticipated to hit Netflix in 2026.
