Hissrich has been very clear that the series isn't adapting the games, but there's always the chance this new character Violet may prove to be a subtle nod to them and the tragic violet rose storyline. While Violet wasn't featured in the books, fans of the popular video game franchise likely can't help thinking of the violet rose prominently featured in the Hearts of Stone expansion.
In February 2020, it was announced that Carmel Laniado joined the cast in a recurring role as Violet, "a young girl whose playful and whimsical demeanor is a front for a smarter and more sadistic character," per Deadline. The Witcher Season 1 featured a handful of characters who didn't originate in the books, and Season 2 will follow suit. Mecia Simson has been cast as Francesa, and though Netflix didn't include a last name for the character, book readers can probably safely assume the actress will be playing Francesca Findabair aka Enid an Gleanna, a powerful elven ruler. Aisha Fabienne Ross will play Lydia, a sorceress and assistant to Vilgefortz. Agnes Bjorn will play Vereena, who is a key role in the Nivellen storyline. In early 2020, Netflix announced new additions to The Witcher cast, including Game of Thrones' Kristofer Hivju in the role of Nivellen. Adjoa Andoh will play Nenneke and will be joined by Cassie Claire as Phillippa Eilhart, Liz Carr as Fenn, Outlander's Graham McTavish as Dijkstra, Kevin Doyle as Ba'lian, Simon Callow as Codringher, and Chris Fulton as Rience. There will be several new additions to the cast: Seven new characters were announced in March 2021 in a "Welcome to the Continent" announcement from Netflix. Other returning cast members include Joey Batey (Jaskier), MyAnna Buring (Tissaia), Tom Canton (Filavandrel), Lilly Cooper (Murta), Jeremy Crawford (Yarpin Zigrin), Eamon Farren (Cahir), Mahesh Jadu (Vilgefortz), Terence Maynard (Artorius), Lars Mikkelsen (Stregobor), Mimi Ndiweni (Fringilla Vigo), Royce Pierreson (Istredd), Wilson Radjou-Pujalte (Dara), Anna Shaffer (Triss Merigold), and Therica Wilson Read (Sabrina). The main cast will return. Henry Cavill, Anya Chalotra, and Freya Allen will all reprise their roles as Geralt, Yennefer, and Ciri, respectively. Henry Cavill, The Witcher Jay Maidment/Netflix Casting So what can we expect of The Witcher Season 2? Here's everything we know so far. But now that all three timelines have caught up to each other, we can't wait for Season 2 so that the series can really delve into the relationships between Geralt, Yennefer, and Ciri. The first season was told across three timelines, each of which followed one of the three main characters. The show stars Cavill as monster hunter Geralt of Rivia, a witcher whose destiny becomes bound to the sorceress Yennefer ( Anya Chalotra) and the powerful princess Ciri ( Freya Allan). The Witcher is inspired by Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski's Witcher books, which also spawned the popular CD Projekt Red video game franchise. Rest assured that Geralt ( Henry Cavill) seems up to the task of handling another potential apocalypse, but to make sure you are ready, we're compiling everything Netflix has released about the new season, as well as the expanding Witcherverse, including the premiere date and several other interesting spoilers for Season 2. Season 2 has wrapped production and will finally premiere next month after fans have been waiting for almost two years to find out what happens next. This is a usual time for streaming services to release their newest original shows, so it's also likely that Netflix's other projects like Dota and the new Avatar: The Last Airbender adaptation to be released at this time as well.Freya Allan and Paul Bullion, The Witcher Netflix There shouldn't be any difficulties accessing it right when it's released, as Netflix isn't known for crashing, so viewers should be able to watch the first episodes of The Witcher season 2 without any problems. Netflix released along with an excerpt from The Witcher season 2 episode "A Grain of Truth," script. The Witcher season 2 release time will be 12:01 am PST, 3:01 am EST, and 8:01 am GMT, Friday, December 17, 2021. Episode 1 has been revealed to be an adaptation of one of the short stories from the collection The Last Wish. RELATED: The Witcher Season 2: Every New & Returning Character Confirmed So Far Season 1 ends with Geralt and Ciri finally meeting each other, so The Witcher season 2 is expected to develop their dynamic and build the narrative into a more streamlined plot. This said, the show also dedicates time to two other notable entities - the sorceress Yennifer, and the princess Cirilla, who Geralt is bound to protect as a result of his own adventures. Season 1 primarily focuses on establishing Geralt's life and exploits as a monster hunter who is largely derided by the general public.
