In the prequel to the series The Witcher, the main role will be played by a black actress – a minstrel and a fighter with monsters

The saga of the Witcher Geralt of Rivia is more popular than ever. The release of the game gave way to the series, which became a real hit. All this led to high sales of original books, which in turn only increased interest in such content. It is clear that Netflix is ​​not going to pass up the chance to grow its portfolio. The second season of The Witcher is filming right now with Henry Cavill, and another project is brewing in the bowels of the streaming service.

Many of our readers were unhappy with the casting of the original Netflix series. And if Henry Cavill himself raises the least questions, then Tris Merigold was the most unlucky. Apparently, Anna Shaffer won’t get a lot of screen time, since the fans clearly didn’t like her. This whole thing is subjective, but this time the community of The Witcher fans is unanimous as never before

It is possible that the next project – Blood Origin will cause even more resonance. This is a series that Netflix is ​​filming. He tells about the events 1200 years before Geralt and tells about the conjugation of the spheres. At the center of the action is an elite warrior named Eile, played by an actress Jodie Turner-Smith.

Eila will have to fight for her queen. She once abandoned her clan and became a minstrel. After the tragic event, she must take revenge on the invader, which, most likely, means the monsters that appeared after the conjugation of the spheres. Nothing is known about the release date of the series, but many fans of the Witcher universe have already expressed their indignation. We are not inclined to consider their behavior to be correct, judging the actors by their ability to play, and not by other criteria. It is only recently that Western cinema has clearly focused on the choice of actors based on their gender and race.
