The Witcher Season 3 will be making its way to Netflix very soon. This franchise has been up to a lot of work during these past few days.

Lauren S. Hissrich, the showrunner of The Witcher franchise, has mentioned that the writers are already working on scripts for The Witcher Season 3.

There are lots of new ideas for the new season, and many of these ideas will be implemented to make the show memorable for everyone.
Once they are ready with the scripts, they will start talking to all the characters involved in The Witcher Season 3. The directors will come into the scene then, and the production will begin in a full-fledged way.

Bart Edwards will also be playing a considerable role in The Witcher Season 3 as the villain.
After the second season, we have all noticed that the cast has been expanded in a big way. This same practice can be seen in the upcoming season as well.
The show also has Philippa Eilhatd, one of the most prominent LGBTQ+ characters. She had a cameo in the season, and we are sure to see her in the upcoming season.
What could be the plot for The Witcher Season 3?
After all the chaos in the final episodes of The Witcher Season 2, the upcoming episodes in The Wither Season 3 will primarily focus on the destiny that Ciri holds. She might end up becoming the destroyer of the world or its saviour.
We will see several forces who would try their best to manipulate her power for their help. Amongst these forces also include Ciri’s father, who has emerged from the dead. However, with Geralt and Yennefer by her side, Ciri can be assured of her safety.

He mentioned that Lauren is updating a few of the scripts penned down way back in the 1980s.
People nowadays are not just interested in dragons. They are interested in the process as to how xenophobia works and how does disruption and war feel like.
Lauren S. Hissrich seems to be perfect in expressing these controversial topics through her way of filmmaking. This is what excites Joey Batey a lot, and he is looking forward to his role in The Witcher Season 3.
Freya Allen was also asked the same question during the November tour. She wants to see her character become a fantastic fighter. Ciri is waiting to hold to a silver sword and not a broomstick. Both Freya Allen and her on-screen character are waiting for the same thing.
She has revealed that she has been able to get a peek at the scripts for The Witcher Season 3. She surely hopes for a remarkable third season with the show.
