Stay tuned to Redanian Intelligence as we cover the season two promos. With five months left to the second season’s premiere, we expect to learn more about the plot and the character arcs in the coming months and we look forward to reading more interesting interviews with Lauren Hissrich and the cast. We wanted to make sure that felt like an authentic relationship, that they weren’t just bonded at the very beginning.” And we have Ciri, who’s used to being under the care of people but has basically been running from everyone for an entire season and now being told that this person is going to take care of you.Īnd so it was really fun to start Season 2 kind of them a little uncertain about how to be with each other, and they have to really grow into that. How do they grow to be one? What do you do if you are a person like Geralt, who has sworn he doesn’t need anyone in the world whatsoever?Īnd then he’s presented with a girl who is now solely in his care. “At the end of Season 1, we have what I think is one of the most emotional scenes that we’ve done, which is Geralt and Ciri finding each other after they’ve both been searching all season… And it seems like we’ve got a father figure and daughter figure, and everything’s going to be perfect at that point, except for they’ve never met.Īnd so it was really fun to start Season 2 thinking about, well, they’re not a family yet. Unlike the books, Geralt and Ciri only meet in the very last scene of Season 1, which led to many fans worrying how two people who have just met form a strong father-daughter relationship. Lauren on handling Geralt and Ciri’s relationship in Season 2 It’s probably my favorite scene of the season. It took an entire day to shoot, and we struggled with it because it’s such an emotional scene and so much happens. “We were shooting a scene in the Kaer Morhen lab between Vesemir and Ciri. Talking of a scene between Kim Bodnia and Freya Allan, Hissrich says: Lauren calls the casting of Kim Bodnia as Vesemir “perfection”. On Kim Bodnia’s Vesemir and her favorite scene of Season 2 And you end up with this multigenerational story because Vesemir and Ciri have a story as well, and it does start to feel like, “Oh, all of these people are meant to be interacting and learning from each other and fighting with each other.” Obviously, we’re returning to Kaer Morhen for the first time, and in a season that is about Geralt becoming a father to Ciri, it felt so important to meet who his father figure was. Vesemir is so integral to the story that we’re telling this season. There’s so many, but I would have to say Vesemir is the one I’m looking most forward to our audience meeting. I know a lot of fans are excited to meet Philippa for the first time, Codringher and Fenn, Rience, Nenneke. We are getting to see Dijkstra for the first time and sort of the Redanian Kingdoms. “There are so many characters that we’re introducing in Season 2. Initially reluctant to reveal her favorite season two character, at the prodding of host Julia Hardy Lauren disclosed him to be none other than Vesemir. The showrunner’s favorite Season 2 character So, the most fun thing we did was to just make sure everyone felt at home and they got to rough-house a lot.” And when they do, they reunite every single winter and that’s when they get to relax and be themselves. They all go out and they sort of do have their own adventures and it’s really dangerous and you don’t know if your brothers are going to come back or not. We talked a lot about the Witchers being almost like a military family. Henry comes from a family of brothers, so it is something we talked about a lot and what it is like to be part of a big family. So that’s what we started this relationship with. So much of what we talk about in The Witcher is about family. On Kaer Morhen, Henry Cavill, and the relationship between the WitchersĪccording to Hissrich, family is once again at the center of the Season 2 stories, and Kaer Morhen is the home. Hissrich spoke passionately about many aspects of season two, the Witcher family, Henry Cavill, Kim Bodnia, her favorite season two character, Kaer Morhen, and how she handled the various familial bonds in the story. Among the many goodies that Witchercon gave us, was the interview with Lauren Hissrich, showrunner, and executive producer of The Witcher.
