Though Netflix has turned The Witcher in one of its main commercial strongholds, apparently those responsible do not like too much to work in the universe created by Andrzej Sapkowski. And now a Former Netflix’s The Witcher Writer Has Revealed That The Show’s Writers Make Fun Of The Books And The Games, which are not to your liking or interest. It has been Beau DeMayo, who participated in the script for the first season of the series, who has explained this situation in a recent interview granted to The Direct portal, where he talked about his new project X-Men ’97 and the importance of being a fan of what you work on.
“I was in a series called The Witcher where some of the writers weren’t fans or actively talked about not liking books or games (even constantly they made fun of the source material). That is a recipe for disaster and poor morale. Fandom as a litmus test serves as an ego check and makes all the late nights worthwhile. You have to respect the previous work before you’re allowed to add to his legacy”, He has commented on his new series but also leaving a good taunt to his former companions in Netflix’s The Witcher.
These words make sense if we consider that the second season of the series deviated much more from Sapkowski’s books than the first and it contrasts especially with a passionate Henry Cavill, who brings Geralt of Rivia to life and who has always talked about how he nuances script decisions and tries to stay as faithful as possible to the source material. Meanwhile, the spin-off The Witcher: Blood Origin is coming to Netflix on December 25, while the third season of the main series is scheduled to premiere on Netflix. summer 2023.
