The second season of the fantasy drama television series The Witcher, is based on the book series of the same name by Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski and created for television by writer and television producer Lauren Schmidt Hissrich. Consisting of eight episodes, each running approximately 50–65 minutes, the season was released on Netflix on December 17, 2020. The series is based on the short story "A Grain of Truth" from The Last Wish,[1] Blood of Elves, and the beginning of Time of Contempt.[2]

The second season features an ensemble cast led by Henry Cavill, Anya Chalotra, Freya Allan, Joey Batey, Eamon Farren, MyAnna Buring, Mimî M. Khayisa, Anna Shaffer, Mahesh Jadu, Royce Pierreson, Tom Canton, Mecia Simson, Wilson Mbomio, and Kim Bodnia

The season received positive reviews, who praised the action sequences, performances, visuals, musical score, production values, cinematography, and storyline. Despite many critics have considered it to be an improvement over it's previous season, audience response was more mixed. A third season was confirmed in September 2021.[3]

Premise[edit]

The story is set in a fictional, medieval-inspired landmass known as "the Continent", with three storylines focusing on the witcher Geralt of Rivia, the crown princess Ciri of Cintra, and the sorceress Yennefer of Vengerberg, with the storylines taking place now in a single timeline, while continuing the war of the Northern Kingdoms against Nilfgaard. The season follows Geralt becoming the protector of Ciri, after the two finally met. Geralt takes Ciri to Kaer Morhen, which leads the former to uncover an old elder prophecy, where Ciri's blood could be used to destroy the world.

The Northern Kingdoms prevail at Sodden. Geralt and Ciri encounter Tissaia on the battlefield and she tells them of Yenn's sacrifice, implying she didn't survive. Geralt decides to take Ciri to the witcher stronghold, Kaer Morhen. They come across a deserted village and Geralt detours to visit a nearby friend, Nivellen, who they discover has been cursed into a beast form. Ciri encounters a young woman named Vereena hiding in the house. Geralt investigates the village further and determines it was a bruxa, a type of vampire with a powerful scream and two rows of teeth, that caused the villagers to flee. He returns to see Vereena drinking Nivellen's blood as she even assumes a bat-like form. In the ensuing fight, Vereena is killed by Geralt, lifting Nivellen's curse. Nivellen reveals he loved Vereena and did nothing during her attacks on the village. He also reveals, to Geralt and Ciri's disgust, that he was cursed because he had raped a priestess. He begs Geralt to kill him, but Geralt refuses and tells him to do it himself. In Aretuza, Tissaia tortures Cahir for information on Nilfgaard. Fringilla takes Yennefer captive and starts toward Cintra, but their party is ambushed on the road.
Based on "A Grain of Truth" from The Last Wish.[1]
102"Kaer Morhen"Stephen SurjikBeau DeMayoDecember 17, 2021 (2021-12-17)
Yennefer and Fringilla are captured by Filavandrel, who takes them to elven sorceress Francesca Findabair. Francesca wants them killed but Filavandrel argues they're useful in these woods, which are human. The elves are digging near a ruined monolith under the order of Francesca, who is having visions of a white-robed figure she believes is the elven prophet Ithlinne. Yennefer and Fringilla also dream of robed figures, red and black, respectively. They tell Filavandrel their dreams and suggest they might be able to help the elves; Filavandrel is considering this when the elves find something. A tunnel opens to an altar inscribed with an incantation. Francesca recites the incantation and the altar opens to reveal a passage leading to a magic hut in a forest. The three sorceresses are visited by the Deathless Mother, a mysterious being who takes on a different form for each – Yennefer sees her younger self, Fringilla sees Emperor Emhyr, and Francesca sees Ithlinne – and reveals the path each must take to achieve their greatest desire. The sorceresses are released. Fringilla joins Francesca to form an elven-Nilfgaardian alliance; Yennefer calls them fools and attempts to open a portal only to discover she's lost her magic. Geralt and Ciri join the remaining witchers at Kaer Morhen. Eskel arrives late, carrying the severed hand of a leshy. The witchers are partying when their medallions start vibrating, indicating a monster is near. Geralt discovers Eskel was infected by the leshy and has been transformed into one, which should be impossible. Eskel says he returned seeking help, but he's unable to control the leshy side and attacks Vesemir, forcing Geralt to kill him. Realizing Kaer Morhen isn't safe, Geralt agrees to train Ciri in combat.

Development[edit]

In November 2019, The Witcher showrunner and creator Lauren Schmidt Hissrich confirmed that the show was getting a second season, just a month before the show's premiere. It was also confirmed that the episode would consist of eight episodes and that production would begin on early 2020 in London, with the intention of getting a 2021 release date.[12] In June 2020, it was confirmed that the second season was under the working title "Mysterious Monsters" which was a nod to its eponymous protagonist's primary occupation as a monster hunter.[13] Netflix's co-chief executive officer and chief content officer Ted Sarandos confirmed alongside other Netflix series that the second season was getting a premiere in Q4 2021.[14] In July 2021, it was announced that the series would be premiering on December 17.[15]

Filming[edit]

Filming for the second season took place at Arborfield Film Studios, in the United Kingdom at 40 miles of London. The studio contains a 100-plus-year-old former army barracks, which served to film the main stages of the season.[23][24] At Arbofield Film Studios, it's backlot used to make several variety of villages, including Kaer Mohern. Filming locations for the second season were all in the UK and included Cathedral Cave and Hodge Close Quarry in the Lake District,[25] Low Force Waterfall in the North Pennines[26] and Bourne Wood in Farnham.[27] Coldharbour Wood in Chichester, was used to film the elven village hidden amongst the trees.[28] Other filming locations include Deepcut Surrey, Low Force Waterfall, Gordale Scar, Plumpton Rocks, Fountain Abbey, and the Freshman Ponds[29] It began in London in early 2020, but was halted for two weeks in March due to concerns over the COVID-19 pandemic[30] and actor Kristofer Hivju's confirmation that he tested positive for COVID-19.[31] Then, in May 2020, film and television productions that were filming in the UK were given permission to resume filming, including season two of The Witcher.[32] The show resumed pre-production in July and officially resumed filming on August 12, 2020,[33][34] with filming for the second season expected to extend into early 2021.[35] On November 7, 2020, production was halted again after a number of crew members had tested positive for COVID-19.[36] Production resumed two weeks later on November 24, 2020, and continued in December despite Cavill's on-set injury.[37] Filming for the second season wrapped on April 2, 2021.[38]

Release[edit]

In April 2021, it was revealed that the second season of The Witcher, would be releasing in Q4 of the same year.[44] All the eight episodes of the first season were released by Netflix on December 17, 2021.[45]

Reception[edit]

Critical response[edit]

The second season received positive reviews. Rotten Tomatoes reports a 94% approval rating with an average rating of 7.9/10, based on 50 reviews. The website's critical consensus reads: "The Witcher's second season expands on its first in all the best ways—and most importantly, it remains a whole lot of fun."[46] Metacritic calculated a weighted average score of 68 out of 100 based on 21 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[47]

Critic Sheena Scott from Forbes favorably commented: "Throughout the episodes, characters repeatedly point out their resemblance—a similar attitude, the same hairstyle—to keep on reminding the viewers of their daughter-father bond. But as the ending of Season 2 indicates, it looks like it is this very bond that may be put into jeopardy in the next season."[48] Angie Han from The Hollywood Reporter, praised the series for being an improvement over it's previous season, although it may not be perfect. She commented the series: "In its second outing, The Witcher feels confident enough to open itself up to that whole array of feelings."[49] In a more negative review, Roxana Hadadi from Vulture, stated "In its second season, The Witcher is most engaging when exploring the alliances and allegiances between Geralt, Yennefer, and Ciri and when using those three to consider Nivellen's insistence that "Monsters are born of deeds alone. Unforgivable ones." But in its attempt to build a bigger world, the series falls prey to more fantasy tropes than it masters."[50] Author Leigh Butler deemed the second season as an improvement over it's previous season, praising it's deeper themes, better storyline, performances, and finally aproaching it's potential, and stated: "Season 2 (so far) is better, and working its way toward potentially great. When it comes down to it, there is really only one thing any story needs to accomplish, and The Witcher has accomplished it."[51]

James Whitbrook from io9 said: "The new focus on character-building might mean less focus on specific short stories from Sapkowski's collection of Witcher tales, but it makes the show's world feel more expansive and nuanced in ways it didn't until late in the show's first season, while still keeping things centered on the characters as the sense of scale expands."[52] Nick Schager in a negative review stated: "Even by typical fantasy-genre standards, the show indulges in so much make-believe terminology, and at such an incessant clip, that it quickly proves easier to give up trying to make heads or tails of every detail and instead just go with the wonky narrative flow.",[53] while Allison Keene from Paste commented in a positive review: "More than anything though, The Witcher's excellent Season 2 is a deeper dive into a rich world that shines in its focus on Ciri and Geralt's relationship, and how that connection influences everything around them. Though there are plenty of things to quibble over from book to screen (or from videogame screen, although the show is expressly pulled from the page), The Witcher is perhaps best viewed and accepted as a fresh translation of an old fable."[54] Critic Carly Lane from Collider gave a positive feedback: "By comparison, Season 2 is finally settling into its stride and has an even better sense of what works while discarding more of what didn't — although there are still the occasional unannounced time-jumps forward, or surprise character introductions, that demand attentiveness rather than any distracted background viewing."[55]

Audience viewership[edit]

On December 21, 2021, it was reported that the second season of The Witcher managed to get a position at Netflix's top 10 ratings list for the week of December 13-19. It was reported that the show managed to get over 142 million of hours viewed in it's first three days;[56] the show ranked at the top ten titles in 80 countries.[57]

Documentary specials[edit]

On December 17, 2021, alongside the release of the second season a making-of about the second season of the show titled Making the Witcher: Season 2. It features the behind-the-scenes footage for the eight episodes of the season, interviews of the crew, and deleted scenes.[58] The Witcher Bestiary Season 1, Part 1, and The Witcher Bestiary Season 1, Part 2, were also released. The documentary explains all the monsters appearing in the show.[59] The Characters of the Continent which was also released, explain the world of Elves, Dwarves, Mages, and Witchers with behind-the-scenes footage and interviews of the crew.[60]The Witcher: Fireplace contains a video of a virtual fireplace, accompanied with instrumental music.[61]
