Prequel Show to The Witcher!

News came out recently that the show, The Witcher based on the novels by Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski is getting a spin off show called Witcher Blood Origin. Lauren Hissrich the show runner of the six part series is excited. According to Lauren’s twitter it has been the hardest secret to keep. Judging by the tweet she is excited!

 This has been the toughest secret to keep! I’ve always wanted to dive deeper into the myth and lore of the Continent, and now fans will have a chance to explore it with @declandebarra in a prequel series, The Witcher: BLOOD ORIGIN. Elves, and enemies, and the end, oh my…

 According to my source eurogamer.net, It will be a prequel story set 1200 years before Geralt and the events we’re familiar with, and will chart the origin of the Witchers and how they came to be. Hissrich confirmed Witcher author Andrzej Sapkowski will, “Hell yes,” be involved.

 Although I haven’t read The Witcher novels (I want to eventually) I fell in love with the show and watched and re-watched it. I actually liked The Witcher better than Game of Thrones even. To know that there will be a prequel show with the author involved is exciting. We’ll see how The Witchers will become who they are and the origin. I will update when I find out more.
