Netflix has already renewed its upcoming original show The Witcher for a second season, the company has announced. The show’s first season is scheduled to debut on the streaming service just ahead of Christmas, giving fans access to the first full batch of episodes just in time for the holiday season. The series is based on the video game franchise with the same name.
Netflix’s The Witcher is an adaption from Lauren Schmidt Hissrich that focuses on Geralt, the monster hunter from the video game. Henry Cavill, the actor best known for his role as Superman, will be starring in the show’s leading role. News of the renewal comes directly from Netflix US.

Still, Netflix has proven that it’s quick to scrap shows that don’t perform to its expectations, meaning only time will tell whether The Witcher ends up being among the somewhat rare long-running original shows on the platform.
