The second season of “The Witcher” resumed production in the United Kingdom today as planned, an individual with knowledge told TheWrap.
Netflix announced in June that the Henry Cavill-led series would pick up filming again Aug. 17 after being shut down due to the coronavirus in mid-March. Production had first begun in February.
“The Witcher” is planning on premiering its new season sometime in 2021. Its first season, which debuted at the end of 2019, became the streaming service’s most-watched (per its own internal metrics) series ever.
