Geralt of Rivia's voice, familiar to fans of the Witcher games, returns in Netflix's latest animated offering. "The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep," a spin-off film set during the first season of the Netflix series, features Doug Cockle reprising his iconic role.
IGN critic Jarrod Jones notes that while the pairing of Cockle's Geralt and Joey Batey's Jaskier holds appeal, its charm might be limited to dedicated fans. Regardless, it offers a potential bridge to the eagerly anticipated Witcher 4.

The Broader Witcher Universe
The Witcher franchise originated with Sapkowski's book series, depicting Geralt in a world inspired by Slavic mythology. CD Projekt Red's video game adaptations, especially "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt," achieved critical acclaim, leading to spin-offs and collaborations (including a real-life Gwent card game). The Witcher 4, featuring a new protagonist, was announced at the 2024 Game Awards.
Netflix's live-action series, initially starring Henry Cavill, has spanned three seasons. Season four, starring Liam Hemsworth as Geralt, is slated for an April release.
