Doug Cockle will voice Geralt in a new The Witcher animated film on Netflix
10.11.2023 - 23:19 / pcgamer.com / Henry Cavill / Doug Cockle / Will
If you can't get enough of The Witcher in the The Witcher Netflix series or the other The Witcher Netflix series or that The Witcher Netflix animated movie, how about this: yet another The Witcher Netflix animated movie!
Netflix has announced The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep, an animated feature pitting a cartoon Geralt against a society of merfolk. It's probably not a surprise that Henry Cavill won't be voicing Geralt, considering he walked away from his Witcher duties last year, but that's OK: the wonderful Doug Cockle, voice of Geralt in the videogame series, is taking the role instead. Damn straight.
Don't grab your remote control yet, though. The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep is scheduled for late 2024.
«Geralt of Rivia, a mutated monster hunter, is hired to investigate a series of attacks in a seaside village and finds himself drawn into a centuries-old conflict between humans and merpeople,» Netflix says. «He must count on friends—old and new—to solve the mystery before the hostilities between the two kingdoms escalate into all-out war.»
The announcement teaser at the top doesn't show much, but check out the slightly longer announcement teaser below in which Geralt is hired to help a seaside town with monster slaying, but gets quickly drawn into a old, festering conflict between the surface world and a militarized undersea society.
I'm not really a Witcher fan so I can't really say I'm excited to see Geralt go up against The Little Mermaid and her family, but the art and animation look good and it is genuinely nice to hear Doug Cockle voicing the gruff hero again. And let me provide an answer to an inevitable question: yes, Geralt does appear topless in a bath in the animated film. Of course he does:

The Witcher Creator Notes That The Netflix Series Team Never Listens To His Ideas
When it comes to The Witcher, it’s one of the best examples of having adaptations across multiple forms of media and having those adaptations be good. It started as a book series, then was picked up by CD Projekt Red, who turned it into an award-winning gaming franchise, and then Netflix grabbed it, and they’ve had three seasons of it on their streaming service, with a spinoff or two to boot. So you’d think that franchise fans and those associated with it would be happy with everything happening. However, when it comes to the franchise’s creator, he does have some bitter feelings.

The Witcher Creator Says Netflix "Never Listened" To His Ideas
The Witcher series hasn't been doing too well in recent years, routinely angering fans by straying too far from the source material, putting little effort into CGI and costumes, and replacing Geralt of Rivia actor Henry Cavill with Liam Hemsworth for future seasons. Cavill's departure was the turning point for a lot of fans, who have been rallying against the show ever since. Now, they have a new reason to be angry.

CD Projekt announce free Witcher 3 mod editor for release in 2024
CD Projekt have announced that they're working on a free mod editor for The Witcher 3, allowing you to write entire new quests for grizzly Geralt, or just make him walk around with no trousers on, which he spends every other cutscene doing anyway. There are already many mods for the venerable fantasy RPG, of course - the options range from mods that give you Henry Cavill's face to mods that simulate the effects of long Covid to raise awareness - but the editor should make life easier for the internet's Geralt-whisperers. Better late than never.
