The Witcher<\/em> is turning out to be a very big property for Netflix. Netflix green lit a second season for its mainline TV series before the first season – which was well-received by fans – even premiered. After the first season was in the books, Netflix announced an anime movie spin-off, but it turns out that isn’t the only spin-off Witcher<\/em> fans are getting.<\/p>\n

Netflix today announced a 6-part miniseries called The Witcher: Blood Origin<\/em>. As the name suggests, this will dive into the origin of the Witchers, so this miniseries will predate Geralt and his adventures significantly – Netflix says that the events of Blood Origin<\/em> take place a whopping 1,200 years before Geralt lived.<\/p>\n

“1200 years before Geralt of Rivia, the worlds of monsters, men and elves merged into one, and the first Witcher came to be,” Netflix said in a tweet today. The series will be created by Declan de Barra and Lauren Schmidt Hissrich; de Barra wrote one of the episodes of the mainline Witcher series, while Hissrich served as showrunner on the series (in addition to creating it and writing a couple of episodes for it).<\/p>\n

Elsewhere on Twitter, Hissrich herself chimed in on the announcement, revealing that she’s been keeping this secret for a while. “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,” Hissrich wrote. “Elves, and enemies, and the end, oh my…”<\/p>\n

So, Hissrich is already setting Blood Origin<\/em> up for a big ending. At the moment, there are no details on when The Witcher: Blood Origin<\/em> might premiere, but we’ll let you know when Netflix and Hissrich announce more.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
