Netflix's live-action The Witcher prequel Blood Origin gets new trailer



While we continue to wrestle with the fact Henry Cavill has whipped off his white Witcher wig for the very last time, Netflix is forging ever onward into the Witcherverse, this time with a new trailer for its upcoming live-action prequel Blood Origin.

Blood Origin isnt Netflixs first Witcher prequel, of course; last year saw the streaming service release an animated movie called The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf, focusing on Geralt of Rivias friend and mentor Vesemir.

Blood Origin, though, goes some considerable way further back in the series timeline, telling a story set 1,200 years before Geralt and the events were familiar with from Polish author Andrzej Sapkowskis books, CD Projekts games, and Netflixs existing TV show.
