Yeah, there was an animated movie (which Netflix of course labeled as an anime) called Nightmare of the Wolf. It was a prequel starring Vesemir and showcased the series of events leading to the pogrom of the witchers at Kaer Morhen. And of course, like everything Netflix does, it ignored the established canon from the books to do its own thing and made the witchers all complete and corrupt assholes who fully deserved their genocide. Because that is all men can be in Hissrich's mind.
That was my question as well. If you did not mention this was connected to the Witcher could anyone tell from that trailer?
This could have just as easily been ROP or the new D&D remake.
Does this spin-off have any basis in the source material or is this a typical way for Netflix to add “diversity”
Nope. None of the Shitflix Witcher spinoffs do. Hell, not even the main show has any basis in the source material.
Which is why I love that Cavill walked. Now the crap writers are doing damage control.
First season was loosely based on the books.
There is more than one spinoff?
