### What Is It About?

After a war-torn Continent tears the trio apart, Geralt, Yennefer and Ciri fight to survive and find their way back to each other. Netflix has said Seasons 4 and 5 were filmed back to back, adapting the final three Sapkowski novels: *Baptism of Fire*, *The Tower of the Swallow* and *Lady of the Lake*.

### The Hemsworth Question

The biggest talking point was always the casting change. Hemsworth’s Geralt divided fans, and reports note the season holds the series’ lowest Rotten Tomatoes score at 60%. Still, viewers who stuck with it often praised his more emotionally open take on the White Wolf. For series background, the [Wikipedia page for The Witcher](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Witcher_(TV_series)) is a solid primer.

### What About Season 5?

Season 5 is the **final season**, and filming has wrapped. Netflix first pointed to late 2026, but reports say it has quietly moved into **2027**. Netflix hasn’t confirmed an exact date, so keep an eye on the [official Netflix Tudum](https://www.netflix.com/tudum) for announcements.
