Netflix's Animated Witcher Movie: Sirens of the Deep - A February Premiere
Mark your calendars! Netflix is unleashing its next Witcher animated adventure, The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep, on February 11, 2025. Get ready to dive into this exciting new chapter!
A Coastal Conflict in the Witcher Universe
Based on Andrzej Sapkowski's short story, "A Little Sacrifice," from Sword of Destiny, Sirens of the Deep plunges viewers into a seaside village embroiled in a centuries-long conflict between humans and merfolk. This time, Geralt faces a unique challenge – battling not the usual beasties, but mythical sea creatures.
Returning voice actors include Doug Cockle as Geralt, Joey Batey as Jaskier, and Anya Chalotra as Yennefer. A new voice joins the cast: Christina Wren (Will Trent) as Essi Daven. Andrzej Sapkowski himself acts as a creative consultant, while Mike Ostrowski and Rae Benjamin (writers for the live-action series) penned the script. Kang Hei Chul, storyboard artist for The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf, directs.
A Familiar Timeline
The film's narrative seamlessly slots into the timeline of the live-action series, specifically between episodes 5 and 6 of Season 1. Following Geralt and Yennefer's encounter in Rinde, Geralt undertakes a new contract near the coast. While the story's setting may be inspired by Bremervoord City in Temeria, the film's precise location remains a mystery. Only time will reveal how closely it adheres to the source material.
