Following Henry Cavill, Netflix has announced the cast of their eight episode Witcher series, which is now filming.

Word of Ciri's casting has been a point of contention for Witcher fans.

In an interview with THR, showrunner Lauren S. Hissrich touched on the backlash. The love here is wonderful, and the hate is enlightening, like a real-life Trial of the Grasses, except I HAVE to read less and write more - or we won't have a damn finale.

Now that we know Allan is playing Ciri, it seems that the casting call didn't carry much weight after all. "Be nice to each other, okay?"

Trump on Twitter on Tuesday said he was "very proud" of Kavanaugh and his family, and disparaged the anti-Kavanaugh protesters. She said that the disruptions during the hearing and Supreme Court protests were "not what we want for our country".

However, Hissrich also noted, "One of the things I feel most strongly about is people being afraid that we're going to strip out the cultural context of The Witcher, to remove its Slavic roots, the very thing people in Poland are proud of".

We've gotten a lot of news today regarding the highly anticipated Netflix adaptation of the beloved The Witcher books, but many were wondering about if the creative team would work in a few video game-specific nods into the upcoming series as well. "I can't wait for these wonderful actors to bring such iconic and loved characters to life on screen and to share these special stories with viewers all over the world". Now, at last, Netflix has unveiled nine more casting decisions.

"What's interesting is the first couple books are told from Geralt's perspective and when I was reading them I saw that there are all these other characters who are very strong and powerful; not just the women, by the way", said Hissrich. Unfortunately, fans are not too happy with Netflix's choice for Yennefer.

Currently, The Witcher doesn't have a release window and the show is still in pre-production.
