The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep – The Witcher Anime heading to Netflix next month – will take place in the middle of the live-action show, specifically between episodes 5 and 6, and includes a scene that was cut from the first Henry Cavill season.
The writers say they don't interfere with the chronology or timeline of the live-action show, but the anime includes a “funny little scene” that was reportedly cut from the main Netflix series.
What exactly does that scene entail? We'll have to wait until the show debuts on February 11, unfortunately, the writers wouldn't say more. But as we know, Anya Chalotra reprises her role as Yennefer in the anime, the writers tease that we will see more of Geralt and Yennefer's relationship in Sirens of the Deep.
“Geralt can't let Yennefer go, even though he's doing everything he can,” Ostrowski added. “She's after him. Even if he wanted to get rid of her, he can't.”
As Matt recently recapped for us, two and a half years after The Witcher 4 was announced, CD Projekt finally gave it the big reveal treatment in late 2024, confirming that Ciri is the focus this time around. And now Doug Cockle, the voice of former series protagonist Geralt of Rivia in both the games and the anime, has had his say, calling the change to a new main character a “really interesting move for all sorts of reasons.” .
