'The Witcher' showrunner discusses whether Season 3 will be split into two parts.
During an exclusive interview with Collider’s own Steve Weintraub for The Witcher: Blood Origin, The Witcher creator Lauren Schmidt Hissrich discussed the possibility of splitting the upcoming season into multiple parts, as VFX challenges continue to cause delays in Hollywood. Schmidt Hissrich also anticipates at least seven more months of post-production before Season 3’s release, which might weigh in favor of splitting the season.
During the interview with Schmidt Hissrich and Declan De Barra, co-creators of The Witcher: Blood Origin, Weintraub asked when the next season will be available and if Netflix might release the episodes in two parts.

When Will We Get More Witcher on Netflix? To satiate fans’ hunger for more The Witcher content, Schmidt Hissrich has been working on multiple spinoffs that have been released between seasons of the main series. In August 2021, we had the animated feature The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf, which focused on Geralt’s mentor, Vesemir . And just last week, we got the premiere of The Witcher: Blood Origin, a spinoff miniseries that takes place 1200 years before the original series.
