K.J. Yossman Anya Chalotra has enchanted “The Witcher” audience as Yennefer of Vengerberg for two seasons, and reprises the role again in Season 3 — this time promising a “new phase” for the sorceress.
Last year, her co-star Henry Cavill shockingly revealed that this season is set to be his last (the role of Geralt will be taken over by Liam Hemsworth), but Chalotra isn’t going anywhere. “There are so many situations Yennefer hasn’t been in yet,” the actor tells Variety. “And it’s only until I experience that with the character that I know where she would go, how she chooses to get out of a certain situation or get into one.” Chalotra — who was as surprised by Cavill’s exit as the fans were (“We didn’t know until after we’d filmed Season 3,” she says) — has already been in touch with Hemsworth by email, and is “excited” for him to bring a new energy to the show.
Ahead of Season 3, Volume 1 of “The Witcher” dropping on June 29 (Volume 2 will follow on July 27), Chalotra sat down with Variety to discuss Yennefer and Geralt’s relationship, her chemistry with Hemsworth and the other projects she hopes to take on some day. What can you tell us about Yennefer’s arc this season? Well, after how we finished last season and that portrayal, she’s got a lot of work to do.
She’s really got to make it up to Geralt and Ciri — or rather, prove that she can be trusted. And figure out what she wants as well.
