It looks like the filming of Netflix's adaptation of the Witcher novel is coming to an end. According to the Redanian Intelligence website, the majority of cast and crew have wrapped up the work and left the filming location in Budapest.
A few weeks ago, we got the that Netflix's Witcher will release sometime in Q4 2019. Netflix's Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos said that a lot of new, exclusive shows will arrive to the world's biggest streaming platform in the last three months of 2019, including the adaptation of the novel series by Andrzej Sapkowski - The Witcher.
Today, we have some new details, suggesting that the filming on Netflix's Witcher is indeed going as planned and that it shouldn't be long before the series enter post-production. The hints come from the cast and filming crew who bid farewell to Budapest, which is the main filming location for the series.
