    'The Witcher' Resumes Production Without Injured Henry Cavill

    by

    Netflix

    The actor playing Geralt of Rivia in the Netflix hit series is said to be in recovery after sustaining a leg muscle injury during filming and was allegedly unable to walk properly following the set incident.

    Dec 14, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Production on Netflix hit “The Witcher” has resumed without leading man Henry Cavill after he injured his leg on set.
    According to sources, the actor was wearing a safety harness above the set when the injury occurred, and although Henry was not hospitalised, filming was halted as the star couldn’t walk properly, according to The Sun, and doctors told him to rest.
    A source tells the publication: “The filming has been hit because of what happened to Henry. He was on an assault course and injured his leg. He just suddenly pulled up and was clearly in a lot of pain. It wasn’t clear if an object had hit his leg or it was some sort of hamstring or muscle injury.”

    “It wasn’t bad enough to need an ambulance but it’s messed up the filming schedule as he can’t walk properly.”
    Filming at Arborfield Studios in London has now continued without Cavill, who is recovering from what Deadline sources claim is a minor leg muscle injury sustained during production.
    Production on “The Witcher”‘s second season has already been suspended twice – first in March, when actor Kristofer Hivju revealed he had tested positive for the coronavirus, and then last month following multiple positive COVID-19 cases.
    Season 2 official logline reads, “Convinced Yennefer’s (Anya Chalotra) life was lost at the Battle of Sodden, Geralt of Rivia (Henry Cavill) brings Princess Cirilla (Freya Allan) to the safest place he knows, his childhood home of Kaer Morhen. While the Continent’s kings, elves, humans and demons strive for supremacy outside its walls, he must protect the girl from something far more dangerous: the mysterious power she possesses inside.”

      Henry Cavill's 'The Witcher' Resumes Filming Amid Covid-19 Pandemic

      by

      Netflix

      The crew members of the Netflix fantasy series starring the ‘Man of Steel’ hunk are back on set to resume filming the upcoming second season following hiatus.
      Aug 14, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Filming has resumed on season two of Henry Cavill’s Netflix fantasy series “The Witcher” following a hiatus due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
      The show was expected to resume filming on Monday (17Aug20), as indicated in a tweet from the show’s official Twitter account last month, and Stephen Surjik, who directed two episodes of the first season, told fans on Wednesday the show is already up and running again.
      He captioned a post of a camera ready to film, “It’s T minus 3 min to ignition and lift off for our second run at Witcher S2. Everyone is being cautious but spirits are high. You’re looking out new covid communication system (sic), reducing close contact among crew.”
      Henry, who plays Geralt of Rivia, a magically enhanced monster-hunter known as “witcher” in the show, is yet to confirm whether he has arrived on set to begin filming his scenes. The first series was shot in Eastern Europe and Spain.
      The release date for the second series is yet to be announced, but its original run proved hugely popular and was watched in 76 million households, a record for a debut season on Netflix. Bosses at the streaming service have also announced a prequel series, titled “Blood Origin”.

      Netflix

      The cast and crew members of the Netflix series are scheduled to resume filming the second season roughly five months after the production was shut down due to pandemic.
      Jun 23, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Production on actor Henry Cavill’s TV hit “The Witcher” has been green-lighted to begin again on August 17, 2020.
      Cast and crew will get back to the second season of the Netflix series after the coronavirus pandemic shut down all filming projects in the U.K. and U.S. in mid-March 2020.
      “The Witcher” was one of the first major shows to shut down, on the same day star Kristofer Hivju tested positive for COVID-19.
      Last week, Deadline sources revealed Universal’s “Jurassic World: Dominion” will be the first major studio movie to re-start filming in the U.K. on July 6, 2020 at Pinewood Studios near London.
      Producers of “The Witcher”, which shoots at Arborfield Studios – just outside the capital, confirm the restart in a Twitter message that read, “I’m dusting off my lute and quill / I have some news, some mead to spill / After all the months we’ve been apart / It’s time for production to restart / The Witcher and his bard – who’s flawless / Will reunite on set 17 August.”
