Geralt of Rivia returns! Well, his voice, anyway. Netflix expands its Witcher universe with Sirens of the Deep, an animated film set during the first season of the live-action series. Doug Cockle, the voice of Geralt in the acclaimed video games, once again lends his talents to the monster hunter.
IGN critic Jarrod Jones notes that while the pairing of Cockle's Geralt and Joey Batey's Jaskier (who also returns) has its appeal, it may primarily resonate with dedicated Witcher fans. Still, it might help bridge the gap until the arrival of The Witcher 4.

Hired to investigate attacks on a seaside village, mutant monster hunter Geralt unravels an age-old conflict between humans and sea people that threatens war between kingdoms. Aided by allies, he must solve the mystery before hostilities escalate.
