Stream "The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep" and Explore Its Timeline

Geralt of Rivia's voice, familiar to Witcher game fans, returns in Netflix's latest animated offering, Sirens of the Deep. This animated film, a spin-off set during Season 1 of the Netflix series, features Doug Cockle reprising his iconic role.

IGN critic Jarrod Jones notes that while the pairing of Cockle's Geralt and Joey Batey's Jaskier holds appeal, its charm might be limited to dedicated fans. Nevertheless, it could serve as a satisfying bridge until the release of The Witcher 4.
