The Witcher’s showrunner and executive producer, Lauren S. Hissrich has claimed that Season 3 of the show hasn’t been greenlit yet by Netflix.
Hissrich was talking to The Wrap mainly about Season 2 of the Netflix show.
During that conversation, they ended up getting onto the subject of The Witcher Season 3.
It had been previously reported that scripts for Season 3 were already being written.
However, she kind of ‘debunked’ these reports by stating that they’re not even thinking about Season 3 yet.
She claimed that all of their focus is on The Witcher Season 2.
She added that it needed to be “great” for them to have any chance of getting a Season 3.
I have an issue with this statement because Netflix will already know whether Season 2 is good or not.
They’ve seen the rushes. They’ve seen the early edits of the show.
They’ll know if they want a Season 3 or not and they’ll know already if it’s going to be a hit with audiences.
The Witcher Season 3 is still not in the works… says its showrunner…

Here’s what Lauren S. Hissrich had to say on the matter:
No, there has been no formal renewal. In fact, right now my focus is on Season 2. I mean, we have this air date now. We are going to launch on December 17th. There is still a lot of work to be done in post-production, so I am back and forth between Los Angeles and London completing that. And that is just, honestly, where all of our focus is right now because we need a great Season 2 if we have a hope of having a Season 3.
The Witcher Season 2 will land on Netflix on December 17th later this year.
