'THE WITCHER' 2ND SEASON
CASTS CARMEL LANIADO
The first season was a record breaker for Netflix, as it was seen by almost 80 million people around the world, so it is no wonder the 2nd season of THE WITCHER is a definite yes. As Deadline reports, filming is already under way over in UK and now we have the first new cast member announced: Carmel
Laniado will appear in a number of episodes as Violet, a young girl whose playful and whimsical demeanour is a front for a smarter and more sadistic character. Henry Cavill returns as a solitary monster hunter who struggles to find his place in a world where people often prove more wicked than beasts.

Strangers showing kindness in NY? I don’t believe it unless it’s happening somewhere way upstate. Lol. Ughh, I promised multiple people that I would watch The Witcher. We need to give it another try at a time that I can focus. We got about 3/4 of the way through and shut it off because I had a hard time following it.
ReplyDeleteAfter reloading the page, I was able to watch the trailer. It actually looks like a really good movie!
DeleteI loved the first episode of Witcher, then hated the second and the third one, then loved the fourth one which is where I'm currently at :) My problem is that I find Yennefer off-putting and unlikeable, unlike Geralt and Ciri who are nice.
DeleteI found a lot of kind people in New York. Ran into quite a few assholes too. I love the last part of the trailer where she says “just be kind”. It’s something that every one of us can improve with ourselves.
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing the kindness will be more and more extinct as most of the millennials are raised to be self-observed and spoilt. They make it a piece of news over at Facebook when somebody does something good, which means it is rare as hell.
DeleteSadly, we're losing touch with our fellow man. Everyone is so self absorbed these days, it seems like the only time someone wants to bless another is if the cameras are rolling and they can make their act go viral. Jason did something so completely generous to our Uber driver in Washington, then turned and looked at Allison and said, this doesn't get mentioned to anyone. I hope she learned that day that act of kindness do not need to be filmed or announced, but can still make an impact when nobody is watching. We're trying our best not to raise entitled children in this ever growing me, me, me world.
DeleteThey all think they're stars and princess these days and will manipulate with everything to get in the media. I mean they take MeAgain Markle for a role model, a daft tart who uses everything to garner media attention on herself and is all me me me me...
