On her Twitter profile, Lauren S. Hissrich, showrunner for ‘ The Witcher ‘, revealed that the season 2 recordings of the series have already resumed.
By posting a picture of the set, she showed that the team is wearing protective masks and shields, everyone is respecting safety measures to prevent the spread of the Coronavirus.
In the publication, Hissrich is with a co-worker, while some employees appear in the background.
She even joked that her son did not recognize her because of the mask when they talked over a video call.
According to Redanian Intelligence, the shootings of the new episodes will be completed in February 2021.
Before the Coronavirus pandemic, production had stopped for six months, between February and August 2020. Several changes caused by the Coronavirus pandemic forced the production team to add two more months of planning.
As filming is resuming gradually starting this week, it is expected that everything will be ready by the beginning of next year, when the post-production stage will begin.
Due to the delay, the premiere of the new episodes is likely to be delayed by a few months.
However, details on the release date, which was originally scheduled for the summer of 2021 (between June and September), were not revealed.
Meanwhile, it is worth remembering that the episodes of the 1st season are now available on Netflix.
