Did Witcher Recast Ciri? Why She Looks Different In Season 2
The Witcher season 2's Ciri looks very different, but did the Netflix series recast the major character? The first season of The Witcher introduced people around the world to the high-fantasy realm in which Geralt of Rivia (Henry Cavill) resides. The show took viewers on a journey as Geralt slew various monsters, encountered the powerful sorceress Yennefer (Anya Chalotra), and finally met Ciri (Freya Allan) after her long search for him. The bond between Geralt and Ciri through the Law of Surprise continues in season 2, with Yennefer being added to their found family.
The story of The Witcher season 2 follows Yennefer, as she tries to regain her powers, and eventually crosses paths with Geralt and Ciri. In addition, the season 2 villain, the Hut Witch, seeks Ciri's body in order to use her powers for opening a portal to another dimension, unleashing monsters on Geralt. A key part of The Witcher season 2 was further exploring the power that lies within Ciri and the final reveal as she's asked to join the Wild Hunts. As exciting as The Witcher season 2 was, some viewers are puzzled by Ciri's new look, and whether or not she was recast.
