Netflix’s The Witcher is Bringing Politics, Sex, and Monsters
The showrunner for Netflix's take on The Witcher, Lauren Hissrich, has revealed new details about the upcoming "very adult" show.
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, she explained "We’re not adapting the video games, it’s a straight adaptation of the books. Which is great as the video games are also an adaptation of the books. They went one direction, we actually get to go another."

More than that, though, there was something appealing about that big cheesy grin, that boundless enthusiasm. And now that a new Reno card – Reno the Relicologist - has been revealed, it’s been cool to discover that a great deal of Reno’s charm comes straight from the voice actor who plays him, Travis Willingham.

Where the E3 demo had skipped between sections featuring Captain America and Black Widow, this demo lingered for a little longer, showing the wider devastation being caused by an attack on San Francisco.
