'The Witcher' is adapted from a fantasy series by Polish author An­drzej Sap­kowski. The books have previously provided the source material for a film, television series and highly popular video game series.

Netflix has described their series as "an epic tale of fate and family."

The official logline reads:

"Geralt of Rivia, a solitary monster hunter, struggles to find his place in a world where people often prove more wicked than beasts.

"But when destiny hurtles him toward a powerful sorceress, and a young princess with a dangerous secret, the three must learn to navigate the increasingly volatile Continent together."

Cavill has taken the lead role of Geralt in the series.
