"It seems a Mads Mikelsen has become a fan favourite to play Gwynbleidd. the Butcher of Blaviken in the upcoming Witcher series on Netflix. In fact, a lot of Witcher fans have started petition to have Mads play the role of Geralt.

Netflix on the otherhand is quite hush hush about the cast. Internal sources suggest that the script of the pilot episode is complete & they have began principal photography of different locations. This show will be based on the original novels by Andrzej Sapkowski & not on the games. Meaning it will more dark & violent than what has been depicted in the games."
