The headline act here is Kristofer Hivju, who played the larger than life Tormund Giantsbane in Game of Thrones. In The Witcher, Hivju plays Nivellen, a cursed aristocrat who lives in a secluded manor.

News is out. I'll be bringing #Lambert to the screen in #TheWitcherNetflix
Thankyou for your kind comments.@witchernetflix
What - A - Production. What a world to step into! Pumped to join the team
"Lambert, Lambert - What a prick!"Here's the list announced today by Netflix: 
Recent reports claimed Mark Hamill was offered the part of Vesemir, but he's not on this latest list. But then neither is Geralt of Rivia's mentor, so there's still hope.
- Yasen Atour as Coen
- Agnes Bjorn as Vereena
- Paul Bullion as Lambert
- Kristofer Hivju as Nivellen
- Thue Ersted Rasmussen as Eskel
- Aisha Fabienne Ross as Lydia
- Mecia Simson as Francesca
Of course, Henry Cavill returns as Geralt, Anya Chalotra returns as Yennefer, Freya Allan is back as Ciri and Joey Batey is Jaskier. Production is kicking off now for a 2021 launch.
I still have no idea what this is or what it's about, but I DO know they haven't ever asked me to play Vesemir... yet.#CallMyAgent https://twitter.com/IGN/status/1209492950125813761 …898 people are talking about this
We had a lovely chinwag about The Witcher show in a recent episode of the Eurogamer podcast, which you can listen to below.
