In this episode of the Temple of Geek podcast, Suhaila is joined by guests Maria and JJ to discuss the new Netflix limited series “The Witcher: Blood Origin”.
Set in an elven world 1200 years before the world of The Witcher, Blood Origin tells a story lost to time – one of seven outcasts who unite against an unstoppable power that took everything from them. Their blood quest gives rise to a prototype Witcher in a conflict that brings about the “conjunction of the spheres,” when the worlds of monsters, men, and elves merged to become one.

The Witcher: Blood Origin
Every story has a beginning. Witness the untold history of the Continent with The Witcher: Blood Origin, a new prequel series set in an elven world 1200 years before the events of The Witcher. Blood Origin will tell a story lost to time – exploring the creation of the first prototype Witcher, and the events that lead to the pivotal “Conjunction of the Spheres,” when the worlds of monsters, men, and elves merged to become one.
Based on stories by the Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski, The Witcher has become a popular videogame franchise and has spawned two series for Netflix. The Witcher: Blood Origin stars Sophia Brown, Michelle Yeoh, Lenny Henry, and Laurence O’Fuarain.
The Witcher: Blood Origin will release on December 25th, 2022, only on Netflix.
