First Reactions To 'The Witcher' Are In

It's not long now before we all get to see what Henry and the rest of the cast and crew of The Witcher have in store for us in Season 1. But some lucky journalists have already gotten a sneak peek and so far their first reactions have been really positive!

Blown away by the action and visuals so far for Netflix's The Witcher. Seeing Geralt of Rivia's unique sword style brought to life onscreen is amazing. pic.twitter.com/5hGuiIaJ9B

Standout performers in Netflix's The Witcher S1 so far are Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia, Anya Chalotra as Yennefer, and Joey Batey as Jaskier. #TheWitcher #Netflix pic.twitter.com/TK578I0Cc0

Some of the action and sword work choreography for The Witcher is some of the best I can recall for a sword and sorcery/fantasy series of this type in years. #TheWitcherNetflix #TheWitcher #Netflix pic.twitter.com/AG2Qnx7x3r

Watching the screeners for @witchernetflix. I'll admit, as a huge fan of the books, I was a little worried, but @LHissrich has done a masterful job telling this story. It also helps that the cast is amazing! And Henry Cavill, just ... wow. #TheWitcher pic.twitter.com/xdFnYtRN4j

Embargo sucks but this show shure won't. And @LHissrich didn't lie saying that Henry IS Geralt ⚔️🐺🤐🤐🤐🤐

The fight choreography is insane. First fight Geralt gets into is beautifully savage. The blend of swordplay and Geralt’s signs is perfection#TheWitcher pic.twitter.com/8JaXGfltIO

I have watched the first two episodes and I can say this :
- the best sword fighting scene I have ever seen.
- I have laughed and I have cried (twice already).

Don't be anxious, you have done a wonderful job. This show has a soul of its own. Can't wait to savour the rest.
