While waiting for its debut to the general public, The Witcher 3 continues to be on the lips of all fans who are intent on opening a series of debates every day with the aim of hypothesizing what the series will be able to offer from the point of view narrative. After recently discovering that the script will be very faithful to the original book from which it takes direct inspiration, there are also some interesting revelations from actor Joey Batey, who plays the role of Jaskier in The Witcher 3. Let’s find out together what it is.
Joey Batey in The Witcher 3
The fantasy TV series The Witcher tells the story of the monster hunter Geralt of Rivia, played by Henry Cavill, who has a fate close to that of Princess Ciri, played by Freya Allen.
In addition to the two protagonists of the series, who often accompany Geralt on his travels across the continent, we also find the character of Yennefer of Vengerberg, the sorceress played by Anya Chalotra. And then again, in the very long list of characters present in the work, there is the bard Jaskier, played by Joey Batey. Let’s find out what the latter had to say about his role in season 3 of the franchise!
Jaskier in The Witcher 3
Joey Batey, during a recent interview with GamesRadar+according towhat is reported, revealed to fans that the character he plays will be subject to one or more love dynamics, further adding that this new season will bring viewers the strongest episodes ever seen within the previous productions of the franchise. The actor did not go into detail and therefore left the fans without too many certainties. However, what is conceivable, according to reports, is that, since Jaskier is based on a character named Dandelion in the books by Andrzej Sapkowski, he could therefore be involved with Anna Henrietta, Vespula and Essi Daven. Obviously these are only conjectures, to find out we just have to wait for the debut of this new season on the streaming platform scheduled for the summer of 2023.
In the meantime, below we share his words with you so that you can get a more precise idea:
For me when I first read the scripts, they were the best scripts that I think we’ve done so far. There are some things about the books that I think fans will really enjoy. And some really lovely key moments that are very epic. Jaskier also has a small love interest, maybe more than one.
Henry Cavill’s Farewell
One of the sore points that in the last period has made a lot of talk about itself is the non-renewal of Henry Cavill in his leading role. The character will in fact be interpreted in the next productions by Liam Hemsworth. In this regard, Joey Batey also commented on GamesRadar+ on this important aspect, however, saying he was enthusiastic and confident.
Of course I will miss Henry very much. Henry and I are very good friends and he has been the champion of the show, the gravitas of the show, and the driving force behind the show for four years. And we get along really well, he’s always the first one to have a little laugh in the corner, so on a personal level, I’m going to miss him. But Liam, I’ve talked to him a bit already, he’s diving deep into this myth, I’m really excited to work with him and see the kind of play he’s going to put together. I think it’s exciting.
While waiting for new information, we remind you that on Amazon they are available for purchase video games for consoles and also the casket with the books from which these productions have taken direct inspiration.
