The Witcher's Newest Animated Adventure

A Coastal Conflict on the Continent

Netflix Tudum, the official news source, confirms the February 11, 2025 release of The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep. This animated film adapts Andrzej Sapkowski's short story, "A Little Sacrifice," from Sword of Destiny.

The story unfolds in a coastal village, where a centuries-old conflict between humans and merfolk compels a Continent kingdom to enlist Geralt's services. This time, Geralt faces a different kind of threat, trading typical monsters for the aquatic dangers of merpeople.

Returning to voice Geralt is Doug Cockle. Joey Batey and Anya Chalotra reprise their roles as Jaskier and Yennefer, respectively. Christina Wren, known for Will Trent, joins the cast as the new character, Essi Daven.

Sapkowski acts as a creative consultant, while Mike Ostrowski and Rae Benjamin (writers for the live-action series) pen the script. Kang Hei Chul, storyboard artist for The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf, directs the film.

A Placement Within the Live-Action Timeline

The film's narrative seamlessly integrates into the live-action series, fitting between episodes 5 and 6 of season 1. Following Geralt and Yennefer's reunion in Rinde after the Djinn incident, Geralt is hired to resolve a coastal monster problem.

The film's location is likely situated between Redania and Temeria, possibly Bremervoord City in Temeria, ruled by Duke Agloval, as suggested by "A Little Sacrifice." However, the extent to which the film adheres to the short story remains to be seen.
