The Witcher's Latest Animated Adventure

A Coastal Conflict on the Continent

Netflix Tudum, the official news source, confirms the February 11, 2025 release date for 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 forces a Continent kingdom to enlist a Witcher. Instead of familiar foes like Basilisks and Cockatrices, Geralt faces a unique challenge: battling merpeople.

Returning to voice Geralt is Doug Cockle. Joey Batey and Anya Chalotra reprise their roles as Jaskier and Yennefer, respectively. Christina Wren (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 screenplay. Kang Hei Chul, storyboard artist for The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf, directs.

A Season 1 Interlude

The film's timeline fits neatly between episodes 5 and 6 of the first season of the live-action series. Following Geralt and Yennefer's reunion in Rinde after the Djinn incident (Episode 5, "Bottled Appetites"), Geralt is hired to resolve a coastal monster problem.

The film's location is likely somewhere near the Redanian and Temerian coastlines. Considering the source material, Bremervoord City in Temeria, ruled by Duke Agloval, is a strong possibility. However, only time will reveal how closely the film adheres to the original short story.
