Fans of The Witcher are eagerly awaiting the release of Netflix’s upcoming animated film, The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep, scheduled to premiere in February. The film is based on the short story A Little Sacrifice and promises to bring Geralt back to the screen in a new adventure.
One of the most exciting aspects for longtime viewers is that the film will feature a scene that was originally cut from the live-action series starring Henry Cavill.
The Plot of The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep
The story of the animated film is set between episodes five and six of The Witcher’s first season. It follows a prince who falls in love with a siren, but just as their romance unfolds, humans in the region begin to die mysteriously. The true culprits? The creatures of the deep.
Geralt is drawn into a centuries-old conflict between humans and merfolk, forced to navigate the treacherous waters of diplomacy and danger.
The Deleted Scene from The Witcher
In the live-action series, the central romance revolves around Geralt and Yennefer. There was a period when both characters desperately tried to forget each other, yet Geralt found himself unable to erase Yennefer from his thoughts.
A scene depicting this struggle was originally filmed for the show but was later cut due to time constraints. Now, this moment will finally make its way to the screen in Sirens of the Deep.
The creators of the animated film have kept additional surprises under wraps, hinting that there may be even more connections to The Witcher universe waiting to be discovered.
