Season three of the Netflix fantasy debuted and ended with a lackluster performance compared to its previous outings. Additionally, with crucial in-universe updates such as the setting up of Anya Chalotra’s Yennefer and Freya Allan’s Ciri as major upcoming power players, while also setting the sun on <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/henry-cavill/">Henry Cavill</a>’s version of Geralt, the season flew below expectations owing to a medley of reasons. In its latest attempt to steer the show back to its initial glory days, the streamer signed on director Sergio Mimica-Gezzan for <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/the-witcher/">The Witcher</a> season four.
On paper, the hand-over holds significant importance and fans should begin to anticipate things finally going north owing to the acclaim and manner of the filmmaker’s association in three major ways.
<h2>Why Sergio Mimica-Gezzan can resurrect The Witcher</h2>
The 67-year-old Croatian-American film director stands as one of the most talented and acclaimed directors, with the likes of The Pillars of the Earth and Raised By Wolves to his credit. Moreover, he has directed several episodes of the Apple TV+ series, For All Mankind, securing a staggering 100% on Rotten Tomatoes in its second and fourth seasons. The filmmaker also has collaborated with the likes of Steven Spielberg as an assistant director on flicks like Schindler’s List and Saving Private Ryan.

Incidentally, Sergio Mimica-Gezzan remains slated to direct at least four episodes of The Witcher, accounting for half of season four. Bolstered by his understanding of complex narratives, visual flair, and acclaimed handling of similar genres, his taking over the steering of the ship could help it steer away from the <a href="https://www.netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-thirty-percent-down-the-witcher-season-three-viewership-sees-massive-drop-with-henry-cavill-exiting-the-show-liam-hemsworth/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">disastrous viewership drop faced by the show in the previous season</a> and revive the lore. Finally, with expertise in world-building, he may well add his trademark style to salvage a show burdened with wrong creative decisions.

Along these lines, the likely storyline that The Witcher has hinted at will continue from a pivotal shift of power.
<h2>Ciri and Yennefer likely to spearhead the introduction of Liam Hemsworth</h2>
Liam Hemsworth, taking over Geralt’s sword from Henry Cavill, will have to face key challenges to ensure a proper footing in The Witcher. As per the current state of affairs, his character will debut on a continent ravaged by war, with key developments taking shape in an antipodal manner to one another. After <a href="https://www.netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-how-the-witcher-season-3-served-the-best-ciri-and-yennefer-moments-despite-being-hated-by-fans/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">spending a good chunk of time on having Ciri and Yennefer bond with one another in season three</a>, the latter half of it split them apart after Tissaia de Vries’s death.

The new narrative will follow Ciri’s journey after joining the Rats. The arc will thus push her on an exploring path, marking trysts with darker forces and opening her to a more complex personality. On the other hand, Yennefer will herald herself as arguably the most powerful wielder of magic in the continent, setting the stage for a broader dynamic soon.
