The Witcher Season 2 Updates: The Witcher, a Netflix original series, has become a big hit, and actor Henry Cavill is highly compensated for his role as Geralt of Rivia. Cavill is reportedly earning $400,000 every episode of the series, according to Variety.
It’s unclear from the article if that number applies to both seasons of the program or is based exclusively on the next season of The Witcher. Variety’s article also contains a list of other TV celebrity wages, such as Pedro Pascal’s $600,000 per episode salary for HBO’s The Last of Us.
The Witcher’s first season was released on Netflix in December of this year. Cavill’s portrayal of Geralt was crucial to the show’s success since he releases a version of the character that seemed genuine to the novels and games that inspired it.

After a long and arduous production process, Season 2 will release almost precisely two years after Season 1. The series’ production was challenging owing to a number of reasons, including the coronavirus epidemic and Cavill’s injuries while filming. Season 2 filming was completed early this year, and the program is presently in post-production.
Despite the fact that Netflix clearly believed in the idea from the outset, The Witcher’s first season’s success came as a complete surprise. Following the release of the first season, interest in Andrzej Sapkowski’s original books, as well as CD Projekt Red’s games, skyrocketed.
Netflix has subsequently announced a slew of new Witcher projects, albeit none of them will star Cavill. It’s unclear whether these ventures will succeed without the actor, but fans can still expect to see him in The Witcher Season 2 when it releases on December 17th.
