Netflix’s ‘The Witcher’ Receives Three Emmy Nominations
The nominees for the 74th annual Emmy Awards were announced today, recognizing achievements in television from June 1, 2021 through May 31, 2022.
Netflix’s live-action adaptation of The Witcher received three nominations across various categories:
- Outstanding Stunt Coordination for a Drama Series, Limited or Anthology Series or Movie
- Outstanding Fantasy/Sci-Fi Costumes – “Family”
- Outstanding Special or Visual Effects in a Season or Movie
The Witcher follows quite a few colorful characters living on the Continent, but primarily focuses on the Witcher himself: Geralt of Rivia (Cavill). A monster-killer-for-hire, Geralt travels the Continent to have coins tossed his way in exchange for hunting and killing many dangerous monsters. Geralt’s travels in season 1 introduced us to a variety of characters such as Geralt’s primary love interest, Yennefer of Vengerberg (Anya Chalotra), Ciri (Freya Allan), and fan-favorite Jaskier (Joey Batey), all of whom feature heavily in season 2 of the series as well.
Production is currently underway on season 3 of The Witcher. You can find our coverage for the series here.
