Forums - Movies & TV - Netflix to produce TV show based on the Witcher book series

http://www.platige.com/en/page/839-The_Witcher_Saga_On_Netflix

Netflix is developing and producing a new English language drama series based on The Witcher, the globally popular fantasy saga from Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski, that has entranced legions of fans worldwide. Known collectively as the Witcher Saga, Sapkowski’s eight novels and story collections center on "witchers" -- hunters who develop supernatural abilities at a young age to battle deadly monsters. The New York Times bestselling books have spawned a major video game franchise and have been translated into over 20 languages.   

“Andrzej Sapkowski has created a rich and memorable world, at once magical and familiar,” said Erik Barmack, Netflix Vice President, international series. “We couldn’t be more excited about bringing Netflix members around the world.” “I’m thrilled that Netflix will be doing an adaptation of my stories, staying true to the source material and the themes that I have spent over thirty years writing,” said Sapkowski. “I’m excited about our efforts together, as well as the team assembled to shepherd these characters to life.”   Andrzej Sapkowski will serve as a creative consultant on the series.

Potential to be really good.

I want more Game of Thrones and things like it!



Dude fucked up selling the game rights the way he did but honestly it's boost to the book sales and now this have probably made up for his mistake.



Could be utter feces, could be epic, I'm thinking it will fall somewhere in the middle. Lots of decent fantasy settings and books have been made into some pretty shit shows or movies. If done right, this has immense potential.



Wow, this could end up being amazing or a completely flop! Hope that's going to be the first one!

Fuck. Yes



Well, I choose Triss over Yennefer, so when it comes to it I hope the TV series goes the same way. Super excite.

I don't mind a flop, as long as it's an entertaining flop!
