When and where The Witcher can (and should) go after The Witcher 3 comes to an end

It’s better to look at the original, widely thought to be true ending to The Witcher 3. In The Witcher 3, there are three main ways that the game ends: Ciri becomes a witcher; Ciri becomes the Empress; or Ciri dies. It’s also possible that Geralt dies in the last ending, even though you don’t see him die. The house he’s in is surrounded by a lot of monsters, which implies that he was killed.

In the end, Geralt’s story ends, setting the stage for a new Witcher story.

Most people already knew that a new Witcher game was in the works, but now CD Projekt Red has confirmed what most people already thought. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt came out almost seven years ago, and it was a huge hit.

People aren’t going to know as much about what this might mean for the show. It doesn’t say. Is this The Witcher 4 a continuation of The Witcher 3, or is it a new story all together? Is there going to be new characters from Netflix’s adaptation of Andrzej Sapkowski’s saga? What happened to everyone’s favorite weatherman? Without the White Wolf, how will anyone know when the wind is blowing?

There is no better place to start than at the end of The Witcher 3. One interesting thing to note here is that there are two endings worth thinking about. The game’s core game comes to an end, as does its second major expansion, Blood and Wine.

Geralt of Rivia’s swan song is the best example of what’s to come, but the first one isn’t very good at predicting what’s to come. A return to the stage would be a disaster. In the future, Geralt will make a cameo like Kazuma Kiryu did in Yakuza: It will be in the same way. As with a dragon or Emil in Nier: Automata could be nice, but anything more than that would be bad. He’s been through a lot. Enjoy your wine in peace.

In addition to these four ending conditions, there are also a lot of other ways to make the world look different based on the choices you made in the story. It isn’t clear whether Radovid is still king, or whether a group of the Northern Realms’ most unlikely allies took him down. Bloody Baron? In what way did he end up in the Blue Mountains? Skellige is run by who? In The Witcher 3, there are so many ways for the game to end that making a Witcher 4 that honor everyone’s choices isn’t going to be easy.

And yet, there is one good clue from the tiny piece of information CDPR has given us so far: a medallion with what looks like a cat’s face on it.

Ciri gets three witcher medallions back from a bounty hunter named Leo Bonhart in The Lady of the Lake, which is the fifth and last book in Sapkowski’s Witcher saga. Later in the book, she meets up with Geralt and Yennefer at Stygga Castle. At this point, we read the following:

Co-star Millie Bobby Brown worries about David Harbour, who plays him on the show “Stranger Things.”

She took out the medallion that Bonhart had given her, and put it in her pocket. She put the cat around her neck and gave the wolf to Geralt, then she did the same thing. It’s just a sign, he said.

“Everything is just a sign.” She took Swallow out of its scabbard. A lot more to this than, “Ciri has a cat medallion, and the picture for the new Witcher game also looks like a cat medallion!” Ciri becomes a witcher in the “good” ending of The Witcher 3. The last main quest before the DLC is to deliver Zireael, Ciri’s famous sword from the books. Do you know what Zireael means in the old language? Swallow. You can write this on the blade of the sword if you want, or you can use the Elder Speech and say, “The flash that cuts through darkness, the light that breaks through the night.” Zireael is the name of the sword, no matter what it says.

Using one of the medallions Ciri took from Bonhart in the new promotional material makes sense. This sword is a symbol of the start of Ciri’s life as a witcher. All of the things she says are symbols, but only these two things can be seen from the end of The Witcher 3 and the announcement of the next game. The fact that Ciri wears her cat medallion in The Witcher 3 makes it even better.

As you can see, this is just a guess, but it makes sense based on the information we’ve been given so far. Even people who don’t care about the Witcher games know that Geralt got a happy ending. Since the end of The Witcher 3, fans have been begging for Ciri to be the next main character of the series.

Who knows? Ciri might be the one who needs to run to find Geralt this time around. Blood and Wine may have made him happy, but after drinking a lot of his best Erveluce, I think he got a little too excited. He ended up in the path of the Wild Hunt, which was set up by an apologist. When you think about it, it’s fun.

What is important is that the cat medallion has a lot more meanings than what you can see at first glance. A new witcher might be in this game. It might be about a witcher who went to School of the Cat and became a witch. The fact that the pendant is buried might mean that the Dyn Marv caravan, the new home of the school, will fall apart like in the Nightmare of the Wolf (the old one was the aforementioned Stygga Castle). Maybe we’re a long way off and it’s actually supposed to be a weird-looking dog that looks like Elden Ring’s message system.

We’re going to get a new Witcher game, no matter what. The fact that we can speculate about what that might mean with this much evidence for different ideas and theories is exciting. Ciri should be in it, though.

Sigourney Weaver is coming back for Avatar 2 CRAZY!

In the first Avatar, Weaver’s scientist character died, but now she’s back as the protagonists’ adopted Na’vi daughter.

We were all surprised when we heard about 17 billion years ago that Sigourney Weaver would be back for James Cameron’s Avatar sequels (even more so than with the idea of there being multiple Avatar sequels). But now that we know how Weaver is going to come back, we’re even more confused.

Empire magazine has said that Weaver will play a completely different character in Avatar: The Way of Water. In the first movie, she played Dr. Grace Augustine, the creator of the Human-Na’vi switcheroo Avatar Program, who died at the end. And no, it’s not a human. It’s Jake and Neytiri’s daughter, who is about to turn 16.

Weaver will play Kiri, Jake and Neytiri’s adopted daughter. It looks like we’ll meet a lot of Jake and Neytiri’s family in The Way of Water. Weaver told Empire what it was like to play a digitized blue teenager, “I think we all pretty much remember how we felt when we were that age.” “Oh, yes, I do. When I was 11, I was 5’10” or 5’11” tall. I was sure Kiri would feel uncomfortable a lot of the time. She wants to find out who she is. When Jim gave me that task, I was thrilled.

Can You Recall the Storyline of Avatar?

Now, adults play children all the time, especially in the world of voice acting, and at least one of the photos Empire released of Kiri makes it look like Weaver will also show up as Dr. Augustine again in some way, probably through old footage. But knowing that the Na’vi are mostly brought to life by fancy mocap rigs, it will be strange to see Weaver’s physical performance put on a teenager. Even though he is a blue alien teen with long arms and legs, he is still a teen.

The movie Avatar: The Way of Water will come out in December 2022.

Disney will show new scenes from “Avatar: The Way of Water”

Disney started its CineEurope presentation in Barcelona today with 12 minutes of footage from July’s Marvel fourquel Thor: Love and Thunder. Throughout the show, Disney showed trailers and looks at its other upcoming movies, including four never-before-seen scenes from James Cameron’s Avatar: The Way of Water.

Before the Thor footage, Disney’s Head of Global Theatrical Distribution Tony Chambers talked about the importance of immersive storytelling and the studio’s “robust, diverse slate.” This was followed by about 60 minutes of footage that was introduced by EMEA Head of Theatrical Distribution Nick Rush and EMEA Head of Studio Marketing Lee Jury.

There were prerecorded messages from people like Marvel boss Kevin Feige, who said, “It feels like we’re just getting started, even after 14 years.” As he introduced the Love And Thunder scenes, Thor star Chris Hemsworth said he wished he was in Barcelona, where the sangria “always tastes better.”

Harrison Ford sent a video for Lucasfilm’s Indiana Jones 5, saying that it had been 13 years since the last movie and that it was “time to put on the fedora and crack the whip.”

We also saw parts of Haunted Mansion, Pixar’s Elemental and Strange World, and the ensemble Amsterdam, which was directed by David O. Russell for New Regency.

Sam Mendes sent a video about Empire Of Light by Searchlight. The director of 1917 said that after making that movie, he wrote this one during lockdown. He said it was a “extremely personal story” about music, movies, and finding love in strange places.

Rebecca Kearey, the international head of Searchlight, showed a trailer for See How They Run, which stars Sam Rockwell and Saoirse Ronan, and a teaser for The Banshees of Inisherin, which stars Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson, directed by Martin McDonagh. Searchlight also showed the first scene of Chevalier, which is about the son of an African slave and a French plantation owner who grows up to be a famous composer in France.

The ‘Avatar: Way of Water’ video hints at new aquatic animals and action.

The next movie by Thor director Taika Waititi, Next Goal Wins, got an eight-minute sneak peek. The movie is about the American Samoa soccer team. In 2001, they lost to Australia 31-0, which was the worst loss in World Cup history. Michael Fassbender takes over as their new coach.

Disney’s show ended with a visit from Avatar producer Jon Landau, who flew from New Zealand to Barcelona to talk about the next movie in the series. He said that Avatar: The Way of Water was in the final stages of post-production and that it was important to be in Barcelona “to show our support for the exhibition community.”

Landau said that the strength of James Cameron’s scripts is that they have universal themes. “There is nothing more relatable than family,” he said before showing a message from Cameron.

Cameron from New Zealand said that the people working on Avatar were “pushing the limits even further… Every shot is made for the biggest screen and best resolution that can be achieved… I think this is what people want.” He also said, “Our business is not going away.”

Sigourney Weaver Reveals Her Unconventional Role in ‘Avatar: The Way of Water’

Weaver will portray Jake and Neytiri’s adoptive child.

Many pondered what type of role Sigourney Weaver would have in the sequel to James Cameron’s Avatar after the death of her character, Dr. Grace Augustine, who was the leader of the Avatar Program in the previous film. Finally, in an Empire Magazine exclusive, Weaver shared insights about the role she will portray in Avatar: The Way of Water, as well as a new photograph from the film.

Weaver announced to Empire Magazine that she would play Kiri, the adoptive daughter of Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) and Neytiri (Zoe Saldaa), in the film. “I believe we all remember what we were experiencing as teens,” Weaver told Empire Magazine exclusively. “I most definitely do. When I was 11, I was 5′ 10″ or 5′ 11″. I had a strong feeling Kiri would be uncomfortable a lot of the time. She’s trying to figure out who she is. Jim’s assignment of that task excited me.”

A fresh picture, which adds to the character’s mystery, has also been unveiled, hinting at some type of link that Kiri would have with Grace. Kiri is seen inside a lab, staring at a monitor with a recording of Grace on it. Despite not being biologically connected to Jake and Neytiri, Kiri seems to have human traits that other Na’vi do not have, such as five digits and eyebrows, adding to the character’s mystery.

Why Are Elves so hated in The Witcher?

Empire exclusive

With an obvious link between the two, as well as both characters being performed by the same actor, viewers can only guess on how significant Kiri’s involvement will be in the plot. The character will also appear on a subscriber-exclusive cover of Empire Magazine, which depicts her swimming underwater appreciating Pandora’s aquatic life, as shown in the first teaser.

Weaver and Cameron will work together again for Avatar: The Way of Water, having previously played Ellen Ripley in Aliens and Grace in the first Avatar film. Along with Weaver, Stephen Lang will reprise his role as Colonel Miles Quaritch, the man responsible for Grace’s death, in the sequel. Quaritch, like Weaver’s character, perished in the first film, fueling curiosity regarding his participation in Avatar: The Way of Water. While the roles of both actors remain unknown, fan speculation may continue until the highly anticipated film is released later this year.

On December 16, Avatar: The Way of Water will be released exclusively in cinemas.
