Netflix had a huge hit with The Witcher TV series, with the show quickly becoming one of the streaming platform's most popular programs. Fans are eagerly anticipating The Witcher season 2 to see what happens next, but in the meantime, some concept art for the first season has appeared online. This concept art includes an image of what appears to be "quite literally" WWE superstar Bray Wyatt as a dwarven warrior.
The Bray Wyatt dwarf that appeared in The Witcher concept art represents how the artist wanted dwarven warriors to look in the show. While it's possible that the dwarf looking exactly like Bray Wyatt is just a coincidence, the resemblance is truly uncanny. It almost looks like someone photoshopped Bray Wyatt's head on top of the drawn dwarf body, but it's unclear if that is the case. Regardless, the striking similarity between the dwarf art and Bray Wyatt has prompted a response from the WWE superstar himself.
Bray Wyatt has shared the image of The Witcher Netflix series dwarf concept art on Twitter, tagging the show's official Twitter account, and offering to play the role. The Witcher Netflix account has yet to respond at the time of this writing.
Bray Wyatt would be far from the first professional wrestler to make the jump to TV and movies, and in fact, WWE appears to have some kind of relationship with Netflix. The Big Show Show is a sitcom starring WWE wrestler The Big Show that airs on Netflix and is produced by WWE Studios. But Bray Wyatt is a full-time member of the WWE roster, and so it seems unlikely that he would have the time to appear in The Witcher Netflix series.
While Bray Wyatt may not be appearing in The Witcher season 2, it should still have some familiar faces. Along with the season 1 cast returning, it will also feature some brand new actors and actresses, with one of the most notable being Game of Thrones' Kristofer Hivju.
The Witcher season 2 production was put on hold due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, but reports indicate that it will start production again soon. Fans of the show will still have to wait until 2021 to see The Witcher season 2, but hopefully it's worth the wait.
The Witcher is available to stream on Netflix.
