The Witcher Netflix series has been anticipated by fans for quite some time, and later this year, they will finally get a chance to see the world of The Witcher come to life. Last month, Netflix confirmed that The Witcher would release in late 2019, but stopped short of providing an exact release date. We still don't have an official release date from Netflix, but it appears as though the release date has leaked online.

NSFW website Recapped, that has accurately leaked The Witcher Netflix news in the past, claims that the series will start on Friday, December 20, 2019. Furthermore, the site claims that The Witcher has already been green lit for a second season, which is expected to start filming in December 2019 or January 2020.

We must caution fans to take this information with a massive grain of salt, as it's far from an official announcement from Netflix. However, since Recapped has been accurate with its Witcher Netflix leaks in the past, it does make it a bit easier to believe.

Some of the most significant leaks to come from the site in the past when it comes to The Witcher Netflix series involves the show's cast. It was the first to reveal Anya Chalotra as Yennefer and Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia, so it's quite possible that this Witcher Netflix series release date leak is the real deal.

Unfortunately for fans anxious to start watching The Witcher on Netflix, it's unclear when the streaming giant will confirm or deny this rumor. Sometimes Netflix waits until the last minute to announce a TV series premiere date, so it may very well be as late as November before fans hear anything official. Though for some of its more notable projects, Netflix has been known to start the marketing campaign a bit earlier, so if fans are lucky, a Witcher Netflix series release date could be announced within a matter of months.

Of course, that's just speculation at this time. Those excited to watch The Witcher Netflix series will just need to keep their eyes peeled for official release date information, as it's possible the leaked December 20 release date is inaccurate.

The Witcher is in production at Netflix.
