Netflix Talked to Michael Keaton and Dirk Nowitzki to Play Vesemir

Netflix's The Witcher Season 2 is being filmed intensively, but most of the cast is still under wraps. Last night, it was officially announced that Kristofer Hivju from Game of Thrones will play the cursed Nivellen in Season 2, and more casts are yet to be announced. Perhaps the character that fans are most interested in is Geralt's teacher Vesemir. Although the previously hotly discussed Mark Hamill will play Vesemir, it has yet to be confirmed. However, according to industry insiders, Netflix had previously approached "Uncle Pull" and Michael Keaton to discuss playing Vesemir, but it was unsuccessful.

According to well-known industry insider Daniel Richtman on Twitter: Netflix had talked to Mads Mikkelsen and Michael Keaton about playing the new character "Vesemir" in the second season of "The Witcher", but they were unsuccessful.

Due to the successful character portrayed by "Uncle Babbitt" in "Death Stranding", it is reasonable to choose him as the first choice for "The Witcher" Season 2. At present, it is still undecided who will be the actor of Geralt's teacher "Vesemir" in the second season, but Netflix will definitely sign a big star for him.

Netflix's The Witcher Season 2 will officially air in 2021.
