With The wizard Season 4 set to begin a new era for the Netflix fantasy series, production on the series has apparently ended. The series is an adaptation of Andrzej Sapkowski’s epic fantasy novel focusing on a monster hunter in the fictional setting of the continent. Having made his debut in the first season of The wizard in 2019, Allen played Geralt’s adopted daughter Ciri who has a powerful legacy and trains under the command of the monster hunter.
Although Season 4 is one of the fantasy series’ most uncertain to date, production has reportedly reached a major milestone. In a post on his Instagram account, Allen shared several pieces of artwork from his season 4 castmates Christelle Elwin, Aggy K. Adams, Ben Radcliffe, Fabian McCallum and Connor Crawford as their respective members of the Rats. Along with the art, Allen thanked her castmates for helping the upcoming season be the most meaningful experience for her yet. Check it out below:

This also means that the first previews could start rolling out in early 2025, to give a better look at Hemsworth in his new role.
