Geralt of Rivia's voice, familiar to fans of the Witcher games, returns in Netflix's latest animated adventure, "Sirens of the Deep." This animated film, a spin-off set during Season 1 of the Netflix series, features Doug Cockle reprising his iconic role.
IGN's Jarrod Jones, in his review, notes that while the pairing of Cockle's Geralt and Joey Batey's Jaskier holds appeal, its charm may be primarily for dedicated fans. Regardless, it might serve as a satisfying interim offering until the release of The Witcher 4.
