Fast-forward to this week, and Hissrich once again took to Twitter, but this time to talk about something more positive than Internet trolls and pitchfork mobs: writing the show. In the process, the showrunner also slipped some insight into the casting process, which she describes as, “basically impossible.”

It’s interesting to hear that Hissrich and her writing team didn’t have to chop too much during the editing process, which is normally a sign of a great script. And when you consider the talent serving on the project and the collective passion for the IP, it’s not very surprising that no babies were harmed in the writing of the show’s first season.

The Witcher Netflix series currently doesn’t have a release date, but it is expected to release sometime next year.
