More Casting News For Netflix’s THE WITCHER Series
Fans are eagerly waiting to learn anything they can about Netflix’s series adaptation of The Witcher. The latest casting is of Anita Olatunji. According to Olatunji’s Spotlight.com page, she will be playing the role of Woman. This is a very vague role, and many are expecting that it will actually be revealed that she is Vea, one of two Zerrikanian warriors known for their skills with a blade.

It’s an incredible story that is akin to the story of Bethany Hamilton, who lost her arm to a shark while surfing and was able to get back on her board and ride the waves again. I guess when you have that much talent and determination, and a love for what you do, nothing can stop you!
