The Witcher Season 4 Set Photo Reveals First Look at Laurence Fishburne as Regis
Production for the highly anticipated fourth season of Netflix’s The Witcher is in full swing, with a first look at Laurence Fishburne as Regis. A significant change this season is the casting of Liam Hemsworth as the new Geralt of Rivia, taking over the iconic role from Henry Cavill.
Photos published by UnBoxPHD revealed a first look at Fishburne in costume as Regis was revealed, showcasing him in a wig, red boots, and distinctive sideburns. Fishburne will portray Emiel Regis Rohellec Terzieff-Godefroy—commonly known as Regis—a beloved character from the novels and The Witcher III: The Wild Hunt’s acclaimed Blood and Wine expansion. Regis, a barber-surgeon and vampire, is a pivotal character whose on-screen depiction has been eagerly anticipated by fans. Initial reports mistook another character for Regis, but these new images confirm Fishburne’s transformation into the iconic vampire.
