Kim Bodnia will star as Vesemir in The Witcher Netflix series.
Kim Bodina will be joining the cast of Season Two as Vesemir. News of the casting was announced today for The Witcher Netflix series.
Rumor previously had Mark Hamill pegged as a possibility, well, the rumor was the show had offered the part to him. Whether he turned it down or if it was even offered in the first place isn’t known, but it would have been rather cool.
Bodina is a Danish actor, writer, and director known for playing police detective Martin Rohde in the Scandinavian series The Bridge.
