Netflix drops first trailer of 'The Witcher' Season 2, fans ask 'where is Yennefer'

Season 2 of 'The Witcher' will premiere on December 17 at the inaugural WitcherCon event

Netflix finally dropped the first trailer for Season 2 of 'The Witcher' and fans are going gaga over it. The season will premiere on December 17, at the inaugural WitcherCon event. The trailer gives a proper, full-length unfurling of various angles of the story.

While fans were excited to see numerous shots of Geralt (played by Henry Cavill) dashing through the snow, battling monsters, and brandishing swords at people, they were also bugged by only a split-second glance at Yennefer (played by Anya Chalotra) in the trailer. The first trailer of the second season of 'The Witcher' was nothing less than a treat to an already 'beaming with happiness' fan base as Netflix announced the casting of Michelle Yeoh in 'The Witcher: Blood Origin', only a few days ago. 'Blood Origin' will be a six-part, live-action limited series and a prequel to the hit Netflix series, 'The Witcher'.

In the first trailer of the second season, the story picks up where it left off, Geralt finally meets Princess Ciri (Freya Allan). Exploring how Geralt and Ciri's relationship evolves, the second season will see the two travel to Kaer Morhen, the mountain fortress of the witchers where Geralt had his training. Ciri will be trained to become a witcher at Kaer Morhen. Geralt and Ciri's journey to Kaer Morhen is full of ups and downs. While full details of the storyline haven't been revealed yet, Netflix showed the titles for seven of the eight episodes in Season 2 in the trailer. Characters like Phillipa, Lambert and Vesemir will be seen in the second season along with new monsters like the Leshy. The second season might also feature a new song from Jaskier as promised by Cavill after his song 'Throw a coin to your witcher, O valley of plenty' became an anthem after the release of the first season. Yennefer's absence from most parts of the trailer and only a split-second glimpse toward the end became a topic of discussion.

'WHERE IS YENNEFER?'

Yennefer's fleeting presence in the last part of the trailer bothered the fans a bit as they swarmed Twitter with tweets complaining 'there was not enough Yennefer'. One fan tweeted, "Yennefer mention for 0.2 seconds where is she" Some fans also speculated that Yennefer might be given more screen time in the second trailer and wrote, "Are saving her scenes for a second trailer, sure" Another fan commented, "Yenn appeared for 2 seconds but it was enough to make me shiver" One fan wrote, "WHERE THE HELL IS MY QUEEN YENNEFER" "not enough yennefer!!" Another tweet read, "WHERE IS YENNEFER?? Btw awesome trailer!"
