At a “Next on Netflix” event in Los Angeles (as reported by The Hollywood Reporter), the streaming service finally announced the news that fans have been eagerly waiting five years for – the premiere date of “The Old Guard 2” on Netflix, which is scheduled for July 2, 2025.

In a conversation with SFX Magazine (through Redanian Intelligence), Lauren S. Hissrich shared that there are multiple additional stories set within the universe of “The Witcher” currently being developed.

She further added:
– “I adore this world, I’m always looking for new chances to grow it beyond the primary series.”
– “This universe of ‘The Witcher‘ is vast, and I can’t wait to explore more of it through these spin-offs.”
– “As a fan of this world myself, I’m constantly searching for opportunities to delve deeper into its lore with the spin-offs.
As a movie critic, I must say that Hwang Dong-hyuk’s “Squid Game” has undeniably taken Netflix by storm. This series not only holds the title for the most-viewed show on their platform but also shattered another record, becoming the most-watched series in a week during 2024 with a staggering 4.9 billion minutes watched in the last week of December alone! The first season was met with widespread acclaim upon its release in 2021, and discussions about a sequel began almost immediately. Fast forward three years to December 2024, and fans were eagerly devouring the seven episodes at a pace that would put even the most dedicated contestants of “Red Light, Green Light” to shame – and without the fear of being eliminated!
