According to Netflix, this is the plot of The Witcher: Blood Origin:
Set in an elven world 1200 years before the world of The Witcher, Blood Origin will tell a story lost to time – the creation of the first prototype Witcher, and the events that lead to the pivotal “conjunction of the spheres,” when the worlds of monsters, men, and elves merged to become one.
Yeoh will join castmates Laurence O’Fuarain (Fjall) and Jodie Turner-Smith (Éile). Lauren Schmidt Hissrich is returning as an Executive Producer. The series is the prequel to the very popular Netflix series, The Witcher.
Michelle Yeoh has been previously cast on Star Trek: Discovery, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 1 & 2, Memoirs of a Geisha, Kung Fu Panda, and Crazy Rich Asians.
