Just came in to the comments to see if I was right, this is bad news….

The defenders was a disappointment, couldn't they get someone better
“Noooooo!!!!!!!” – Darth Vader
Take it back
Whelp, so much for that series. RIP
Lesbomancy will be strong in this one..
Hello

Hope they don't mess up the witcher like they did the defenders
Noooo
Noooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!
.
CD project red better be part of this
so some one who may have had some small roll in making a show that was underwhelming is going to helming a new show eh? wow…
I hate to say it, but the show will most likely flop. Which is a shame.
Yesssss it'll be good then
I'm probably most excited for the soundtrack than anything else. It'll have the same composer as wild hunt did.
not good, Marvel's The Defenders was a big disappointment
Psst get Mads Mikkelsen for Geralt
Cool
I still don't know how to feel about this…I want this to be good if they are going to do it but I hope they don't bomb this and leave a bad vibe with the fans…
R.I.P.
This is terrible news…
Eh, the defenders wasn't even that great so not really good news
Ffs No.
What exactly does being showrunner mean???
