The Witcher, Netflix’s hugely anticipated fantasy series, is currently filming in Budapest, Hungary according to Eamon Farren, who is playing Cahir in the upcoming series. Express.co.uk spoke exclusively to Farren on a brief trip to London. And he revealed all about the location shooting of The Witcher in Budapest.

Where is The Witcher being filmed? “We’re in Budapest shooting,” Farren said, “we've only just started. “We're only at the beginning and there's a lot to go. I can’t wait.” In November, it was announced Farren had been cast as Cahir, the “knight with the winged helmet” who is trying to track down Ciri (played by Freya Allan). The Australian actor is currently best known as Richard Horne from Twin Peaks: The Return and is soon to star in the BBC’s new Poirot adaptation The ABC Murders at Christmas. WHO IS IN THE CAST OF THE WITCHER?

Eamon revealed to us: “We've started shooting and you walk onto these sets and they're just incredible, the scale of it is massive. “What I love about The Witcher is the scale of it is massive but the stories and the characters are so intimate and familiar, but also and they exist in that epic world. “I love that combination because I think it's so fun to play with the micro and macro smashing up against each other.” The actor also gave some hints as to the action shots they had shot so far. WHY IS THERE CONTROVERSY OVER CIRI IN THE WITCHER?

He said: “It feels like a dream to be able to walk on a set like that and and fight and ride horses and yell those words.” Last week, Eamon said he had a few days off in the UK before shooting continued in the capital of Hungary. So far, no images have emerged from the set in Budapest. However, Netflix have released the make-up tests for Henry Cavill, who is shown with the long blonde locks fans expect from his character, Geralt of Rivia.
