CD Projekt Job Listing Could Hint at Witcher, Cyberpunk Movies

As a longtime fan of both The Witcher series and CD Projekt Red, I find the recent job listing for a writer/editor to be an intriguing development. With my years of immersion in the world of The Continent and Night City, I can’t help but feel a surge of excitement at the prospect of more storytelling within these universes.


Job postings at game studios like CD Projekt Red can provide intriguing insights into projects they haven’t announced yet publicly. Frequently, job openings give us clues about unannounced games or initiatives. For example, a recent job listing from CD Projekt Red mentions that they are seeking a writer/editor to create scripts in English for comic books, TV, and films. Furthermore, the company is looking for someone who is familiar with their intellectual properties (IPs), which primarily consist of The Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077 series.

It’s worth mentioning that CD Projekt Red is linked with both The Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077, but they don’t own either of these intellectual properties outright. The Witcher belongs to author Andrzej Sapkowski, while Cyberpunk 2077 was created by Mike Pondsmith. These brands have been licensed to CD Projekt Red, so it remains uncertain how much control the company might have in potential adaptations like movies. However, their video games have significantly expanded both franchises, making them popular among many people. It’s plausible that CD Projekt Red could be part of movie adaptations for either franchise, but this might come as a bit of a shock given that they don’t own the properties.

Currently, there’s no information available about Netflix’s plans for The Witcher after Season 5 concludes, as the live-action series is ongoing at the moment. It’s possible that CD Projekt Red might create their own adaptation following the completion of Netflix’s series, or they could collaborate on the franchise’s next venture together. However, the future of this collaboration depends heavily on fan reactions to the show’s upcoming seasons, especially given the controversy surrounding Geralt’s recast.

At the moment, readers should approach this job posting with a touch of skepticism. While it’s clear that CD Projekt Red is hinting at something, the specifics remain unknown. It could be that they are planning projects for the distant future, or perhaps even full-length animated adaptations, which might surpass the scale of ‘Cyberpunk: Edgerunners’. Given the rising trend of video game adaptations in recent years, it will surely be intriguing to see how this unfolds once more details emerge. Regardless of what happens, CD Projekt Red has demonstrated its ability to attract new fans with its franchises’ direction. For now, fans can only wait and observe as the situation develops.
