Two months after its premiere, the production starring Henry Cavill remains a true phenomenon in streaming platforms.
The Witcher series of Netflix still does not find a rival capable of snatching the top spot of popularity on streaming platforms more than two months after its release. The first season of this production, which is based on the popular saga of CD video games Projekt RED and the novels of Andrzej Sapkowski, has managed to surpass once again The Mandalorian, Disney's big bet on Disney + based on the Star Wars universe .
The Witcher v The Mandalorian: the sorcerer wins
According to the latest report published by Parrot Analytics, which computes the data recorded from January 14 to February 12, The Witcher has been the most consumed series of the month and is consolidated as the most watched series in the world; above The Mandalorian, which he dethroned exactly seven weeks ago.

Although the volume of spectators has moderated since the premiere, especially in the United States, the battle between the Star Wars spin off – which can be seen in Spain from March 24 – is again at the gates of beating Geralt de Rivia, played this time by Henry Cavill.
In any case, we talk about two unusual phenomena not so much because of the great expectation they generate at the media level and in social networks, but because of the strength they are maintaining over the months. According to data analyzed by Ampere Reviews, science fiction series have doubled their audience in the second half of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018.
However, Netflix continues to bet on the production of this type of content (they have more than 40 science fiction and fantasy series in development or production), while Amazon is left behind with 27 names; more than Hulu and Disney + combined. Amount is not at odds with more success, however.
Regarding the second season of the series of The Witcher there are few details for now, although there is something that is certain: it will premiere sometime in 2021 on Netflix. His filming has already begun and will feature a Game of Thrones actor.
