So far, Lampert has appeared on a handful of U.K. television shows as well asStar Wars: Andorand the 2019 movieLast Christmas.
As it stands, there is no established character in The Witcher universe with the name Branko so it remains to be seen how he will be incorporated into the story.
Either way, fans seemingly think Lampert is perfect for the role.
“This dude looks like a Witcher character”, the top comment reads.
