Ciri (Freya Allan)
For an 18-year-old actress, the role of Princess Cirilla became a career breakthrough, but it’s obviously just the beginning. Freya Allan had the perfect background to become a successful actress: she attended Headington School, the same institution as Harry Potter’s star Emma Watson. During her further studies, Freya starred in a few short films.
Before her audition for The Witcher, Allan appeared in TV shows like “Into The Badlands” and “The War of the Worlds.” As Freya shared in an interview, she was not initially cast for the role of Ciri. Allan was supposed to portray Marilka, but then she got a phone invitation for yet another audition with the series’ showrunner and director. Although the casting team planned on having someone younger for Ciri’s part, Allan eventually landed the leading role!
