Joey Batey reprises his role as Jaskier in the series, and while Katherine McNamara is not in the show, it is not unusual for her to be at a Netflix premiere. She was also at a "Queen Charlotte" preview.

"Okay, for all Kat fans, if she is dating Joey Batey, don't jump to conclusions based on pictures from the 'Witcher: Blood Origin' premiere in London," another cautioned, adding:

"She did say she was dating someone on the RTTS podcast, and it's her private life; she could have confirmed it via her account."

In a Twitter thread, a user theorized that people getting upset about Taylor Swift's new beau is the same as those taking umbrage to rumors of Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet dating and reminded everyone that their favorite stars are "just guys."

With the release of the spin-off in December 2022, Batey went off-topic to chat about the main series, saying that there will be much more for Jaskier to do in the third season.

"There's perhaps a little bit of romance?" the actor hinted. "With more than one person, maybe?" In the source material, Dandelion's love for poetry is initially inspired by his crush on Countess de Stael.
