Famke Janssen
Actresses That Should Play Yennefer in The Witcher Netflix Series
Yennefer has struck a chord with Witcher fans for being a strong, no-nonsense character who doesn’t need a Witcher to save her. In fact, it’s often her giving Geralt a hand.
Actress Famke Janssen has played a variety of strong women throughout her career, including her excellent portrayal as the powerful Jean Grey AKA Dark Phoenix in the X-Men films.
There she also played a character struggling with romantic tension between two other men, again similar to Yen, Geralt, and Triss’ love triangle.
She’s also shown she’s no stranger to darker roles as she played the femme fatale Bond villain Xenia Onatopp in 1998’s Goldeneye.
It’s undeniable that Famke brings a certain gravitas and depth to her roles which would make her a prime choice for the role of Yennefer in The Witcher Netflix series.
