The Witcher Series: New Geralt Divides Fans - Liam Hemsworth Not Even Seen

May 10, 2024 2:02 PM

The recent news surrounding the Netflix series "The Witcher" has sparked intense reactions from the fan community. The departure of Henry Cavill, who has played Geralt for the first three seasons, and the introduction of Liam Hemsworth as the new Geralt, have especially led to divided opinions among fans. Even a leaked image that was mistakenly believed to have shown Hemsworth as Geralt, but was actually his stunt double Joel Adrian, prompted a flurry of negative responses. Viewers commented with jokes comparing the look to a low-budget version of Geralt. Despite the mix-up, fans shared criticism about the potential changes to Geralt's outfit in the new season. Important to note is that this information was not intended for public release, so any assessments may be premature. A confirmed addition to the cast includes Laurence Fishburne, who will be joining Season 4 as the character Regis. The anticipation for "The Witcher" Season 4 continues to grow, as fans await to see how Hemsworth will fare as the iconic Witcher.

Who will be joining the cast of "The Witcher" Season 4 on Netflix?

Laurence Fishburne has been confirmed to join the cast of "The Witcher" Season 4 on Netflix, where he will play the role of the healer Regis.

The Witcher is based on the book series by Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski, which follows the story of Geralt of Rivia, a solitary monster hunter who struggles to find his place in a world where people often prove more wicked than beasts. The franchise has been successfully transformed into a series of video games developed by CD Projekt Red, with "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt" being particularly noteworthy for its critical acclaim and massive player base. The Netflix series adapts the story for television, bringing the rich world of The Witcher to a different medium, further expanding its reach and popularity.
