Netflix’s The Witcher has lastly given followers their first official tease of Liam Hemsworth as Geralt of Rivia and yup, he positive does appear to be one other brooding, white-haired himbo, simply with an excellent greater jawline this time round.
The Starvation Video games star is becoming a member of the fantasy adaptation to exchange Henry Cavill in its fourth season, which is predicted to launch someday in 2025. To date, followers have solely seen Hemsworth because the titular monster slayer in a blurry onset image the place he appeared like he was dressed in a fancy dress from Halloween Spirit. He appears to be like a little bit extra correctly Witcher within the newest Netflix tease:
We don’t truly hear Hemsworth converse as Geralt, nevertheless, and that would be the greatest query surrounding him taking on of the position. Ever since CD Projekt Crimson turned writer Andrzej Sapkowski’s books into hit video video games the place Geralt was voiced by Doug Cockle, the character’s been related to a low, raspy, cool-as-a-cucumber-sounding stoic warrior. Cavill put his personal spin on that method, however largely caught with the gravelly, low voice. Whether or not Hemsworth will strive that as wellor create a brand-new tackle the character stays to be seen.
Cavill departing the present was a enormous controversy again when it occurred. The person behind Superman in Zack Snyder’s DCU appeared set to return to it earlier than Warner Bros. fully upended these plans and handed the reigns over to James Gunn. Followers speculated that Cavill was ditching The Witcher sequence as a result of he was sad with the inventive liberties it was taking with the unique textual content, but it surely appears extra doubtless he simply took some unhealthy recommendation from his agent. He’s now headed to the Warhammer 40K universe.
Netflix’s The Witcher is meant to run for 2 extra seasons, with each filmed back-to-back. Season three was a giant letdown for some and spectacularly terrible for others. Perhaps Hemsworth’s Geralt may help get the present again on observe.
