Netflix’s The Witcher has lastly given followers their first official tease of Liam Hemsworth as Geralt of Rivia and yup, he positive does seem like one other brooding, white-haired himbo, simply with a fair greater jawline this time round.
The Starvation Video games star is becoming a member of the fantasy adaptation to switch Henry Cavill in its fourth season, which is anticipated 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 seemed like he was dressed in a dressing up from Halloween Spirit. He seems to be a little bit extra correctly Witcher within the newest Netflix tease:
We don’t really hear Hemsworth communicate as Geralt, nonetheless, and that would be the greatest query surrounding him taking up of the function. Ever since CD Projekt Pink 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 strategy, however principally caught with the gravelly, low voice. Whether or not Hemsworth will attempt that as wellor create a brand-new tackle the character stays to be seen.
Cavill departing the present was a large 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 collection as a result of he was sad with the artistic liberties it was taking with the unique textual content, however it 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 will help get the present again on monitor.
