<a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/henry-cavill/">Henry Cavill</a> recently returned to the small screen for his final role play as Geralt of Rivia. But fans seemed to be more focused on the fact that he has left the show. Many took to social media to voice their displeasure when season 3 dropped on the streaming giant. Most <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/the-witcher/">The Witcher</a> fans vowed to quit the show if he does not come back to play the white-haired mutant. Their attachment to the actor was quite evident over the internet because nobody wants to let him go. However, even after all the chaos, the new season has succeeded on Netflix charts.
<a href="https://variety.com/2023/tv/news/barbie-life-in-the-dreamhouse-at-no-6-as-the-witcher-returns-to-no-1-1235684877/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Variety recently rolled out an exclusive list</a> of the top 10 Netflix shows that garnered the attention of viewers most in late July. The outlet also attached the list, which showed their viewership counts. The hype that the Barbie movie has created among fans attracted fans to rewatch previous anime adaptation of the doll world. And Barbie Life in the Dreamhouse Season 1 took the sixth spot with 1.9 million views on the top list.

The astounding news, however, was seeing the numbers that The Witcher season 3 racked up despite fan rage for Cavill&#8217;s exit. It successfully secured the first spot on the English-language series list. The report revealed that the series has risen to the top after Volume 2 arrived on the platform.

Season 3 Volume 2 has amassed a total number of 7.8 million views in four days run only. It left behind the romantic drama Sweet Magnolias, which has been ruling the screen since its launch. Now the show stands in the second position with 5.3 million views. This is clearly the best parting gift Henry Cavill has got from his fans. However, the fate of the show now lies in the hands of the viewers, which does not include him.
<h2>How Henry Cavill&#8217;s exit can affect The Witcher? </h2>
About four months back Giant Freakin Robot took a poll on Twitter now known as X. The post shared below clearly states that fans do not want to watch the show without him. And if these threats do turn out turn when season 4 arrives, it might be the biggest drop that any famous show saw in Netflix history.

Will you keep watching The Witcher without Henry Cavill in it?

The former Superman was indeed a linchpin for both viewership and expansion of the franchise. So now, with him gone, nobody can tell what fate has for this show. However, the creators are still trying to affirm to fans that the series has a bright future and Liam Hemsworth would be an excellent addition. They are also inciting the fans by revealing that <a href="https://www.netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-as-the-witcher-season-three-finale-drops-producer-tomek-baginski-makes-a-huge-revelation-about-this-actor-being-the-main-character-and-not-henry-cavill/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the upcoming seasons will put Freya Allan&#8217;s Ciri in the center</a> instead of Geralt.
