Henry Cavill had a QnA session to promote The Witcher. Here are some insights
from the interaction.


GERALT AND HENRY CAVILL’S OTHER ROLES

One fan from Canada asked Henry to compare Geralt with other roles he had
played. Cavill replied, “He is a particular character, and that’s what so
wonderful about him. He is obviously a hero character and a representation of
good. But he also does some things which average hero won’t do and is fine with
it.”

Henry has portrayed heroes like Superman, Sherlock Holmes, and Napoleon Solo in
“The Man from U.N.C.L.E”, which are not as twisted as Geralt. Hence, he pointed
out that Geralt is not your ideal hero. Instead, he is a mercenary who kills for
money and rarely regrets it.


THE SIMILARITIES BETWEEN HENRY CAVILL AND GERALT

During the promotion of The Witcher season one, when the host asked Cavill about
the similarities between him and Geralt, he said, “I think there are probably
some similarities between myself and Geralt. I definitely associate with him and
maybe that’s just because I’ve been inside his head for eight books, and you do
develop relationships with these characters,” Henry admitted.

Cavill’s passion for and devotion towards the game and books have helped him ace
the character. Even his co-stars acknowledge his extensive knowledge about the
franchise by referring to him as ‘The Witcher Bible’ or ‘The Witcher
Encyclopedia’.
