Since 2022, fans of Netflix’s The Witcher have been wondering how the series would explain the re-casting of Henry Cavill. While there were many updates about the show like Liam Hemsworth taking on the role of Geralt of Rivia, fans did not get the one answer they were waiting for until now. Shortly after the fantasy series added another big name to its cast list, it ended up being revealed that other cast members have been added to help answer their questions.

The surprising addition of the new characters also helped prove that the show would be following an important storyline from Andrzej Sapkowski’s books.

How The Witcher will introduce Liam Hemsworth

According to reports from Redanian Intelligence, it was revealed how The Witcher season four planned to move past the Henry Cavill recasting. While the question had lingered in fans’ minds for quite some time, a recent audition tape explained how the show would continue with Liam Hemsworth. In the clip, a scene with a young girl, Nimue, and a storyteller, Stribog, came to light.

As fans of the books by Andrzej Sapkowski know, the introduction of these two characters proves that the series will follow a storyline set far in the future. It also explains that the story would be told by a new character who has his set imagination for Geralt. The news of a futuristic storyline comes shortly after the series added another addition to its cast list.

While fans might have to watch Hemsworth take on the iconic role soon, even the new addition was not enough to make them forget about Henry Cavill.

The Witcher season 4 added a fan-favorite character

Just a week ago, it was revealed that The Witcher had welcomed a new cast member. With the series going into its fourth season without Henry Cavill, they had chosen to add another amazing actor. It was Laurence Fishburne. He was said to be taking up the role of the fan-favorite character from the books and the games, Regis. While the addition of the vampire would have normally excited fans of the show, they did not seem intrigued.

Their lack of interest in the upcoming season comes after the third season ended up disappointing the world. To add to that, Cavill not being a part of the series also had everyone jumping ship. While social media seemed unimpressed, fans will have to wait and see how the creators of the show have planned to take it forward.
