Throwback to when Henry Cavill perfectly dealt with The Witcher fans who felt confused following the show&#039;s first season&#039;s storyline.

“I think &#8230;” &#8211; How Henry Cavill Reacted to Fans Criticizing &#8216;The Witcher’s Storyline Following the End of the First Season

Henry Cavill [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/henry-cavill/] as Geralt of Rivia is
an experience that comes along once in a century. While a number of his roles
have a similar arc, there are a few performances by the factory that truly stand
out. Fitting the description was Cavill in Netflix’s sci-fi show The Witcher. We
are no strangers to the fact that Cavill’s portrayal of Geralt was flawless.
While the actor’s time in the show has run out, fans are still in awe of Cavill
as the Witcher. However, back when Cavill was playing the role, he had a
peculiar way of dealing with the critics as well. 

The Witcher was the first time we saw Cavill in a fantasy role. Even though the
show was well received by the fans, a few elements from the show did not sit
right with them. Unlike other shows, The Witcher had a complex plot as it
followed multiple storylines at once. Fans had a tough time at the start dealing
grasping the concept of the show. Furthermore, a handful of them even felt
confused and disoriented at times. However, surprisingly Henry Cavill sided with
the fans. While speaking to the Digital Spy
[https://www.digitalspy.com/tv/ustv/a38548190/the-witcher-henry-cavill-responds-show-criticism/],
the British celeb spoke, “I think fair. Absolutely fair.”



Furthermore, the Enola Holmes star continued as he spoke about how following
three different characters at once was tricky. Cavill continued that even people
who had an idea about the Witcher franchise would find it difficult to keep
track of a completely original story.

However, elsewhere in the interview, the British celeb assured the fans that
things will start falling in place now. Suffice to say, the fans had got a
better idea of the show after the first season. Cavill finally concluded, “I
think it’s a bit more clear. And I think that’s a good thing.”


HOW HENRY CAVILL EXITING THE SHOW WILL AFFECT THE FRANCHISE APART FROM THE
VIEWS?

Ever since Cavill bid farewell to the role of Geralt of Rivia, the show had to
go an incredibly tough time. His exit even gave rise to fans boycotting the show
and even creating petitions to bring back Cavill

Meanwhile, fan interest was not the only thing affected by Cavill’s exit. It
might surprise you to know but following the actor’s exit the prices of the
merchandise has also fell down. As per reports by FandomWire, price of a PVC
statue of Cavill fell down by nearly $18. Meanwhile, the prices of other
merchandise and collectibles have also fell down.
