“April is the cruelest month,” the great writer, TS Eliot, once wrote. However, for Henry Cavill fans, it was the month of October that became horrible because that was the month when the iconic star announced his departure from The Witcher. The actor left fans devastated, along with this specific co-star on the Netflix show with the shocking news of his exit. And now as the final season starring Cavill reaches the audience, this actor cannot hold back her emotions.

Adapted from Andrzej Sapkowski’s novels, the Netflix Original show just landed the first volume of season 3. One of the most crucial parts of this season will be the love story of Geralt of Rivia and Yennefer of Vengerberg before the English actor leaves. The actress portraying Yennefer, Anya Chalotra, revealed how much the news of Cavill’s departure bothered her. She got the information after filming her last scenes with the Enola Holmes actor.

In her interview with The Telegraph, Chalotra revealed, the news was hard to digest because Cavill was family. Reminiscing the five-year span of working together, she added, “We’re going to feel that loss.” In another interview, Geralt’s Child Surprise, Ciri, portrayed by Freya Allan, also expressed how shocked she was when she found out about the departure.

Although no one from the show, including the Man of Steel actor, revealed the real reason for leaving. However, there are rumors that Cavill had creative differences with the writers of the show who were deviating from the source material. But when Chalotra was asked about it, she said nothing.

How did Anya Chalotra justify Henry Cavill leaving the show because of these rumors?

The Justice League star, in his Instagram announcement, did not reveal the real reason for his exit. While the showrunner, Lauren Schmidt Hissrich promised to give Geralt a heroic send-off, kept her mouth shut about Cavill’s departure. But when Chalotra faced the same question, she also tried to duck the question with a witty answer.

The British actress revealed when they were on the sets, they all worked hard to bring lives to their characters. Additionally, Chalotra said she watched the 40-year-old do the same. While remaining silent about the real reason, the 26-year-old actress praised the dedication and admiration Cavill had for this dream project of his.

Although no matter how badly his fans want The Tudors star has officially handed over his medallion and swords to Liam Hemsworth. The cast members and the entire The Witcher team are moving forward with the Australian actor.

What do you think about Chalotra’s statement? Will The Witcher feel the loss of Henry Cavill in future seasons?
