As The Witcher: Blood Origins landed on Netflix, fans mourn the fact that they will not see Henry Cavill in the show anymore.

Fans Mourn Henry Cavill as &#8216;The Witcher: Blood Origin&#8217; Premieres on Netflix Globally

After The Witcher, Henry Cavill [http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/henry-cavill/]
lost Superman as well. Fans were still feeling bad for the actor, when the
prequel to The Witcher just landed on Netflix. Before even the release of the
series, fans were against it because Cavill had already left the show. Now that
the series has finally landed, are they even giving it a watch? Are they seeing
the series for what it is?



The Witcher [http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/henry-cavill/]has huge cult followers
throughout the world. The way the British actor has justified the
larger-than-life character, fans are not ready to let him go. On the 25th of
December, The Witcher: Blood Origins landed on the streaming giant. Despite the
series taking place in the same universe as The Witcher, fans are not excited,
nor are they talking about the series itself. All they want is for Henry Cavill
back to the show.

FANS ARE STILL MOURNING HENRY CAVILL AND HIS GERALT OF RIVIA

The writers mocked the source material and deviated widely from the original
plot, and The Tudors actor didn’t like it at all, which is allegedly the reason
for Cavill’s exit. Meanwhile, the showrunner hasn’t revealed the reason for the
departure

of the Man of Steel actor. But fans have their ways of speculating and
connecting the dots. Now that The Witcher: Blood Origins
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-originals-hes-brought-nothing-but-the-cast-of-the-witcher-blood-origin-discuss-the-departure-of-henry-cavill-from-the-witcher-world/]
released, they are now not happy to see it. Some of them even don’t want to
watch the series as a revolt against the show makers.

Others are just sad for their Geralt as they will not see the same face from the
fourth season of The Witcher.

even say that when you don’t follow the books/games and follow whatever is
important for the series, it ruins the franchise.

followed it in the prequel, they didn’t like it.

This one didn’t like the writing nor did he like the characters. All over, he
didn’t like the show and remembered the Witcher who had left the show.

While watching the prequel, this user realized he didn’t like it. Well, he
thought, Cavill just saved himself.

This user is clearly questioning the purpose of making such shows that are far
from the source materials. What is the point of making it?

This user is in awe because of what Henry and Anya have done for the show. And
he considered The Witcher: Blood Origins as a stain on their efforts.

Another user favors the books and doesn’t love the show.
