Netflix viewers threatening to ‘boycott’ The Witcher following cast shake-up

The Witcher fans are seriously considering skipping season four of the series after Liam Hemsworth was announced as Henry Cavil’s replacement.

On Saturday, the fandom was rocked after it was confirmed that the Australian actor, 32, will be playing Geralt of Rivia after the Superman frontman said that he will be ‘laying down my medallion and my swords for Season 4.’

Sharing the news on social media, Henry wrote: In my stead, the fantastic Mr Liam Hemsworth will be taking up the mantle of the White Wolf. As with the greatest of literary characters, I pass the torch with reverence for the time spent embodying Geralt and enthusiasm to see Liam’s take on this most fascinating and nuanced of men.

Releasing his own statement, the Hunger Games actor shared that he is a longtime fan of The Witcher, and is ‘over the moon’ to have bagged the coveted role.

‘Liam, good sir, this character has such a wonderful depth to him, enjoy diving in and seeing what you can find.’
