"The toughest part for me was finding that balance between the showrunners' vision and my love for the books, and trying to bring that Geralt to the showrunners' vision. It's about treading a fine line there. It's the showrunners' story and so it's an adaptation. The tricky bit for me was finding Geralt from the books' place within that and being able to serve both as much as I could."
Sådan sagde Henry Cavill i starten af The Witcher-produktionen, og nu efter den kommende tredje sæson så dropper han serien, hvor Liam Hemsworth står til at tage over som Geralt of Rivia.
Så hvad er der sket? Ja, hvis du spørger Redanian Intelligence, som længe har været en autoritet om der har med Witcher-universet at gøre, så skyldes det netop at Cavill ikke længere følte at folkene bag serien respekterede Geralt som karakter:
"Cavill was contemplating moving on from the show after Season 2 due to disagreements with the producers in regard to the show's content and Geralt's role. And we don't necessarily need the report to know this. As Redanian Intelligence points out, Cavill expressed his frustrations throughout the promo tour for the second season. "
Naturligvis bør dette behandles som et rygte for nu.
