Later this month, Liam Hemsworth takes on the role of Geralt of Rivia after former lead actor Henry Cavill exited the mature fantasy Netflix series over “creative differences” with the creative team, as “The Witcher” returns with two more seasons before everything is wrapped up.
Lauren Schmidt Hissrich is the showrunner, writer, and executive producer overseeing the series based on the string of fantasy novels authored by Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski and thrust into the global gaming zeitgeist from the popular video games made by developer CD Projekt Red (also known for “Cyberpunk 2077” that was turned into the anime show “Cyberpunk Edgerunners“). If you’re new to all of this, Geralt is a skilled and legendary monster hunter who inhabits a grim world of magic and deadly creatures.
