Back in October, The Witcher<\/a> Netflix series – loosely inspired by CD Projekt Red’s video games – announced Henry Cavill (who plays the main character Geralt) would be replaced by Liam Hemsworth in Season 4.<\/p>\n

Not long after this, Cavill announced he would be reprising his role as Superman. Now, in a separate development, Cavill has officially been dropped by the DC Universe – with the new co-chairman James Gunn (Guardians of the Galaxy, Suicide Squad) announcing an overhaul to the Superman movies.<\/p>\n

This has now got some<\/em> fans of Cavill (and The Witcher) wondering if he could perhaps continue on as Geralt beyond Season 3.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Variety<\/a>, Netflix has confirmed Season 4 will be moving forward “unchanged”. Netflix’s head of U.S. and Canada scripted series Peter Friedlander also previously mentioned how The Witcher series is now committed to Liam Hemsworth as Geralt:<\/p>\n

\u201cHenry is an extraordinary Geralt and I think Liam will continue and also be an extraordinary Geralt. There has been a legacy of amazing, iconic characters where the actors have changed and we\u2019re hugely optimistic about this. We will continue to honor the IP, the fans, the storytelling, all the way through.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
