The Witcher (2019) S3 E8

Cavill has not been shy about expressing his concerns that the show is steering further and further from the source material and why he thinks that is a mistake. I happen to agree with him. The first season was great. Each subsequent one less so. I can’t imagine how exchanging one hot actor for another without addressing the deviation into the realm of mundanity is giong to make it more appealing. So the answer is yes. for those of us that think this would be better by sticking to the feel of the books, he did warn us of what is to come. Will I continue to watch? Probably, but a part of me will mourn for what we could have had.

considering the extensive NDAs he has to sign and the fallout of losing future roles from comments like that, I wouldn’t be surprised if they had him say that to drum up some drama and get people to keep watching and see what Hemsworth brings to the table. Like the Rock in the Fast Franchise. I think that stuff was BS to get people to keep coming after the lead died.
