It's confirmed: Henry Cavill definitely isn't coming back as The Witcher, the prequel series of which is already getting terrible reviews

Meanwhile, Cavill’s exit couldn’t be more of a blow to the franchise. Showrunner Lauren Schmidt Hissrich herself, in an interview with me back in 2019, raved about what Cavill brings to the series in a way that just can’t be papered over now. “He’s a dream to work with, but even more than that, and the fact that he’s a genuinely nice human being — he is absolutely obsessed with Geralt in a way I could not even fathom when we met,”“He has so thoroughly steeped himself in this world.

With any actor, a little piece of them comes into the role they’re playing. Henry has a stoicism to him and sort of a quiet thoughtfulness that he has instilled in Geralt.”is entering the picture at a time when it feels like the main show’s Season 2 debut was much less of an event. The main series’ Rotten Tomatoes audience scores from Season 1 to Season 2 plummeted from 90% to 59%, with many fans pointing to Cavill’s participation as one of its few saving graces.
