Netflix shares first look of Liam Hemsworth in ‘The Witcher’ season 4 tease

Netflix has shared the first look of Liam Hemsworth as Geralt of Rivia, the new lead in ‘The Witcher’ series, replacing Henry Cavill.

In the Season Four teaser, Geralt is seen leading his horse through foggy terrain, reacting to ominous sounds behind him, showcasing Hemsworth’s portrayal of the character.

In October 2022, Netflix announced Cavill’s departure from the series after three seasons. Cavill stated, “My journey as Geralt of Rivia has been filled with both monsters and adventures, and alas, I will be laying down my medallion and my swords for Season 4. In my stead, the fantastic Mr. Liam Hemsworth will be taking up the mantle of the White Wolf. As with the greatest of literary characters, I pass the torch with reverence for the time spent embodying Geralt and enthusiasm to see Liam’s take on this most fascinating and nuanced of men.”

Hemsworth expressed his excitement about assuming the role, acknowledging Cavill’s fantastic portrayal and expressing gratitude for being entrusted with continuing Geralt’s journey. “Henry Cavill has been an incredible Geralt, and I’m honored that he’s handing me the reins and allowing me to take up the White Wolf’s blades for the next chapter of his adventure,” he shared.

Addressing Cavill, Hemsworth praised the actor’s performance, writing, “Henry, I’ve been a fan of yours for years and was inspired by what you brought to this beloved character. I may have some big boots to fill, but I’m truly excited to be stepping into The Witcher world.”

In a November 2021 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Cavill expressed his commitment to ‘The Witcher’ series, aiming to support creator Lauren Schmidt Hissrich’s vision of at least seven seasons. However, Netflix recently revealed that ‘The Witcher’ will conclude with its fifth season, with the last two seasons being filmed consecutively.
