Did you like The Witcher series?

Postby gwolf666 » 22 Jan 2026, 20:35

I started watching the series recently; it premiered in 2019 and has four seasons. I'm only on the first season, but that doesn't mean I can't ask: Did you like the series? Did it live up to your expectations? If you liked the game, you probably liked this series a lot, right?

But be prepared that by season 4, Henry Cavill will not be on season 4. He got replaced by Liam Hemsworth because there is a fight between the head writer and Henry Cavill, so Henry Cavill quit.

Apparently, Liam Hemsworth is going to have more than one season, because after season 4, they renewed it for season 5, so Liam Hemsworth is guaranteed two seasons at least. I guess being Thor's brother give him perks.

I just found out from you all that Henry won't be in it anymore, what a shame. I guess when I get to the fourth season I'll see if I give it a chance or not, but it's a pity, Henry was definitely the perfect actor for this series.

I've watched it and enjoyed it. I haven't played the game or read the books, but the series is worth a watch. Having watched it I would consider reading the books at some time in the future.

You didn't mention the name of the series but if you mean The Witcher or Castlevania then it's really hot. These types of movies delight me gaming fan by bringing favorite stories to life.

You wanna know why Henry is so good at this series? It's because he is a real fan of the source material. He read the books and he played the video games.I do not like him as Superman, but I'm definitely supportive of him as Geralt, but he has a feud with the writer of the show because of things that she did that doesn't follow the books. So he's now doing the Highlander movie and Voltron.

Henry Cavill's departure from the series has come as a huge shock to many fans. Liam Hemsworth taking over is a tough test because people are used to the original character. Professional infighting is ruining the flavor of the entertainment we love.

Henry Cavill leaving is disappointing for many fans. He really fit the role of Geralt.

Lauren Schmidt Hissrich is the person to blame because she wants to do a lot of changes to the script that doesn't follow the novel and the video games. It became beyond recognition, and Henry Cavill wants a faithful adaptation, so Netflix have to choose between her and Henry Cavill, and Netflix decided to go for the more feminist option.

Basically, this showrunner is power-tripping.

The tension surrounding The Witcher series really comes down to the creative direction. Lauren Schmidt Hissrich, as showrunner, has taken liberties with the source material. She changes plots and character arcs in ways that don’t always align with Andrzej Sapkowski’s novels or video games. That’s why some fans, even Henry Cavill, have pushed for a more faithful adaptation.

Cavill has been vocal about wanting the series to stay true to the original story, while Netflix ultimately backed Hissrich’s broader vision, which emphasizes reinterpretation and new themes. For some viewers, those changes feel refreshing; for others, they make the show “unrecognizable” compared to the original.

_The Witcher_ series, based on Andrzej Sapkowski’s novels, follows monster‑hunting Geralt of Rivia, blending fantasy, politics, and morality, sparking viewer debates about its dark tone, adaptations from books to Netflix shows, and its impact on modern fantasy television storytelling
