THE WITCHER: Get Your First Official Look At JUSTICE LEAGUE Actor Henry Cavill As Geralt
As a Halloween treat, Netflix has released what appears to be some test footage from the upcoming adaptation of The Witcher, and it gives us our first official look at Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia...
After setting the rumor mill into overdrive upon revealing how much he'd love to play the character, Superman actor Henry Cavill was recently cast as Geralt of Rivia in Netflix's adaptation of The Witcher, and now we have our first official look at him in costume.
While Cavill is sporting Geralt's signature grey hair, he is clean-shaven and doesn't appear to have yellow eyes. He's also missing that prominent scar, although he could well pick that up at some point as the show progresses, of course.
Perhaps this is simply a younger version of the character?
The 8-episode first season will be written by Lauren Schmidt Hissrich (Daredevil, The Defenders, Umbrella Academy), who will also serve as executive producer and showrunner. Alik Sakharov (House of Cards, Game of Thrones) will helm a total of four episodes, while Alex Garcia Lopez (Luke Cage, Fear The Walking Dead) and Charlotte Brändström (Outlander, Counterpart) will direct two installments each.
