<p>Andrzej Sapkowski is the acclaimed Polish author and creator of <em>The Witcher</em> series. He has had a significant impact on the portrayal of Geralt of Rivia in various forms of media. When they announced <a href="http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/henry-cavill/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Henry Cavill</a> would play the iconic character in Netflix&#8217;s adaptation, it sparked both excitement and curiosity among fans worldwide. <strong>Sapkowski&#8217;s opinion on Cavill&#8217;s casting and his subsequent performance as Geralt has been a subject of interest for many. Once, the author gave the English actor the highest honor as he compared him with <em>The Lord of the Rings</em> star. </strong></p>
<p>Sapkowski&#8217;s relationship with The Witcher series and its adaptations has been complex. Initially, he was hesitant to embrace the idea of video game adaptations of his books. But he eventually acknowledged their positive influence on the popularity and reach of his works. However, it was Cavill&#8217;s portrayal in the Netflix series that truly brought Geralt to life for a new generation of fans.</p>

<p>The novel writer even praised the Superman actor for his professionalism as well. And while Sapkowski and fans of the show wanted Cavill to Geralt forever, after the third season, fans will not see him as the witcher.</p>
<h2>Liam Hemsworth will replace Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia from the season 4</h2>
<p>As everyone is aware, fans and critics alike have widely praised Henry Cavill&#8217;s portrayal of Geralt. He has brought the character to life with his rugged looks, intense acting, and dedication to the role. Hemsworth, on the other hand, has a different acting style and physical appearance, which might take some getting used to for fans of the series. <strong>However, the British actor posted on his Instagram that he was handing over the swords and Medallions to the Australian actor. </strong></p>
