What Henry Cavill Thought About ‘The Witcher’s’ Comparison to &#8216;Game of Thrones&#8217;

The Witcher has been one of the most popular shows on Netflix. From a game to a
show, it has come a long way. And now, the show is on its way to the release of
its third season. Henry Cavill has gotten a lot of praise for how he plays
Geralt of Rivia in the show. The show is based on a series of books of the same
name by a Polish author, Andrzej Sapkowski. However, being a fantasy show of a
certain era, The Witcher was initially compared to Game Of Thrones a lot.

HENRY CAVILL COMPARES THE SHOWS IN A SMART WAY

Henry Cavill did an interview with NME [https://www.youtube.com/user/NMETV],
where he cleared up the misconception of The Witcher
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/the-witcher/] being influenced by Game of
Thrones. He told the host that, first, he was very flattered by the comparison
made. This was when The Witcher was a new release, and Game of Thrones
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-herny-cavill-worked-with-this-fan-favorite-game-of-thrones-actress-before-becoming-the-witcher/]
was a brand.



According to him, the true comparison is made when the popularity of both shows
is compared. And once this comparison is made, so end the similarities. “But
that’s like saying someone is going to be the next Tom Cruise. No one is going
to take Tom Cruise’s place,” he said, which is a fair and square comparison.

Further, he added that he loves fantasy and is a big fan of it. The actor said
that his dad would read him books before he could read on his own. He said it
was just slightly different from most fantasy books. Cavill mentioned that the
series is a little darker, and he was told that this is the Polish way. So there
is a lot of Polish in it. He said that the show was more serious than he
expected, which he found interesting.
