Netflix released the first teaser for the upcoming season of the series Warlock. It will be marked by a big change: Liam Hemsworth replaces Henry Cavill in the role of Geralt of Rivia.
Promotion season 4 from Witchr started. It won’t be an easy feat for Netflix: it’s symbolized by a key change in its cast. After several years of good and loyal service, Henry Cavill hands over the costume of Geralt of Rivia to Liam Hemsworth – Chris’s younger brother (who shines as the “bad guy” in Furiosa: The Mad Max Saga).
We haven’t had a chance to see Liam Hemsworth in the role of Geralt of Rivia yet. Now it has been done thanks to a short teaser Warlock aired on May 22. Netflix starts slowly with hazy images, showing the silhouette of the hero who will eventually turn around to reveal his face. For the atmosphere, the soundtrack allows us to enjoy the growling of the monster.
Liam Hemsworth replaces Henry Cavill in the first teaser for the fourth season of The Witcher
The task does not look easy at all for Liam Hemsworth, who will have to convince and suffer from comparisons with Henry Cavill. The latter, also relaxed as Superman, shone as Geralt, especially thanks to his passion for the Witcher. His departure would also be motivated by disagreements with the screenwriters. He would like something closer to the books.
Of course, the teaser doesn’t let you judge Liam Hemsworth’s performance. We can hardly say that the resemblance exists, despite the somewhat finer facial features. Either way, Henry Cavill’s defenders are already out there to criticize the change. Just read a few replies below the platform’s tweets to take the temperature. ” Henry was perfect for the role », points out Nathalie May. ” Henry Cavill is my only Geralt », agrees Kast2. Funkositox adds: “ No Cavill, no fun. » Merica Memed continues: “ A downgraded Thor plays Geralt. It’s already awful. »
Because, yes, Liam Hemsworth also applied for the role of Thor, which eventually went to his brother. Let’s remember, however, that he did not hesitate to make a rather impressive physical transformation in order to be more muscular than ever. In April, on his Instagram profile, he showed his evolution materialized with huge arms and veins ready to explode. No one will be able to attack him for not participating.
Judging by prejudice, Liam Hemsworth will have to live with these criticisms for two whole seasons, since it was announced that Warlock will end at the end of the fifth season.
