I don't have high hopes for this show considering one of the writers wants to inject her ideology of multiculturalism into it, There's a time and place for it, The Witcher is not it.

Agreed. Not to sure about him playing Geralt either. He's to clean cut.

Well... Finally we can get over the ridicules notion that Mads Mikkelsen is Geralt. I'm pretty sure he was only a fan favorite due to a role he had in a viking movie and his rough voice. I'm quite fine with Henry Cavill getting the part.

I honestly have no idea who in the world could even do him justice compared to the voice actor from Witcher 3. Although he gave Henry his blessing as a gesture of confidence. So we shall see

That's what the makeup is for. Besides, the show won't be based on the games, so no one should expect him to look like the video game version of Geralt.

The video game version isn't all that clean cut and probably is the best interpretation of anything else created for the world of Witcher. As for it being based off the books, I read them all, I know what to expect. Hell even playing the Witcher games you'd know what to expect. Since CDPR did such an amazing job
