Henry Cavill fucking killed it in The Witcher

I know people are probably sick of seeing the show talked about on Reddit, but I was finally able to finish the show and just wanted to gush over Henry for a bit. Don’t worry, this isn’t a post gushing over the entire show about how it’s this amazing cinematic achievement (overall I liked it, but it definitely has some big flaws. I’d probably rate it a 7/10). But Henry brought his A game and it really showed.

I remember when I first learned he was playing Geralt I went “really? Him?” and wasn’t really on board. But then I learned how much of a fan he is of the games and the books, and that gave me a little more hope. But I was still worried that I’d just see “Henry Cavill in a white wig”, and not Geralt. But I think he definitely brought Geralt to life. As an avid fan of the games, I was very pleased with how he was able to do a mixture of his own take while also paying tribute to Doug Cockle’s voice for Geralt from the games. He’s not perfect of course (but I think most of my issues with his performance would be more with the writing than his actual performance) but he showed quite a bit of range I thought he did a damn great job. I’m really looking forward to seeing him again.
