I just can't picture that. I think they got a big name to say yes and went with it instead of cast someone who actually fit the role.

idk

Honestly would have to hear his Geralt voice. To me the voice of Geralt is ingrained in my mind as the one in the games and if Cavill can't come close to that it will bug me a great deal.

Cavill lobbied for the role and is a really big fan of both the books and the games. At the very least he'll seriously care about it.

cavill is a big gamer & is into the source material, i think hes a good fit.

aesthetics dont matter as much, get him a white wig and some contact lenses and you're all set

I'm just confused why people are siked for a series of this. It's not like the Witcher had an incredible story...

Kill medieval monsters, the Black Knight is chasing you, you're one of a few remaining jedi-esque swordsman with a dark past. Along the way you encounter elves that live in trees and dwarves that craft things...come on.

Most stories are rehashes of something. Just all depends on the execution and if it's something you vibe with.

He is old, but the process that turns witchers into witchers makes them virtually immortal. Like, they pretty much won't die of old age. I'm not sure if any witcher ever died of old age. I think Geralt's mentor is/was close to a thousand years old? Maybe I'm mistaken and it's a bit less than that.

A wig and makeup and he'll look exactly like geralt. Stuff like that isn't to worry about. The bigger question is can he play the part.

I think he's like 150 but I could be wrong
