As most of you will already know by now, The Witcher is being turned into a Netflix series and, naturally, fans of the white-haired monster slayer have been extremely interested in finding out who will get to play Geralt of Rivia.
Just a few weeks ago during an interview Superman actor Henry Cavill confirmed that he was a fan of the Witcher series and said that he would love to tackle the role of Geralt. Obviously someone at Netflix was listening, liked the idea, and got in touch with Cavill's agent because it was just confirmed a few moments ago that Cavill will take the lead role in the upcoming fantasy series.
There aren't too many plot details doing the rounds just yet, although Variety suggests that Geralt will be teaming up with a powerful sorceress and a princess with a secret, and together they'll be exploring a typically immoral fantasy world full of monsters to slay. The series set to play out across eight episodes.
