Liam Hemsworth Gets Candid About His “Unique” Situation With ‘The Witcher’ Season 4

In a bold move that sparked both excitement and debate among fans, Netflix’s hit series The Witcher is gearing up for a significant change as Liam Hemsworth steps into the iconic role of Geralt of Rivia for Season 4, previously held by Henry Cavill. Audiences got their first sneak peek at the actor’s smooth transition this past spring with a tease from the streaming platform of the gruff warrior who slayed monsters in the show’s first three seasons. With Cavill having officially passed the torch to Hemsworth, the actor tells Collider exclusively while talking about his new Netflix film Lonely Planet that the entire situation was a “unique” one that no one anticipated, but he’s very excited about it.

“I don’t think many actors have ever dealt with — apart from maybe the people that have played the Doctor Who characters over the years, because predominantly the rest of the cast has stayed the same, but the lead actor has changed,” Hemsworth said, adding how his addition feels a lot like starting school where everyone knows each other, but without the feelings of being an outsider. “Everyone has been nothing but welcoming and extremely aware of what the situation is.”
