The Witcher’s New Geralt Liam Hemsworth Has Been “Devouring”

In a major shakeup, Henry Cavill is stepping down as Geralt in Netflix’s The Witcher TV series, with Liam Hemsworth coming in to replace him for Season 4. And from the sound of it, Hemsworth is coming to the role after a good amount of preparation.
