Speaking about the decision, Cavill said: "My journey as Geralt of Rivia has been filled♋ with both monsters and adventures, and alas, I will be layꦕing down my medallion and my swords for Season 4. I pass the torch with reverence for the time spent embodying Geralt and enthusiasm to see Liam's take on this most fascinating and nuanced of men."

Showrunner Lauren Schmidt Hissrich also told GamesRadar+ how excited she waꦡs about Hemsworth🐈 joining last December. "I think that it's just a new ✨chapter for us," she said. "And I think new chapters bring new energy and that people will find things to love."
