澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Witcher showrunner Lauren Schmidt Hissrich has shared some insight into 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Henry Cavill's recasting𒀰 as Geralt of Rivia . The actor will be hanging up his sword after the upcoming season 3 as 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Hunger Games star Liam Hemsworth replaces him.
During a conversation with Hissrich in anticipation of the upcoming prequel series The Witcher: Blood Origin, GamesRadar+ asked about the decision and what’s next for the series. "I'm so excitedꦓ for viewers," she says of the recasting. "I think that it's just a new chapter for us. And I think new chapters bring new energy and that people will find things to love🐷. So yeah, personally, I'm really excited."
Joey Batey, who plays Jaskier in Blood Origin and the main Witcher series, was also on hand to answer our questions about the recasting and the actor revealed that he’s alreadﷺy spoken with ꦜHemsworth.
"I'm obviously gonna miss Henry a huge amount," Batey tells us. "Hen♍ry and I are very, very good pals and he has been the stalwart of the show, the gravity of the show, and the driving force of the show for four years now.
"But Liam, I've already spoken to him a little bit. He is throwing himself into the deep end of this mythos and this canon with such power and grace and aplomb that I'm re♑ally excited to work with him and to see the kind of interpretation that he's going to bring together. I think it's exciting."
Hissrich is an executive producer on Blood Origin alongside showrunner Declan de Barra. The series is set some thousands of years before the events of the main show and follows a group of seven outcasts brought together under mysterious circumstances.
