I've seen every episode of The Witcher on Netflix and worked out who is the better Geralt – Henry Cavill or Liam Hemsworth

Henry Cavil and Liam Hemsworth as Geralt in The Witcher.

The Witcher Season 4 is finally here on Netflix, and with it, we’ve also finally gotten to meet the new Geralt of Rivia, played by Liam Hemsworth. There’s a lot of pressure on the Hunger Games star as he’s not only stepping in for the fourth season, but he’s replacing actor Henry Cavill – a man who has consistently been the focus of passionate fan campaigns thanks to his role as Superman in the late DCEU (DC Extended Universe). With that in mind, let’s do the most journalistically responsible thing and decide who is better as Geralt: Henry Cavill or Liam Hemsworth?

To be clear, every actor is different in a role. The circumstances around this casting switch have been both heavily reported and shrouded in secrecy, something that could impact how you view the different performances. And overall, it’s unfair to compare two people to each other when it’s clear they’re both working long hours and extremely hard at their jobs.
