The Witcher season 4 kicks off with Clive Russell's Stribog recounting some of Geralt's finest – and not-so-finest – hours.. Crucially, though, some details are different when revisiting scenes such as Ciri's forest reunion and Geralt's showdown with Vilgefortz – not least of all that, this time, The White Wolf is played by Liam Hemsworth.
Far from rewriting history and overwriting the outgoing Henry Cavill, The Witcher showrunner and creator Lauren Schmidt Hissrich chanced upon the idea as a further exploration of the series' fascination with blurring the lines in storytelling.
