- 

A new era dawns for The Witcher as Liam Hemsworth steps into Geralt of Rivia's iconic battle-worn boots, replacing Man of Steel's Henry Cavill for the final two seasons.

But when he first got the call, The Hunger Games star was hesitant to take up the sword.

In the new eight-part run, formidable monster-slayer Geralt, AKA the White Wolf, is separated from his soulmate, sorceress Yennefer of Vengerberg, and Witcher apprentice and 'Child of Surprise, Cirilla 'Ciri' of Cintra.
