I think it’s probably fair to say that many who have a Netflix subscription are still in a state for some information they received in late October 2022. It was then that the internet exploded with the news that Henry Cavill had chosen to leave The sorcerer after the third season (which had already finished filming at the time). Fans of the hit fantasy drama were so outraged that started a petition bring it Justice League the actor returns and fires all the writers. Now, with viewer outcry still ongoing, the author of the books on which the series is based has shared his thoughts on the streaming adaptation, and Cavill’s fans will likely agree with him.
What did the author of The Witcher say about the Netflix series?
All those who want the extravagant lover, board game figurine painting actor Geralt (which is currently working on a adaptation of war hammer Games ) to return to the show is still speaking out online through this petition, which now has over 308,000 signatures. Fans have come up with a theory as to why the former Superman star decided to leave that particular monster fighting ship, which mostly focuses on the fact that she’s not on board with all the change to The sorcerer the story of as stated in various books.
Andrzej Sapkowski, who wrote these books, recently spoke at the Taipei International Book Exhibition, ea Chirping The current user shared his thoughts on the hit show, after being asked about it, and something tells me many Cavill fans will be looking to find out where the writer is coming from:
I’ve seen better. I’ve seen worse.
Hate. Now, there’s no way to know if Sapkowski (who has she said she liked the puzzle ) went into further detail, but this quote alone says it all. If you’re on the side of a TV show, you’re not admitting that you’ve seen better things, nor are you saying there are worse things. His words firmly established his opinion of Netflix. The sorcerer somewhere in the not-so-great middle ground, and while it’s a more welcome sight than hating it outright, it’s still nothing to get excited about.
Despite Sword Strike’s success, reviews were somewhat mixed. The first season brought a lot confusion about the three deadlines used inside, and fans have been amazed at how the story progresses (e rumors suggest the fantasy star feels the same way long before he quit) on the show, and many agree that the main reason to keep watching is the star himself, who worked hard to get the role of Geralt de Riv and he was incredibly eager to bring a property he already loved to life.
With him handing over his Ciri-rescuing duties to Liam Hemsworth for season 4 (and potentially beyond), many said they’d stop watching after the following The sorcerer season 3 and threatened to quit the streaming service altogether. An earlier report from a former writer on the show that several other creatives were “actively mocking the source material,” combined with the apparent failure of the first live-action spin-off , The Witcher: Origin of Bloodand what the original author has now said probably won’t do anything to change those feelings.
The showrunner has been trying to keep fans excited about the epic story making fun of Cavill’s “heroic despatch”. it’s almost begging them to stay for a third season, but only time will tell whether that works out for the show or not.
