THE WITCHER fans launch petition to replace writers and bring back Henry Cavill

Virtually every fan of The witcher series is disappointed that Henry Cavill left the series and was replaced by Liam Hemsworth, who will play Geralt. Of course, fans will be shocked! Cavill is what made the show, and he was so passionate about the character and the story! He’s the perfect Geralt, but that passion for the source material is what drove him out because the creative team wanted to take things in a different direction. It’s a shame.

It was reported that Cavill was considering leaving the show after the second season due to clashes with producers regarding the show’s content and Geralt’s role. Cavill expressed his frustrations with this during the press tour for season 2 saying, “The hardest part for me was finding that balance between the showrunners’ vision and my love of the books.”

Fans have now launched a Change.org petition approaching 200,000 signatures demanding that the show’s writers and showrunner be replaced with talent who will stay true to the source material and bring Cavill back into the role. The Petition reads:

Andrzej Sapkowski himself said about Henry Cavill: “I was more than happy with the appearance of Henry Cavill as The Witcher, he is a real professional. Just as Viggo Mortensen gave his face to Aragorn, so Henry gave his face to Geralt and it will be forever.

Henry Won’t Quit The Witcher Because Of Superman, Netflix Executives Have Once Again Made A Serious Decision Against Delivery For Their Fans. The reason The Witcher is such a popular show is the fans’ love of the source material from books and games, which are loathed and actively mocked by the writers and showrunner. Henry Cavill is one of those big fans, he knows everything inside out and he wanted to stay true to Sapkowski’s world which is why Netflix wants to replace him.

Let’s show them in sheer numbers (and therefore lost money, because that’s all they really care about) that none of us Witcher fans will stand by them and walk away from the show (and potentially our subscriptions) after The Witcher season 3 concludes . Netflix can only exist because we all pay them monthly to produce content we enjoy, sadly all public information points towards a production team making decisions completely opposite to fans – our – interests.

We’ve already had to suffer the disaster that was the end of Game of Thrones: NETFLIX doesn’t repeat the exact same mistake of holding on to writers and showrunners who believe themselves superior to the actual creator of the stories that made them successful.

It’s pretty crazy that Netflix actually sided with the creative team on Cavill when Cavill is the most marketable thing in the series! It was a bad business move. I have a feeling they will pay for it. I mean, I’m not interested in watching the show without Cavill, and there are a lot of like-minded fans!

I know Netflix won’t make any changes based on a fan petition, but they’ll realize what they’ve done when the show’s ratings drop dramatically when Season 4 debuts.
