Cavill’s true reason for exiting the series remains unclear but fans didn’t receive it positively. In fact, most of them plan on boycotting the show altogether if Netflix doesn’t bring him back for future seasons. Now, one of the show’s creatives is breaking their silence on the whole ordeal.In an interview with TechRadar at The Witcher: Blood Origin’s UK junket, showrunner Lauren Hissrich says she fully understands the fans’ sentiments regarding Cavill’s jaw-dropping but pleads with them to continue their support as Liam Hemsworth takes over the Geralt role.She said: “It’s a big deal for us, too. And that’s the thing – there’s a lot of talk and rumors about and we fully understand why fans are going there. What I will say is please come back for The Witcher season three so that we can continue to do this. Obviously, that [Cavill’s departure] is huge news. But what I don’t want to do is – this has to stay about Blood Origin, Declan [de Barra, Blood Origin’s showrunner], the cast, and the crew. This is their time in the spotlight.“Also Read: The Witcher: Real Reason Behind Henry Cavill’s Shocking Exit Reportedly RevealedCavill’s departure from The Witcher is an incredible loss for the franchise and Netflix’s decision to push through with its fourth season seems like a questionable creative decision, especially considering Henry has already set the tone for it.
