​@@elliotjohnson9415 Not outright no but there are a few interviews that heavily points in that direction aswell as with the news that he was battling with the showrunners on an almost daily basis to stay true to the books that rumors started to come out that they wanted to replace him. The scene where Geralt is kneeling and says goodbye to hes horse Roach was entierly scripted by Henry himself. The writers wanted to make it like a semi comedy moment becouse he names all horses Roach and Henry refused to go along with what they wanted to do so they simply told him to come up with the scene. And the next day whats in the series is what he came up with. Many say thats the best scene in Season 2.

The same with the actors of Dandelion, Ciri, Triss... I think the series has its qualities and I don´t mind, if the source material isn´t exactly adapted in another medium.

He's human and yes, I do believe going against the norms (in "Hollywood" in his case) and opening up about nerdy things that make you happy is brave.

They know of their characters, but they don't love them or fully understand them. I hope this changed in season 2 due to Henry's great passion, and I hope they have learned from example.

Cavill is the average geek/gamers icon as far as living a normal life in society with your hobbies out for anyone to see.

Always plenty of attractive young guys in there with me, playing cards or tabletop-games. Older dudes like me are definitely a minority in the gaming world - at least for now, until all these youngsters come back with their kids in a few years :)

i think the exact reason why the show was sucessful was Henry was Geralt, him having as a popular actor especially on his iconic role as a superman, adding the fact that he has "nerd" side like the most of the gaming or pop culture community, really gave way for people to really embraced it...

What I love about Cavill is that he stays true to himself. Like he doesn't lie about himself being a nerd, play video games and painting figurines. He didn't let his career change him and that is what admire him the most, he is good-looking, jacked, honest, modest and very sincere.

Well, they didn't listen, and now they will learn.

There is something really telling here, Henry Cavill gets what he is saying. He knows and is passionate about what he's doing. Moreover, rather than claiming the success of the series for himself, he attributes the success of the series to the dedicated fans, and the production of Netflix. Series one is really problematic, but it is enjoyable. This man cares about what he's doing, and shows humility for the successes him and his peers have made. This is the same reason why I like actors like Viggo Mortensen. It's really great to see people who elevate the craft by bringing others up rather than pushing others down to make themselves look better.

For a sort of gatekeeper-nerd, of which I consider myself, though the actors in the series are good and Cavill is a godsend, it kind of breaks immersion when it diverts this much from close to decades-old established lore, and not in a reasonable way as in (early-to-mid) GoT, The series almost borders on "inspired by" rather than "based on", if you catch my drift.

Agree. And I don't really like what Graham did. Sometimes we deeply love some nerdy stuff or whatever. It is not very good when people don't respect what we love.

Honestly I think half of people watching would just love to have a hobby like that. You can't finish a. Days work, go home and watch TV for a few hours then go to bed, then make fun of people who go home and have something to do that they're passionate about. I envy those who have something to do that they love instead of distracting themselves doing things like watching KZread videos

If you liked Henry talking about Warhammer, check out Henry building his own pc. Such a lovely nerd.

It was fun and endearing and atrocious all at once, since it took him the better part of a day to get it up and running. That being said, it brings him much closer to the average person than other celebrities who could have e.g. phoned Linus and arranged for a celebrity sprinkle and endorsement while Linus and co. made them a custom behemoth machine.

It's a hilarious video. Please watch it on his Instagram.

Henry Cavill is the best gift The Witcher could ever get. If they ever consider making another warcraft movie he should without doubt be in!

Dude's knowledge about it all is so good, and his version of Geralt is so much like the game's. Probably because he played it.

But... but... What about Vin Diesel? He was the OG buff nerd

Love Tom Holland even more now. Perhaps unintentionally, Graham had kind of made Henry Cavill look rather childish with the way he had phrased his questions and comments, and for a moment when Graham asked "Do you invite people over" I was hoping he'd go one step further and say "Could I play?" and end the subject on a mutually respectful note, but he didn't. Then Tom did, and I love him immensely for that.

It was extremely intentional from Graham, making fun of geeky hobbies is always an easy laugh. Why do you think he followed Tom's comment up with 'the girls are like, ya don't ask us to come'. Pretty disrespectful tbh. Sure, society sees it as childlike - but that doesn't mean you have to make the joke. Many in society still think being gay is funny, doesn't mean you crack a joke about a guest being gay.

@@Colphin Graham Norton is gay himself, so that's a bit different. There's also a difference between standup jokes and interview jokes. Idk just seems weird when there isn't anything really creative to the joke just 'haha you like this thing and others don't so it's funny'. To non-sport nerds, obsessing over sports and watching 10 different shows talking about it is silly - but a joke just mocking sports fans wouldn't land because it is socially accepted

Its a freaking talk show, he is literally paid to joke around the guests.

Imitation isn't easy, but this guy did it top notch and gave the character a whole new breath to it. Well done, Cavill! Wish you would stick around for season 4.

6:34 It was 10 months ago... RIP THE WITCHER, Thanks Cavil for what you've done until today for Witcher Series. It's so sad that Netflix with Lauren crashed, burned books, and spit on the game series.

Tom asking to come make Warhammer figurines with Henry is fucking adorable

Its hilarious and kind of wholesome watching him go from serious actor mode to Witcher nerd in under a second to give a detailed breakdown of witcher lore.

Henry Cavill is the only reason I watch Witcher. If they replaced him, I will never care about the show anymore because of terrible writing (Rewriting)
