Netflix has just announced that the actor Henry Cavill AKA Superman will be the protagonist Geralt of Rivia in Netflix’s upcoming series The Witcher, based on the franchise started by Andrzej Sapkowski and popularized by the game series by CD Projekt Red.

Here is what Lauren Schmidt Hissrich, showrunner and executive producer of the series has to say about this announcement:

He was my first meeting. I didn’t have writers or scripts yet – just a greenlight and a lot of passion. That was four months ago, and I’ve never forgotten the passion he brought. He IS Geralt. He always has been. I’m so thrilled to welcome HENRY CAVILL to the #Witcher family.

The business savvy monster hunter and all around bad ass White Wolf will be hitting the streaming screens of Netflix with his motley crew of champions on a yet to be announced date.

Great casting, I approve it.
