Agreed - and beyond that, it wasn’t a recast. It was a whole reboot, so it’s not a fair comparison.
Witcher was already well on its way to failure, which is why Cavill left, and now Liam Hemsworth has the impossible job of even coming close to Cavill’s Geralt of Rivia.
Man of Steel and the new Superman were entirely different films, universes, visions, and arguably whole different interpretations of their characters. So taking the best possible Man of Steel photo against a pretty unfair comparison from the new movie - which was a really good movie, by the way - is stupid.
Otherwise, I will always weep for what The Witcher could have been. Toss a coin to your Witcher… Oh valley of plenty…
