Before giving out spoilers, every episode extends more than an hour, which is not less than a movie in itself, and secondly, the two consecutive storylines of the witcher, Geralt of Rivia (Henry Cavill), and princess Cirilla (Freya Allan) of Cintra will introduce you to a bunch of talented actors and of course, a magical and intricately woven story will leave you spellbound. Though this world doesn't have any unicorns and rainbows to give you, new spells in Elder, a language popular among the mutants and mages, and supreme spirits to encounter as you delve deeper in the world of The Witcher.
All the Superman and DC fans will find Henry Cavill as 'The Witcher' to be a perfect fit for the character. The man of few words, who has a brooding personality yearning to swipe off the evil with his sword will make you go weak on your knees. His silver hair, which makes him stand out in the crowd of brunettes and redheads, and chiselled physique is shown aesthetically flawless by the creators. The Witcher has just popped out from the books by Andrzej Sapkowski in the form of reality as Henry Cavill.
