Who’s the richest Witcher? Henry Cavill and Liam Hemsworth’s net worths, compared: The Hunger Games actor replaces the Superman star as Geralt of Rivia in season 4, but how does their wealth compare?
- Liam Hemsworth will replace Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia in season four of Netflix’s hit fantasy series The Witcher, prompting plenty of fan debate about the big lead actor shake-up
- The Superman hero has a higher net worth and loves Ducati motorbikes, while The Hunger Games heartthrob has a US$24 million property portfolio in Australia and prefers surfing
Netflix’s hit show The Witcher is having a massive cast shake-up.
After two successful seasons, (season two clocked 541 million viewing hours within the first 28 days of its release alone, per Variety), The Witcher’s beloved character Geralt of Rivia will be played by Liam Hemsworth in season four instead of Henry Cavill.
Cavill announced the news on Instagram. “My journey as Geralt of Rivia has been filled with both monsters and adventures, and alas, I will be laying down my medallion and my swords for season four. In my stead, the fantastic Mr Liam Hemsworth will be taking up the mantle of the White Wolf,” Cavill wrote on October 30.
The British heartthrob will still return in season three, which is reportedly releasing during the summer of 2023, for one last time. However, the lead shake-up sparked fan ire on social media, as many shared concerns about whether Hemsworth is able to portray Geralt as well as Cavill did. Cavill’s return as Superman is also speculated to be a main reason for his exit.
While fans are still divisive over the news, Cavill and Hemsworth actually share some similarities, with both being successful non-Americans actors in Hollywood who carved niche careers while making big bucks along the way.
Let’s take a look at how their net worths, salaries, property portfolios and cars compare …
