In her recent chat with Variety, the talented actress who is playing the role of the Yennefer of Vengerberg, opened up about Henry Cavill's exit from The Witcher. Interestingly, Anya Chalotra revealed that the cast members were unaware of Cavill's decision to quit the series until they finished shooting for The Witcher Season 3. According to the actress, she was as surprised as the fans were, about the leading man's exit from Netflix's popular show. "He is very involved in his understanding and portrayal of this character. It is something that he has always been so passionate about from day one, about these characters and this story," stated Anya Chalotra, who heaped praises on her former co-star Henry Cavill.
"We didn’t know about his exit until after we filmed Season 3. And it’s always emotional filming at the end of any season — you know, that last scene you do with the people that you’ve worked with for eight months. But you live in that moment. And we didn’t know till post-filming," recalled the actress. "I think we will all feel that loss. He’s been with us since day one. We’ve been through a lot together. It’s been five years of not only this world that we have in “The Witcher,” but COVID — all these things that we’ve gone through together, and it’s a strong bond," she added.
