Henry Cavill

Netflix's *The Witcher* faced existential questions over its durability after Henry Cavill's exit, subverted by *Nightmare of the Wolf*, the studio's first animated standalone entry-proving the franchise thrives independently. Set 300 years before Geralt, it follows young Vesemir as his order falls to conspiracy and echoes of the earlier Tragedy.
