When adapting books into television shows or movies, it’s common to see differences between the two. However, some actors take it upon themselves to ensure the adaptation is as true to the source material as possible. This was the case for Henry Cavill, who played Geralt of Rivia in the hit show “The Witcher”.
During the second season, there was a scene where Geralt had to say goodbye to his horse, Roach. Being an avid reader of the books, Cavill noticed that the scene didn’t accurately reflect the relationship between Geralt and Roach in the source material. So, he took it upon himself to improvise part of the scene, making it more in line with the books. This attention to detail and dedication to the source material is one of the reasons why “The Witcher” has been so successful among fans of the books and the show alike.
