Henry Cavill Reportedly Nearly Left The Witcher After Season 2
Away from VR now, as a new report has revealed that Henry Cavill allegedly wanted to step down as Geralt in Netflix’s The Witcher series after Season 2.

That doesn’t necessarily mean the game’s DLC will contain 30 bosses, but it does mean that if some DLC is announced, it’ll likely contain a bunch more tough enemies to take on.
