Who is your favorite character in The Witcher?

[@missmimi6817]

Anya all the way, Geralt 2nd and Tissaia 3rd

[@enidiag9548]

1. Yen - Anya is talented actress, 2. Geralt - Henry

[@flatline9737]

Geralt 1st, jaskier 2nd, vesemir 3rd.

[@lindaterrell5535]

Roach.

[@sumerajaved]

yennefer of vengerberg

[@AlbertBergen]

Actors don't usually look like their characters when not dressed and made up to be them, but when not in costume as Geralt, Cavill legit looks like Superman.

[@courtney1395]

He is the same actor for Superman……

[@AlbertBergen]

@@courtney1395 Whoosh!

[@peaChes_s]

He was meant to be superman ♥

[@hesusdanu170]

maby not any more now another play the witcher, sad none of them leave and show there respect , after know there go "f" a franchise............ he was only fighter to keep close to orginal

[@Nthirank]

Henry IS superman DOT!!!!💜🇲🇾

[@angelaholmes8888]

I definitely appreciate henry for going to such extreme to get his body in shape for the show 🌟

[@missmimi6817]

He's amazing

[@Skully_98]

Yennefers purple eyes look so much better than people’s contacts. CGI is probably the way to go tbh

[@MsIrrealis]

The cgi eyes look 100x better than the contacts. I wish they just used cgi for all the eyes

[@tummytimeCHRIS7]

Normally cgi eyes look terrible IMO but yennefers always look SO good. Perfectly enchanting as they should be

[@elmalim9119]

@@tummytimeCHRIS7 maybe because of anya's real eye color..its pale brown with lighter shade and little tint of gray green in the middle...

[@blinkspacestudio8892]

Contact lenses are no joke they are quite painful if you have crappy cheap ones in. Yennifers character is so amazing in both seasons she is such a joy to watch.

[@geofg66]

Anya 100% does not need a body double! She is incredible

[@curbyx5439]

it was about being comfortable with it. not needing it..

[@Uncle_Pear888]

ye sex woman

[@geofg66]

@@curbyx5439 Sry, I understand and agreed, it's important that a person is comfortable in doing so. I should have addressed that also.

[@martinam7806]

I wouldn’t use body double as Yen either. I mean - look at Henry

[@mostneuter]

and then you get remembered that there's an army of technicians watching right in front of you

[@AbhishekKumar-bl3pe]

@@mostneuter 😂

[@bonnielass3975]

Right! I'm not passing up that opportunity for anything. Body double ain't getting All the glory when I've done all the work. 😂

[@pudletwoshoes5880]

Yup!!!

[@mariaginasonia]

@@mostneuter 🤣🤣🤣

[@JohnSmith-kn9iy]

Henry is just too committed, you gotta love it but it's too scary 😭

[@bode260]

I think I can speak for us all when I say We thank u Anya for not using a body double..

[@burnswhenipvp1337]

I support this message

[@expensivemagic4754]

Fantastic video! Thank for making it!!

[@burnswhenipvp1337]

Only 24 hours to prep for the world's favorite bard. Imma try n quote him from season 2. They ask him, what are you gonna do. And he says " I never really know, that's why I'm so good at it" 😂

[@patraic5241]

I wonder when Freya realized that Ciri was going to end up a complete bad ass.

[@kennethgoldsmith3851]

This show is amazing - all actors are great

[@rmdc2782]

The most dynamic characters here are Yen and Geralt.

[@tummytimeCHRIS7]

Agreed. I’m hoping Ciri gets a really sweet character arc later because she is so awesome in the books and GOD TIER in witcher 3.

[@macbitz]

Great admiration for these actors although I am aware they *choose* to endure these things and get rewarded handsomely for it.

[@denijane89]

Anya didn't want a body double, rofl! WHO would want a body double when filming hot scenes with Henry Cavil? Are you crazy?

[@just_alex69]

Exactly 😂😅

[@ghostly.creature]

Tbh I would have preferred the CGI instead of the eye contacts, they were so fake & distracting to look at throughout the show, set aside Ciri's eyes are supposed to be green, not light gray. I wasn't a huge fan of Henry Cavill before the show, but I really respect & appreciate all the work he's put into it & the fact he's a true fan of the books - it really does show and it ended up being one of the best things about the show.

[@KayonLeague]

seeing what they did to eskel was physically painfull

[@queenmimi2020]

ofcaurse she doesn't want a body double I would rehearse alot too😂😂

[@sharmi9891]

Take 25😂❤

[@dolliewigs2415]

I totally understand for the lenses, i had the same thing and it was really hard, my eyes was like i had sand on it.

[@faceoff_theyear]

Henry made this show his own and suffered a hamstring injury, extreme fasting, training, risking his hairs and eyes and this is what they repayed him with replacing with Liam (who is no where close to Henry as per Geralt 's personality). The show will rot in hell without him

[@Tovii2022]

Contacts are rough.

[@annalal3494]

She knew damn well she didn't wanna use abody double because she wanted the white wolf roar

[@andreicordea7]

lmao

[@verenamenzel4701]

yeah, she had nothing to hide, she has a stunning body and she wore her nudity with pride. For me its a sign of her high quality as actress.-besides her brilliant performance anyway!!

[@gangsta891]

when siri is dressed as a boy to play with the peasents she just looks like a little ricky hatton

[@VivaLaDnDLogs]

Wait, Ciri's actress was 18 in season 1?! She really does have elf blood....

[@McRizzle]

?

[@VivaLaDnDLogs]

@@McRizzle Looks so young.

[@sandra969]

Henry is amazing in Witcher amazing

[@TCWRebelsResistanceWords]

Just got into The Witcher. I could tell there were A LOT of extreme makeup techniques and prosthetics going into these characters, but NOT THIS EXTREME!!! DAMN!!!! TALK ABOUT GOING THE EXTRA MILE!!!

[@OSSAchannel]

Most TV shows have a lot of behind-the-scenes work that the viewer can't appreciate 👀 It is really impressive to see all the effort that goes into producing these films 🤩 That's why we love to bring these videos that are very interesting for the audience. 🤗💜

[@TCWRebelsResistanceWords]

@@OSSAchannel and I appreciate these videos so very much! When it comes to my favorite franchises, I’m one of those people who likes to know everything about everything; like how this was done and how that was made, etc. And since this is a Netflix exclusive series and can’t be purchased on Blu-Ray, you can only see these bonus material mainly online.

[@bubblechaz]

oh Henry, be careful.

[@GabrielsGalaxy]

Awesome

[@mariejo7408]

Henry Cavill is just the Best Actor. He is such a beautiful Person He deserved more Respekt and fame 💘💝💙

[@kin4386]

Ayo Joey heard the LittleV cover of Toss a Coin? That's awesome.

[@Boxofcare666]

Contacts make people look like they have a lazy eye, so im surprised cgi eyes arent being done more often

[@vt3039]

It's super expensive to recolor all the shots in post-production. That's probably why they avoid it.

[@jacqualynwilloughby8133]

Oh By The Way...Those Who Do Know How To Read An "X-Ray" Would Have Instantly Noticed This Wasn't "His" (Cavill's)....It Had 6/6/95....Henry Is 5/5/83....Plus They Were Pointing Out The Knee Cap....Henry's Was A "Ham-String Tear"....Hmmmmm.

[@vt3039]

Literally the first thing I noticed, lol

[@Neptune7133]

@DanVasc they gave you a shout out at the end bro!

[@aaron_r6611]

I'm interested about that death metal cover of toss a coin

[@wendyschlagwein5824]

Probably dan vask. If i am writing it correct. He did ybe new song as well. He is great.

[@shenlun]

Can someone please link the death metal version of toss a coin to your witcher please.

[@hanzz9083]

warhammer 40k role: "huehuheuheu...u call that pain Henry?"

[@tindepapp]

Surprisingly I love the Witcher. Even that I hate the new movies of 21 st century. I respect greatly the actors for taking their roll ceriosly. I enjoyed every minute of it. I just hope the serial won't be ruined by milking money. I loved John Wick , the first two , but they ruined it.

[@recless8667]

Violet Orlandi has the best cover of Toss a Coin that's been released so far, bar none. It's better than the original by far.

[@eugeneparis]

clean your hands before you put in your contacts and clean the contacts. how does volcanic ash get behind contacts?

[@raettchen1988]

I don't get why Ciri is wearing contacts. She has super blue eyes and ciri in the books doesn't even have blue eyes. I found her super creepy with them

[@RoseBlackRocks]

She's a magical being. All the magical beings have weird looking eyes

[@let_me_treasure_you]

I thought they were green...are they not green...

[@smittysmeee]

Ciri's bleached eyebrows in season 1 added to her mysterious magical background. I was sad they didn't keep them. But I guess it didn't matter since they decided to tank the show.

[@whiterock1865]

Well hopefully he'll learn from Brendan Fraser and not injure himself into an early retirement...

[@pudletwoshoes5880]

Oh dear. Is that what happened to him? I like him

[@lp3960]

She was only 22? Wow

[@claudiamacias74]

Imagínate si yen se sentía así agarro confianza con Henry y ahora otro que horror a de ser difícil para ella

[@millidanilli]

anybody has idea which death metal cover of Toss a Coin... he might be refering to?

[@snakebolt2459]

He should just use a stunt double

[@luzineterodrigues7479]

😁💯💯

[@jwilko2126]

Little did he know that eating no carbs has a diuretic effect and makes you look shredded.

[@bernabeagacita3502]

If liam can copy the huskiness and roughness of Henry's voice w/c is sexy then gooo for season 4.. ps:been using my husbands account 😁

[@edmariequinones6017]

I watched the series only because of him. He's so damn hot😍🤩

[@oranski3299]

Who? Joey Batey, right? 😁

[@pudletwoshoes5880]

Me too!!!!

[@axelhopfinger533]

Yeah, it's definitely physically painful to watch the horrible miscast sorceresses. Also the horrible contact lenses.

[@tummytimeCHRIS7]

I was really sad we didn’t get flame red headed triss. The show version has a completely different personality from the books and game versions as well. But I did learn to like the show triss, but only after I started thinking of her as a separate character all together who just happens to be named triss.

[@akarth5600]

It’s a pity after this much hard work and fed put into geralt’s by Henry - he is leaving the show half way. He had features naturally that suited that character . Hope the creators n Liam Hemsworth do justice to the character built with so much hardwork

[@tigerbalm666]

I wear contact s for 12 hours...big deal.

[@Kleineganz]

Are those regular contacts or colored ones? Those special colored ones can damage the eyes if worn too long.

[@Viv8ldi]

She was 22? Looking 31 at least

[@venoim.]

yen passt einfach garnicht zur yen im Spiel

[@Kleineganz]

They aren't trying to recreate the game. They are using the books as inspiration for this series and this is their interpretation of the books. The games were their own interpretation.

[@JohnAIDoe]

Look at what men have to go through to get the scene right. Women complain about nude scene?

[@JR-kv6ez]

Worst casting choice for Yennifer possible.

[@tummytimeCHRIS7]

If you go off her game appearance maybe. But according to the books her appearance is noted as not too remarkable (long nose, slightly asymmetrical features) but her charisma makes everyone lust for her. But Anya is gorgeous in my opinion. The big eyes are the most important character feature anyway.

[@JR-kv6ez]

@@tummytimeCHRIS7 She looks busted to me lol.

[@warmsnow]

I think she was incredible in her own way just amazing. Especially the psychological side of her character

[@JR-kv6ez]

@@warmsnow Good actress for sure. Just not Yennifer.

[@warmsnow]

@@JR-kv6ez I didn't read em books so for me it seemed perfectly fine. 🤭
