Henry Cavill adapted well for his role on The Witcher — possibly too well, according to the show’s costume designer. The actor spent a lot of time getting in shape for the role, and the outcomes were impressive muscles that “wore down the leather” of his armour. Social media is still staggering from this behind-the-scenes fact.
Cavill’s Role

Cavill plays Geralt of Rivia in The Witcher. A magically modified warrior, Geralt is a part of a reclusive faith of magic-using fighters who were created with the sole task of killing monsters throughout the continent. He had to be strong, and as the precise face of Superman, Cavill was planned to meet that condition.
On the show, Geralt dresses in studded leather armour with big shoulder plates with many belts and straps and coinciding panels. The effect is often to camouflage Cavill’s hard-earned muscles. Seemingly, the muscles weren’t having that. Fans had favorable responses for this little tiny portion, some of which ranged into the unambiguous. Many acknowledged with suggestions like: “then stopping putting clothes on him” on Twitter, and the concurrence was strong.
The Armor
A few knowledgeable people even interfere in with beneficial tips about paying attention to leather and ensuring it fits appropriately while ruminating that his armour was too cosy since producers would have desired to show off Cavill’s physique.
Cavill has been anxious about this new role from the start and has discussed his process of training widely, with an eye headed for the stunts that he would be taking on by himself wherever possible. The actor even carries a real, heavy sword in the show, meaning ever take in a combat scene took a piece out of him.
