Why Henry Cavill Is Leaving The Witcher After Season 3 Given the actor's success with the Netflix show, it's sure to come as a surprise to many to learn that Cavill will be leaving The Witcher after season 3, which is eyeing a mid-2023 premiere date. However, for fans who have been following recent headlines surrounding him, it may prove understandable Cavill can no longer lead the fantasy series as he now makes his way back to the DC Extended Universe as Superman.
Even outside of his Superman return, Cavill has a number of projects on his docket that necessitate his leaving The Witcher after season 3. It was recently announced he would be reuniting with Guy Ritchie for the World War II action movie The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, while also leading the cast for Matthew Vaughn's spy thriller Argylle, which is expected to launch a trilogy, and the long-gestating Highlander reboot from John Wick director Chad Stahelski.
