Netflix's 'Witcher' Franchise In Crisis As Cavill Exits And Viewership Plummets

The Witcher season 3 is receiving negative reviews and losing viewers, with a 15% drop from season 2 according to data.
Lead actress Anya Chalotra says this season explores Yennefer and Geralt's relationship but Cavill's exit will be hard since he's "family".
Cavill's performance as Geralt and stunt work were highlights, but his departure raises concerns about the show's future without him.
Season 3 began with improvements but creative changes and too much politics have turned off fans and led to declining viewership.
Netflix made mistakes and Cavill's exit, along with little buzz, show the franchise is struggling in season 3.
