Henry Cavill has been playing one of the most iconic comic book characters ever since 2013's Man of Steel, and now he's adding to his geek cred by taking on the mantle of a gaming's most recognisable anti-heroes of the last few years.

 

Yup, the Justice League and Mission: Impossible actor is going to be playing Geralt of Rivia in Netflix's TV adaptation of The Witcher, the popular fantasy saga book series from Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski that was later turned into a popular game series.

 

Set in a fantasy world, The Witcher follows the adventures of Geralt, a contracted hunter of foul beasties.

 

The Netflix synopsis makes it clear the series will be based on the books, describing it as "an epic tale of fate and family".
