He was the perfect actor for the job i can’t believe how the producers shot themselves in the foot like that.

Didn't he turn it down in preference for what he assumed was the next Superman gig, only to have that cancelled on him? An unfortunate series of events, or so it is theorised anyway

some of the writers were not or actively disliked the books and games (even actively mocking the source material.)

Imagine loving a series, getting the chance to do a high-budget TV show, and these are the people behind the script. I'd leave too.

They're the same kind of people who made "Picard" with the announcement, "This ain't your daddy's Picard!"

THAT IS WHAT WE WANT. THAT IS WHY WE LIKE HIM.

"Let's take this very successful character/IP, strip away everything people liked, insert depth less, one sided, middle school chatgpt quality characters and plot and then blame the viewers when if flops" seems to be the current procedure.

One of the worst showrunner choices ever

Ask his wife. I think we know the answer and it is the same answer as Ryan Reynolds if he was asked about taking the Deadpool costume home.

His wife prepares the unicorn every night.

I wonder if he bought her lilac & gooseberry smelling perfume

His wife is stunning as well. Must be one of the best looking couples in showbiz.

I assure you he did.

I know he is a gamer and played The Witcher 3 extensively. I think he must have played that game in full costume at least once, like some kind of video game / tv / book / real life inception.
