The Witcher: Shaerrawedd (2023)
Season 3, Episode 1
10/10
Henry Cavill levels up!!!
1 July 2023
Henry Cavill maxes out his sword fighting skills. If you think what he did in season 1 and 2 in terms of choreography and swordfighting was mightily impressive rest assured he hasn't stopped there. Watch the sequence where Geralt enters the fight at Shaerrawedd (00:46 min), The whole sequence is spectacular, camera, choreography, skill level and all. But there is one moment when he rotates his sword using the crossguard to switch to an opponent to his left, absolutely amazeballs, marvel to behold, blink and you'll miss it. I watched it again and again, in slowmo even, and still couldn't believe it, can't fathom how much practice and how many takes it must have taken to pull this off so perfectly in such a long shot, 30 sec no camera cuts multiple opponents sword fight. Breathtakingly spectacular for anyone who has had even cursory experience with swordfighting.
