It's finally happening: whether you've been waiting for the follow-up to Netflix's The Witcher or not, it's coming, and production is well underway. Without revealing any specific details, Netflix has already started actively promoting the upcoming fourth season.
Recently, the streaming service released a video of a table read that featured the first appearance of none other than the new Geralt of Rivia, Liam Hemsworth, who replaced Henry Cavill.
While many fans don't need lore-friendly explanations for the recasting, the writers seem to be banking on it, but it remains a mystery how exactly it will be accomplished. However, the new actors present at the table read may explain the transition from Cavill to Hemsworth.

This piece contains spoilers for Enola Holmes 2.
The first official case for young Enola Holmes (Millie Bobby Brown) starts with a missing girl: factory worker named Sarah Chapman (Hannah Dodd). But as Enola tugs at all the loose threads, she discovers mounting evidence—a missing page from the factory books, a suspicious surge of typhus, a scandalous romance—that draws the attention of the factory’s owners, Scotland Yard, and even her brother Sherlock (Henry Cavill). It all culminates in Sarah, her sister Bessie (Serrana Su-Ling Bliss), and the other factory girls going on strike—a real-life event which grounded the movie’s events in a sense of historical context.
The Matchgirls’ strike of 1888 changed the working conditions at the Bryant & May match factory, but it was not the first of its kind. The matchgirls went on strike several times between the 1870s to 1880s, always in an attempt to...

Tis she! Enola Holmes (Millie Bobby Brown), the whip-smart, socially awkward, fisticuffs-brandishing, disguise-swapping girl detective that Netflix introduced in a charming if overstuffed origin story in 2020. But with all the credit for solving that movie’s mystery going to her more established older brother, Sherlock (Henry Cavill), Enola’s sophomore outing in Enola Holmes 2 serves as something of a second debut: investigating a crime that no one else wants, the disappearance of a factory girl. As she tugs at loose threads, Enola unravels a larger conspiracy involving the upper and lower classes, typhus and the Treasury, and even a familiar nemesis of her brother’s. Despite Sherlock Holmes cautioning her against making the case about herself, it’s Enola’s personal investment—and especially her stumbles along the way—that make this second adventure so compelling.

There were a number of reasons the employees at the Bryant & May match factory wanted to strike in 1888: They were fined for trivial offenses, berated for small errors and paid abysmally for hours of grueling labor. But above all, their owners were killing them. A change in production methods — switching from red phosphorus to white — increased the company’s profit and poisoned the match factory employees. The women and girls developed phosphorus necrosis, a disease that caused engorged abscesses in the mouth and fatal brain damage.
Enola Holmes, the protagonist of the quick-witted and fanciful eponymous YA book series, doesn’t know all of this when she agrees to a missing person case at the beginning of Netflix’s Enola Holmes 2. Our young detective (played by the exceptional Millie Bobby Brown) is just itching to solve a mystery. Her attempts to start...
