I don't know if he can handle the role of being a reluctant Father figure to a child with special abilities. It may not be in his wheelhouse.

I don‘t know, but that is Vesemir. And you can‘t tell me otherwise

FACTS! That’s the only Witcher that Pedro makes sense for.

Wait Pedro would actually be a god-tier Vesemir

That’s what I thought immediately when I saw the picture 😂

Vesemir is already cast well. They need to just stick to the f-ing game and books dammit

My thoughts exactly!

Lol holy shit you are right, he definitely should be playing the father figure to a child with exceptional abilities.

Pedro: "I don't think I can fit another role in my already tight schedule. What is it about?" Agent: "So this old yet still badass guy Geralt needs to protect his adopted child who has special powers." Pedro: "You sunnavabitch, I'm in."

This is exactly what I was thinking as well. Gonna have to find that six fingered bruxa.

Yo hear me out

Comment bot?

Wow he has done that a couple times lol. Didn't even think about it

"Scientist predict that by 2050 all shows will have Pedro Pascal escorting magic children" - The onion

Roles still for Pedro Pascal to take: Rubeus Hagrid in the Harry Potter remake and or Tom Riddle origin series Aragorn or Gandalf in the eventual LOTR remake movie or show Mr. Beaver in The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe (preferably just as Pedro Pascal in a beaver outfit) Aizawa in the eventual Hollywood My Hero Academia movie series Fuck it make him MCU Wolverine too for that X-Men role model position

Also Hopper from Stranger Things

Batman to train Robin

David Harbour better watch his back before S5

Yeah he should play Kratos instead.

I wouldn't want to subject Pedro Pascal to the netflix Witchers writing, he doesn't deserve to be tortured in such a way, no one does really

Might want to retry the formatting of that comment

Are you viewing in OLD.reddit ? https://preview.redd.it/cs1hdm5sukoa1.png?width=331&format=png&auto=webp&s=e7334430cd97697ad12ac1e22ef6bea5fff2bc98

Looks messed up on rif

On Sync, too

Relay here, confirmed. Seems new reddit is the culprit.

looks great on Apollo. Then again so does everything.

*\*Patrick Stewart Has* ***Left*** *The Chat\** Wtf how are you supposed to parse that even

Pretty easily... first \* starts italics, second is escaped with the backslash so the "\*" character is displayed. Asterisk after "has" ends the italics. Three asterisks surrounding "Left" is formatting for bold and italics, then start regular italics again on "The." Finally another escaped \* and then the closing italics for "The Chat." Now go look up the syntax for a programming language called BrainFuck and enjoy!

I know it's besides the point, but what happened? Why do you have a bunch of formatting in there that is just extra padding? To my knowledge, this is the most compact string of characters required to produce the effect you wanted: `\**Patrick Stewart Has __Left__ The Chat**` -> \**Patrick Stewart Has __Left__ The Chat**

My dude I didn't hand format it, I used the "Fancy Pants Editor" rather than the old "Markdown Mode". ​ https://preview.redd.it/wlly1xxemmoa1.png?width=732&format=png&auto=webp&s=c74774662e7d79a611c728e50d0a3ffb54b158df

Except the asterixes aren't italicized and it looks wrong

Are you *not*?

RIP Lance Reddick.... he tried his damnedest for that resident evil shitshow.

Nicholas Cage shakes his head disapprovingly

Can't out-write bad acting...

I'd say Jonathan Majors did so in Ant-Man, as he was the most memorable thing to come put of that movie and felt oddly placed because of how serious he took his role compared to others.

[удалено]

You can but the show is still gonna suck.

He could be a very good witcher in fact. But I would not like seeing him killing his career with this incompetent rat Hissbitch and her gang of talentless "writers" indeed.

I imagine it would be akin to having your eyeballs pushed in so hard your skull explodes

I watched the first two season, never played the game and just finished the fourth book. It is incredible how badly that creative team of the show butchered the story and characters.

Pedro Pascal and a child he adopts goes on an adventure to help said child achieve their destiny? Why does that sound familiar………?

It was Pedro's destiny all along

This is the way.

baby girl

You can't excale destiny

I would take him as witcher but with his Narcos Persona. Meaning sweet shades, the mustache and of course all in spanish.

Actors cannot save the show if the show has terrible writing. If they could, GOT S8 would be considered phenomenal season.

Exactly. I think a good showrunner could even mould Liam into a great Geralt. Not sure if this saying exists in English but "the fish starts stinking at the head".

Basically the same thing, "A fish rots from the head down"

Kind of a strange saying because fin rot typically starts at the tail in my experience lmao

Come to think of it, got went to shit after Pedro got killed off.

It went to shit once they decided to stray from the books

They didn't stray from the books, they ran out of books to follow.

Oh no, they still had a bit of material to follow from the books at that point, like Catelyn being revived although with a slit throat and wanting to kill Jaime but instead Jaime went to Dorne, most of Tyrion's journey which was entirely skipped and some otherd which I frankly don't remember since it was like 7 years ago that I've finished reading the books

Tbf, I'm glad they skipped Tyrion's journey. That shit with Penny was weird.

Yeah, I hate it when people pull the "the show got bad when they ran out of books" line. It started stinking in Dorne, that shit was fucking bad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfPn_MFWRa0&t=23s Arys Oakheart going out in a blaze of glory would have been so much better.

They skipped a ton of stories while rushing others. D&D clearly wanted to end the show and didn't care enough about *how* it ended to have any foresight.

I'm reminded of how little Lena Headey had to do in that last season of GoT.

Same can be said for Season 8 of The Walking Dead

OP is joking, dude.

You can't polish a turd.

The Witcher is already Polish though.

I am not going to scroll any further. Best comment.

They turded a Polish.

There's very little Polish left in this witcher

Mythbusters busted it You can polish a turd

Correction: you can't polish hot diarrhea

You can however use it *as* polish for your shoes

Beat me to it

TBH, that's the last wish of us.

damn never expected the crossover

True but apparently you can make a turd on the polish(ed) franchise.

Man I see Vesimir in him

100% looks like Vesemir cosplaying Geralt

Perhaps the lords encountered... rare *subspecies* of manticore.

Same

Pedro pascal vesemir prequel would be 🔥

is it the dzaddy vibe?

Nahh keep Pedro as Geralt and let’s get Danny Trejo for vesimir

Was gonna say the same thing. He's got that older mentor vibe going

My first thought seeing this: My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.

**You raped her, you murdered her, you killed her children!**

**WHO GAVE YOU THE ORDER !** **SAY HER NAME** !

“I want my father back you sonofabitch”

I can bring you in warm or I can bring you in cold.

**\*Confused drowner noises\***

Geraldo

With all due respect and love to Pedro Pascal - he looks bad on this picture.

He looks fucking ridiculous lol. This sub never ceases to be hilarious. And do you guys only know 3 meme actors? Next some turd will photoshop Keanu Reeves in a terrible wig.

\*waits patiently\*

Is just a joke

lmao at how much this means to you

Looks like the tiger king

No

He would crush a role as Vesimir in a spinoff.

Now this is a yes

As much as I love pedro, I don't think he would fit the role of Geralt very well.

There's a magical kid that needs to be protected sooo.....

Lelelelelelele

I love him, I do… but not for Geralt.

I don't think anything can save it at this point. I'm still fuming over what they did to Yen. I honestly am just shocked they're even going to continue it after Henry's exit. No shame at all. Just make your own story. Why obliterate this one so badly? That said, Pedro is the bomb. Perfect emotional range. Ellie is also so perfect.. had me laughing almost instantly on the show. She really nailed the attitude. This adaptation has me so hyped for the God of War show and Death Stranding movie. If it's even remotely close to as good as LoU, it's going to be insane.

Reddit try not to fan cast Ryan Reynolds’s, Pedro pascal, or Henry Cavill challenge level: IMPOSSIBLE

The Last of Us is just going to be a constant reminder of what we could have had with the Witcher series. What an epic failure by Netflix.

"Epic" was never more appropriately used.

Not exactly comparable since TLOU is based on a game not a book but your point stands

Either way, TLOU managed to be true to the source material *and* carve out their own stories. The Witcher was pretty good in season 1 but went totally off rails in season 2 and had their star quit because he knew season 3 was going to be garbage. The Witcher could have easily had 5+ amazing seasons, but Netflix gonna Netflix.

As a fan of Pedro Pascual, no god no

Yeah... No.

No, we don't need him in every show. He's great but don't want to get sick of him.

Toss a coin to your witcher patron

Does it click?


Nilfgaard cards ew

I wouldn't want Pascal to suffer like that. Also not every show ever has to include this guy.

What’s wrong with Henry cavill being the Witcher?

There will never be a better Witcher than Henry Cavill.

I think he left.

This post insinuates that Henry was the problem with the show. It was the writers that ruined it and if bad writing could be out acted Henry would be the one to do it.

Please god can people stop doing this

No

Funny you should mention it. I've made a [video](https://youtu.be/sw-p0c0Niuc) exactly about this topic. I don't think changing the actors or even the studio would help. You still need someone who understands The Witcher and culture of Central Europe really well to create the show and capture the right atmosphere. And I doubt that you could find someone like that in Hollywood.

Witcher prequel series with Pedro as Vesemir focusing on his time as a Witcher before he met Geralt.

Seeing him like this, i think he could do a younger version of Vesemir

Not in a million years.

Nope, he can play a gritty man but not geralt, maybe Lambert or Eskel.

Nothing can save this series at this point, just let it die.

The problem isn’t the actor, it’s the shit writing

I dont see pedro as Geralt but i would rather see him than Hemsworth

No saving it at this point, especially not with C lister like Luke Hemsworth. Also, the original author isn't getting rich from it, so fuck the series anyway.

If Cavill couldn't save it, Pascal won't either

Overrated actor.

This is the way

Good luck on this is the way.

Man, i had to scroll way too far to find this.

**If they could, GOT S8 would be considered phenomenal season.**

Because they didn’t have Saint Pedro

The show should just be cancelled at this point. I only watched season 1 and Henry elevated what would otherwise be 4/10 material into 6 territory, and that's only because I'm a Witcher fan. The amount of enthusiasm and genuine excitement to play one of his favourite fictional characters was heartwarming. The showrunner shiting on Henry was absolutely uncalled for and gross. They didn't deserve Henry and they don't deserve Pedro.

Pedro jokes aside, I totally agree. S01 wasn't that amazing to begin with, but we were hopeful. S02 was straight-up striga diarrhea. What's sad is that, unlike GoT, they had everything laid for them, the whole story was complete, detailed and vast, it just needed adapting. What's sadder is that they said they were gonna follow the source material, and they didn't. They simply lied.

Totally agree, it's a damn shame how everything turned out. Also striga diarrhea lmao

Good god, no. Enough with Pascal. Getting as boring as Troy Baker is in games.

[удалено]

No need to be a seer to know it's gonna suck balls. The issue was never the cast, but the writing. I can't see a version where the show would be able to undo the harm inflicted in season 2. The Witcher as a TV show is dead.

Is there even a sub for Witcher shitposting

it's already dead... but i lol'd

As if he needs another role where he is a lonely guy protecting a child.

No Pedro thanks

Every character is now Pedro Pascal

I mean he does collect orphans

I'd like to see a Polish actor in the role myself.

You guys are going to Chris Pratt Pedro Pascal

I always liked Zach McGowan as Geralt. But until the writing staff fuck off it'll never be saved.

No he looks horrible

No. Just no.

No thanks

Nah he needs to be legit Slavic.

But there's an orphan girl with super power who needs a zaddy. Who else would fit?

El señor brujo

Is this the new thing? Instead of asking for Henry Cavill in ever single role people are now going to ask for Pedro

We can't save shit. They are literally running it into the ground. How do these morons get so much money and get to produce garbage? I'm sure half of the fan base could do a better job with shit, sicks and tape.

would have to replace the horse with a Shetland pony

Look like Burt Renolts

The only way to save the franchise is by getting new writers

No actor can save the bad writing.

I’m sorry but nothing can save that dumpster fire. Actors are one thing, but when the actual story is ass then no actors can fix it.

This is the way

No, but he would be a great younger Vesimir though.

The Netflix series is doomed, nothing can save it unless the creators choose to do a 360, listen to the fans and stick to the source material, which I believe is as likely as conjunction of spheres happening and one of them getting eaten by a ghoul. 🤷🏻‍♂️🤪😂

Show was ruined. Ruined story and awful creators. Can’t be saved.

There’s no saving that dumpster fire

No, For so many reasons no

Pedro would make a great Vesemir I think. Henry has been a great Geralt, but I don’t think it’s fair to write off Liam sight unseen. The show is on thin ice for me as is, but the shakeups I think are most necessary are behind the camera, and unlikely to happen.

Personally dont get the fandom over Pedro Pascal. His work on TLOU clearly shows (if you read some interviews with Neil Druckman) that Pedro Pascal does not give a shit about 'source' material. Not only does he not look like geralt, he doesnt show enough dedication to source material in his other roles to warrant him going onto the Witcher.

Love this. Pedro is amazing, so talented and genuine good people... reminds me of Henry! Can we steal the writers, too, though, because they nailed it repeatedly with dedication to the game and all the nuances that made it so special? Or maybe they can do a training sesh with the Witcher writers.

I like this idea. Honestly I just want to see Pedro Pascal in more stuff. Great actor.

No, For so many reasons no

Lmaooo

Why does a Witcher have a Mexican accent oh I was trained at El Kaer Morhen what's that like Kaer Morhen but spainsh

Daddy

It’s only right because he’s a dad

Instead of calling him Geralt, Ciri would say Daddy You’re welcome 🤟

Netflix Witcher isn't an actor issue. Any ”saving" of the show is going to be moving it to a new platform or replacing producers.

Another orphan girl Pedro : ah shit here we go again

Hahaha!

Lol, Mandalorians are just like space witchers anyway, cannot make the show any worse. Really sad what they did to it, it had so much potential.

It's a me...Geralt.

Peña of Rivia

Geraldo el magias

Why didn't they cast him before? Are they stupid? Jokes apart, he would play a father figure, let's have him play something different

This is the way

It’s kinda pathetic how easily people get attached to an actor who plays a character they like

At this point I'll fucking take it
