Liam Hemsworth: New Chapter with Engagement and The Witcher Role

Personal Milestone: Engagement to Gabriella Brooks

Australian actor Liam Hemsworth has exciting news to share with fans. The 35-year-old revealed he’s “incredibly excited” about taking the next step in his relationship with model Gabriella Brooks, noting that he popped the question “a few months ago.” The Hunger Games actor and Gabriella Brooks recently got engaged after six years of dating. The couple, who began their relationship in 2019, have largely kept their personal lives private, though they occasionally share glimpses of their romance on social media.

Taking on The Witcher: A Major Career Move

Professionally, Hemsworth has taken on one of his most challenging roles yet. The Witcher has returned for Season 4, introducing Liam Hemsworth as Geralt of Rivia, and Laurence Fishburne joining the Continent as Regis — a centuries-old barber-surgeon who also happens to be a vampire. The transition from Henry Cavill wasn’t without its challenges. Hemsworth stopped using social media for “most of last year” after Netflix announced he was taking over the role of Geralt from fan favorite Henry Cavill. “There was quite a bit of noise and I had to put that aside. It started to become a distraction,” Hemsworth said about the fan reaction to his casting.

The Witcher’s Success and Critical Reception

The Liam Hemsworth-led Season 4 of The Witcher has received mixed reviews, but its viewership numbers are telling a different story. The eight-part season was released in one go, a week back, marking Hemsworth’s debut. Despite the divided reception, the series has achieved notable success on streaming platforms. The series has an interesting Rotten Tomatoes score as well: a 58 percent from the critics and a way lower 19 percent from the fans, which clearly shows a divide between opinions.

Looking Ahead: What’s Next for Hemsworth

For fans and followers, Hemsworth’s journey represents an exciting new chapter both personally and professionally. “I think if I wasn’t a fan myself, if I didn’t care about it, I wouldn’t have come on board,” Hemsworth told Radio Times. His dedication to the role demonstrates his commitment to honouring the character whilst bringing his own interpretation to Geralt. The fifth season will also mark the final season of the long-running series. It was announced that seasons 4 and 5 were shot back-to-back, with the latter now being in the post-production stage. As Hemsworth embarks on married life and concludes his tenure as The Witcher, audiences worldwide will be watching closely to see how both stories unfold.
