We know Cavill wanted to do a Witcher show, we know the writer's changed things significantly, and Cavill left the show. A writer that left was the one who brought up the other writer's mocking the source material, so it wasn't only Cavill that seemed to have an issue. Then there are the fans, who also did not appreciate the changes.
Why try to put the blame on one actor for being stubborn when the situation is the commonly seen Hollywood adaptation leaves out important details from the source?
I did not put the blame on him. I said we don’t know what happened.
Since he has articulated the parts he likes about the Witcher that weren't included, and fans who agreed with him complained about the same parts being left out, it is pretty safe to assume he wanted to keep the important bits.
Jumping the gun to saying he was stubborn is blaming him. Is wanting to make a show based on the source material being stubborn, or just being dedicated to the source material?
Once again, I did not blame him. I did not say he was stubborn. I’m saying it’s totally possible he was, just like it’s possible he was totally (or largely even) in the right and the parents for TW are just stubborn hacks who need to hear him out. But again, none of us actually know what was going on. Snippets we’ve gleaned from media is not sufficient.
