The Witcher's Yennefer Actress Anya Chalotra Opens Up About Online Abuse
You did this, chuds.
>Netflix's Yennefer of Vengerberg described the harassment she faced as "quite intense."

>"I'm not on social media. I stopped," Chalotra told The Guardian. "I haven't been on it for a long time. The first season, for me … there was a lot of negativity. A lot of positive as well, but obviously the negative … This was one of my first jobs. It hit me hard. I learned very quickly that it can all be quite intense."
>Chalotra's experience isn't necessarily unique to her. New Geralt of Rivia, Liam Hemsworth, faced intense harassment as well for taking over as the White Wolf following Henry Cavill's exit. However, what Chalotra faced is indicative of the hate campaign's popular figures--and women more broadly--experience at the hands of dissenters disguised as passionate fans. As showrunner Lauren Schmidt Hissrich recently said, if people don't like The Witcher Season 4 or otherwise for whatever reason, there are other ways to enjoy Sapkowski's world: the books and the games.

No sympathy. All people who assume race swapped roles know what they're getting into. She probably earned more than most professionals will earn in 30 years with those 4 seasons, if she didn't blow her money she'll be ok.

How did she feel about the showrunner saying she was only chosen because Hissrich said "I feel like we need to challenge what people think of as the standard of beauty. And having a woman of color in this role does incredibly powerful things to the people watching" making the argument that only white were seen as beautiful. Yes, this showrunner is THIS out of touch.

Yeah, Unknown 9 Awakening. They assumed it was going to be huge and planned for their own retarded version of the MCU. Already had a book series going, and there were going to be comics and radio play podcasts and a TV show. But then no one gave a single shit because it was bland generic fantasy garbage

The most impressive thing is that the Unknown 9 Awakening book series that was probably read by nine people if that had a larger page count than Lord of the Rings trilogy.

Capital G gaymers shat on her like they shit on everything. Nothing new there.

Her portrayal of Yen was actually one of the few good things about the show, though. The problems stem from the writers, not the actors.

Why do they talk about tv critics like its some sort of totalitarian regime where people are 'disguised' as patriots to subvert tge state?

She was good when she had Cavil to play off of and the writing hadn't gone to complete shit. I liked their interactions in season 1 and a bit in season 2.
She looks nothing like what Yen's described as though, but it still wasn't as bad of a casting as Triss or god forbid Phillipa (that one is the one that made me drop the show entirely)

Not true. She's implied to be hot like all witches but she's not perfect - something that even Geralt notices in the first books, where he sorta looks past her facade and sees the goblina she was before "magical surgery". Namely he points out her long nose.

the actress is alright considering they completely fucked up the casting for the witcher but book/lore wise Yennefer is kinda mid, even Geralt describes her appearance as mid besides some nice looking tits she teases him with when the first meet

Genuinely baffling project. The entire thing stem to stern had zero creativity. It was dripless, sauceless and soulless.
Most anons probably dont even know what we are talking about even though it showed up and several game shows and was marketed by Bandai Namco. It left everyones brains as soon as it entered.

See this is the thing I don't get. Colorswapping is almost always shit but at least keep the casting in line with the intent or reality of the material. Like the whole deal with the coven of bitches is that when they get the wombus removus they also get to completely change their appearance and explicitly be beautiful/attractive to fuck with their perception right?

No offense to the actress here but like, why would you choose that face if that was the case?
