And, in fact, it wouldn’t be the World Cup and not using a wholesome dose of upsets, with Japan edging out Germany and match heavyweight Belgium having struggled in opposition to Canada earlier than dropping to Morocco, however one upset, particularly, has precipitated a stir within the realm of The Witcher.
Certainly, after Denmark’s 1-0 loss to a weaker-on-paper Australian facet, photographs of Mads Mikkelsen — a homegrown Dane and as soon as a hopeful fancast for the position of Geralt following Henry Cavill‘s departure from The Witcher — sporting an extremely related caption have began resurfacing on-line.
It’s the newest prank from the cosmic presence of irony, as Liam Hemsworth, the person who finally succeeded Cavill for Geralt’s mantle, is Australian, which maybe pours salt-infused Vegemite on this explicit wound.
They are saying that life imitates artwork, and that artwork imitates life. Now, it seems to be like sports activities has a declare to imitating each, so The Witcher can maintain its head excessive, being the primary bearer of the life-imitates-art-imitates-sports nuance. A distinction that, regardless of the way you swing it, ends poorly for Mikkelsen.
