6. Henry Cavill's The Witcher Reveal

Not so long ago, Joaquin Phoenix and his Joker origin movie director Todd Phillips released a gimmicked make-up test online revealing the first look at his new Joker. It went down so well that Netflix have clearly decided to go for a similar approach for upcoming show The Witcher, which is set to star outgoing Superman Henry Cavill.

Only, they didn't exactly nail it, partly becauseCavill's Geralt is nowhere near the finished look. They've basically just put a wig on him, told him to look vaguely concerned and then have a swig of booze (or poison perhaps, given his mood).

There are STRONG emo Legolas and Highlander vibes here and that's not really a good thing...

Given how much money Netflix have, you've really got to wonder why their wig budget is clearly so low. It's all a little bit what you ordered from Wish versus what actually arrived.
