The Witcher Movie: 10 Actors Who Could Play Geralt Of Rivia

4. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau

Better known to everyone as Ser Jaime Lannister, Coster-Waldau has garnered a zealous following of fans as Game of Thrones progressed, evolving from an arrogant, over-entitled brat to one of the series' most intriguing characters. In the context of playing Geralt, Coster-Waldau's most noteworthy role is of course Game of Thrones, and you get the feeling that as the show enters its sixth season, that we're going to see an ever-darker and more jaded side to his performance as Jaime. He's also excellent in the western movie Blackthorn, where he shows the ruggedness required for the role. Those narrow, intense eyes and sturdy wide jawline are a spitting image of Geralt, and he could channel a bit of that Jaime arrogance for the part too, given that Geralt is prone to the odd bit of sardonic humour himself.
