It's been a long two years since The Witcher's second season ended in 2021, and as a fan, I'm excited and sad for the premiere of the first part of season three on June 29. Of course, I'm eager to sink into my couch for the show, but season three's arrival also means this is the last we'll see of Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia with his white half-up ponytail. Thankfully, he's bringing some of Geralt's flair into the real world with some subtle silver streaks in his hair and beard.
Silver lining for fans everywhere.
On June 28, Cavill appeared at The Witcher UK premiere in an all-black suit and his salt-and-pepper hair, which was slicked back into silky waves. You can peep the growing greys at his sideburns and temples; from a side angle, you can see those silver pieces much clearer. His hair curled up right at the nape of his neck. I'm guessing that if he parted his hair down the middle, the front pieces would be the length of curtain bangs (aka this is pretty long hair for Cavill to be sporting sans wig).
Alongside a potential silver fox phase, he's embracing longer hair overall, it seems. The last time he showed his hair on Instagram was in October 2022 while he was in the midst of the Enola Holmes 2 press tour. Though his 2022 facial hair looked nearly identical to his current moustache and beard, the sides of his hair were visibly shorter. The ends of the wavy tendrils on his forehead ends fell right above his eyebrows.
While I am mourning the upcoming end of Henry Cavill as Geralt with (dirty), wavy, white hair, I gladly welcome a salt-and-pepper era from him.
