Karlston Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 It’s a voice actor from the games, but not the one you’re thinking. Image: Amazon Amazon has announced the first cast member of its God of War live-action adaptation on Prime Video. Ryan Hurst, known for his work as Opie in Sons of Anarchy and Beta in The Walking Dead, will play the titular God of War, Kratos. Though the casting might come as a bit of a disappointment to the fans hopeful that Christopher Judge, Kratos’ award-winning voice actor in the games, might have been tapped for the role in some fashion, Hurst has familiarity with series. He voiced Thor in God of War: Ragnarok and earned a BAFTA nomination for the performance. Amazon originally announced the God of War series in 2022 in collaboration with PlayStation Productions. It’ll follow the journey of Kratos and his son Atreus outlined in the most recent God of War games and is currently one of several live-action video game adaptations in the works from both Amazon and Sony. The Last of Us (Sony) is currently working toward a third season, a Horizon Zero Dawn (Sony) show is in the works at Netflix, Fallout (Amazon) is currently in the middle of airing its second season, while Tomb Raider (Amazon) has recently announced its principle cast.
