Amazon just cast its live-action Kratos, and it’s a familiar voice. Ryan Hurst will portray the Spartan warrior in the upcoming God of War series for Prime Video. Hurst previously voiced the character Thor in the most recent God of War game. The announcement came directly from the streamer’s social media account.
The actor bears a strong physical resemblance to the role, notably matching the character’s iconic beard. His prior performance as Thor suggests an easy transition into the mythic setting. The series will adapt the Norse storyline from the popular PlayStation games. Its exact plot remains unclear, potentially following or diverging from the games’ narrative.
Ronald D. Moore serves as the showrunner for the production. Director Frederick E.O. Toye will helm the initial episodes. Filming for the series is scheduled to commence. Casting for other major roles is currently underway.
