Needless to say, we have a lot of TV adaptations to soon attempt to sit through. I still haven’t brought myself to watch Netflix’s Resident Evil series, and it appears that these shows will just keep on coming. To confirm that God of War is being adapted, the Prime Video Twitter account shared a simple message: “God of War is coming,” alongside a picture of Kratos and Artreus from God of War (2018). However, The Hollywood Reporter has been privy to more details regarding the adaptation. The game is being adapted by Wheel of Time showrunner, Rage Judkins, and The Expanse creators, Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby. Santa Monica Studio’s creative director, Cory Barlog, alongside Yumi Yang, PlayStation Productions’ Qizilbash and Carter Swan, and Vertigo’s Roy Lee will all be working on the adaptation, too. Additionally, Jeff Ketcham of Santa Monica Studios will be the co-executive producer of the show. The description for the show begins with the passing of Kratos’ wife, as he sets on a perilous journey with his estranged son to fulfil his wife’s final wish. “Kratos soon realizes the journey is an epic quest in disguise, one which will test the bonds between father and son, and force Kratos to battle new gods and monsters for the fate of the world.” Are you looking forward to God of War being adapted for your streaming pleasure? More importantly, who do you think should be cast as Kratos?
