Summary
Dave Bautista has been cast as Kratos in Prime Video's God of War series after Ryan Hurst exited the lead role because of an injury.
Instagram confirmation from Bautista ended weeks of speculation, and Deadline reported production will restart from scratch when filming begins later this year.
The series is set to follow the 2018 game reboot, with Kratos and son Atreus traveling to spread his wife's ashes against a Norse mythology backdrop.
God of War has been one of Sony's biggest franchises since its 2005 PlayStation 2 debut, while Bautista brings marquee credits from Marvel's Drax films, Dune and Glass Onion.
