Amazon’s ‘God of War’ Series Adds Ryan Hurst as Kratos

Sony Pictures Television and Amazon MGM Studios have announced that Ryan Hurst will play Kratos in the upcoming God of War series. Hurst is known for his roles as Opie in Sons of Anarchy and Beta in The Walking Dead, and has also appeared in films like Saving Private Ryan and Remember the Titans. He’s set to be in Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey as well. Interestingly, Hurst has previous ties to the God of War universe, having voiced Thor in God of War: Ragnarök (2022). Previously, Terrence C. Carson and, since 2018, Christopher Judge have voiced the character of Kratos.

However, when it came to a final, defining moment, the show seemed hesitant to commit to a clear outcome – and a new Netflix documentary reveals the reason why.

Bungie’s Marathon Could Succeed Where Arc Raiders Failed

Embark Studios built a really impressive world for Arc Raiders, but the story hasn’t lived up to its potential. The missions are fairly uninspired, and while there are a few cutscenes, they don’t do the world justice. Even though the gameplay is fun, I’m hoping for a more compelling reason to get invested and keep playing. That’s where Bungie’s Marathon could help, as Bungie is known for crafting captivating worlds.
