God Of War TV Show Cast: All The Actors And The Roles They Play For The Prime Video Show

  

There are dozens of Hollywood adaptations of video games in the works for film and TV. Not all of them are expected to materialize, but one that is definitely going ahead is Prime Video’s God of War TV show.
The series is led by Sons of Anarchy actor Ryan Hurst as Kratos and Callum Vinson as Atreus, with a cast that includes other big names, including Mandy Patinkin. Read on to see all the actors confirmed for the God of War TV show so far, along with what we know about their roles and more.
The God of War TV show, which hails from Battlestar Galactica’s Ronald D. Moore, has already been ordered for two seasons. Frederick E.O. Toye (The Boys, Fallout) is directing the first two episodes. There is no release date yet.
The God of War TV show will follow some of the events of 2018’s God of War and 2022’s God of War Ragnarok, telling the father-son story of Kratos and Atreus.
God of War is one of Sony’s best-known franchises, and while no future games have been announced, it’s expected the series will continue. A live-service God of War game, however, was reportedly canceled last year.
Prime Video is also producing the live-action Tomb Raider TV show starring Sophie Turner. Beyond that, Prime Video is making the Life is Strange TV series, and also runs the popular Fallout TV show.
