Dave Bautista In Talks to Star in Prime Video’s God of War Show

Prime Video's adaptation of the God of War video games recently faced a setback when lead actor Ryan Hurst (Sons of Anarchy) suffered a bicep injury, forcing him to depart from the role of Kratos. However, the project may now receive a boost in star power, as Dave Bautista (Guardians of the Galaxy, Glass Onion, Blade Runner 2049) is reportedly in discussions to join the cast.

Bautista has amassed an impressive acting résumé over the past decade, although this would be his first series regular role, aside from his time as a professional wrestler in WWE. Primetime subscribers may recognize him from his appearances in The Wrecking Crew and the My Spy series. The God of War series also features a talented ensemble cast, including Callum Vinson, Teresa Palmer, Max Parker, Ólafur Darri Ólafsson, Mandy Patinkin, and Ed Skrein.

Created by Ronald D. Moore, known for his work on the critically acclaimed Battlestar Galactica, the show promises an exciting new take on the popular video game franchise. God of War: Ragnarok is currently available on PS5 via Amazon.
