Dave Bautista Cast as Kratos in 'God of War' Series, Replacing Ryan Hurst

Action star Dave Bautista has been cast as Kratos in Prime Video's God of War TV series, replacing the original actor Ryan Hurst. Bautista's role comes after Hurst suffered a torn bicep during a stunt in late June, causing production delays until 2027. Bautista, known for his professional wrestling career, will play the titular god of war, embarking on a journey to raise his son Atreus while battling Norse gods.

The series, adapted from the PlayStation video game, will focus on the last two games in the franchise, with Bautista and Atreus exploring themes of fatherhood and redemption.
