Alan Ritchson in talks to take over big-guy role in Helldivers after Jason Momoa exit
Justin Lin's video game adaptation is expected to hit theaters on November 10, 2027.
Alan Ritchson, known for his roles in TV and film, is now being considered for a big-guy role in the upcoming movie adaptation of the video game series Helldivers. This comes after Jason Momoa, who was originally attached to the project, exited due to "creative differences," as reported by The Hollywood Reporter. The source material highlights Ritchson's extensive filmography, which includes notable films such as Fast X, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, Motor City, and Angel Studios' Runner.
With Momoa occupied with other projects like Street Fighter and Minecraft, Ritchson seems like the ideal candidate to step into the massive role of the leading shock trooper fighting aliens on Super Earth.
