Variety is reporting that former multi-time champion Dave
Bautista has been cast as Kratos in the Prime Video series God
of War.
The role was previously portrayed by Ryan Hurst, but Hurst got
injured and the character was re-cast, catapulting Bautista in
the leading role of the series.
Hurst tore his bicep while filming a stunt for the show and
the recovery time was too long to halt production, forcing the
studio to go with a different actor instead.
The show will resume filming in October and Amazon has not
officially announced a release date for the live-action series
yet.
