Joe Budden as Kratos in Amazon Prime’s live-action adaptation of the popular video game franchise? Someone pitched the idea on X, formerly Twitter, and the internet did what it does best: make jokes.
Word on the street is that Amazon Prime’s God of War is set to begin filming in March 2026, but it still hasn’t chosen an actor to take on the role of Kratos, everyone’s favorite god slayer in the show.
There have been a bunch of names thrown out there, according to television insider John Campea: Winston Duke, Joe Manganiello, the voice of Kratos in the reboots, Christopher Judge, Manu Bennett, Jason Momoa, Travis Fimmel, Oliver Ritchers, and Dave Bautista are all in the running to play the iconic video game character on the small screen.
