Deadline reportedearlier this yearthat Amazon was in negotiations for aGod of Waradaptation, and now it looks like that’s bearing out. TheGod of Warseries will have Rafe Judkins fromThe Wheel of Timeon as showrunner, with Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby writing.
ViaDeadline’s writeup on the news, it sounds like the series will follow Kratos after he’s left the Greek pantheon behind and ventured to Midgard. PlayStation Productions will be teaming up with Amazon Prime Video to adapt the series, adding to the growing list of Sony’s adaptations.
Outside of streaming,God of Warhasn’t been doing too shabby in the video game department either. The recently releasedRagnarokjust picked up a decent number of trophies atThe Game Awards 2022, and it seems like the follow-up to 2018’sGod of Warhas been ahighlight of the yearfor Sony.
