Kratos Recast Will Hurt Prime Video's 'God of War' Series More Than Any Delay

Prime Video's upcoming God of War series faces a bigger hurdle than its delays: the recasting of Kratos. The 2018 game and its sequel Ragnarök won fans with emotionally grounded storytelling about an exiled god raising his son, drawing comparisons to The Last of Us adaptation. Critics argue the recast risks undermining the character's core appeal before the show even airs.
