As Steven S. DeKnight told Comicbook.com, there hasn’t been a truly successful or great video game movie yet, and making one work is a very tricky process.
For any God of War movie, part of the trick is getting the right person to play Kratos.
Depending on which game or which part of his story you adapt, the character of Kratos doesn’t necessarily require a ton of range.
Still, as with any iconic video game character, casting is key because Kratos needs to be a magnetic and charismatic figure that really pops onscreen and draws you into his story.
