Dave Bautista is reportedly set to be cast as Kratos in the upcoming God of War television adaptation, according to a report picked up by GameSpot. The casting would be notable given Bautista's history of publicly campaigning for the role, having long expressed his enthusiasm for playing the vengeful Spartan warrior at the centre of Sony's blockbuster video game franchise.

The God of War series is being developed for television, following the critically acclaimed 2018 game reboot and its sequel, which reimagined the character within Norse mythology alongside his son, Atreus. Details on the report's sourcing, the show's broadcaster or streaming platform, and a timeline for production were not available from the article, as the original page could not be accessed in full.
