Prime Video may be adapting the wildly popular 'God of War' video games into a TV series!
Amazon may be looking for another ride on the video game adaptation train. Between their upcoming series based in the Fallout universe with Walton Goggins and a Mass Effect show coming in the future, the company has been rather aggressive in tapping the gaming sphere for content, a trend that's becoming all the more common Hollywood as of late. Now, per a report from Deadline, they're eying PlayStation's blockbuster God of War franchise for their next big live-action series.
The potential series would see Prime Video team up with Sony Pictures Television and PlayStation Productions to bring the action-packed mythological adventure to the small screen with The Expanse creators Mark Fergus and Hawk Otsby as well as The Wheel of Time showrunner Rafe Judkins in charge. If it goes through, it'll be the latest in a string of PlayStation exclusive games to get the live action treatment.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY God of War would be a perfect candidate for the sort of big budget, live action adventure Prime Video is looking for. The original trilogy of games and the surrounding spinoffs were already big hits for Sony Santa Monica Studios, following the rage-filled Kratos as he slaughtered his way through the Greek pantheon as revenge for the death of his family.
With the crew they have on board so far and Sony executives involved as producers, a God of War Prime Video series sounds like it could match the grand, gory scale of the source material. There's also no indication of whether this series will start from the beginning of Kratos' story or skip directly to the Norse dad era of the Ghost of Sparta's journey. Either way, there's a good show to be made here if Amazon closes the deal.
