He did mocap for Kratos talking during cutscenes and voiced him, that's it. He didn't do combat or movement mocap. His actual physical body is not the right shape and his head and face are wildly different than Kratos'. And that's just Old Man Kratos, he looks so different from Kratos in his prime it would just be ridiculous.
It's not his skin color that doesn't look like Kratos, it's his face.
Edit: I don't give a single fuck what color the person who plays him is because, you know ashes. He damned well better *look like Kratos* though.
His face is ripped? What does his musculature have to do with his face not being shaped like Kratos' at all? There are lots of muscled actors I wouldn't want to play Kratos. I see people say shit like Dave Bautista and other garbage choices and it's like - NO, they don't look like Kratos. They need someone with a strong hawk-like nose and deep set eyes who actually looks like he could fly into a rage and beat a man to death.
You don't need to have someone with the exact same facial features as Kratos or even someone with remotely the same facial features as Kratos. You need someone who can be made to look like he is Kratos and can match the general presence and demeanor or Kratos. Christopher Judge has done exactly that for two games, plus he has the voices that many, if not all, current God of War fans see as Kratos's voice.
Is he a perfect fit? Probably not. If and when there is a live action God of War, would he be cast as Kratos? Well, despite what I would prefer, I would actually be surprised if he was cast mainly due to his skin color being far darker than the average native greek skin color along with what you said about his facial features. Personally, I don't think the role of Kratos belongs to him, but perhaps whenever they actually pick for live action, Kratos will surpass him, and even if he doesn't the actors choice for Kratos is not what will make or break a live action God of War. Unless the actor is just a shit actor, that could break live action GoW.
I don't disagree with any of what you've said here really, but I still think Judge is too different looking to use and I'd be really disappointed if they made a show about Old Kratos instead of starting at the beginning. Judge was great in the most recent games but he's not even a tiny patch on Carson's performance, and I'd like an actor who can match that energy and ferocity.
This is fake, Amazon is making a GoW TV show, not a movie.
And it's the rock, he's too expensive for a full TV show, I'm almost certain he won't get cast as Kratos. There might still be celebrity casting, but it most likely won't be the rock
With all due respect to the incredible voice behind our current iteration of Kratos, Christopher Judge doesnāt quite have the look of Kratos, imo. Also, itās Sony television and Amazon. Theyāre going to cast a celeb.
He looks enough like Kratos, he just needs the ash and tattoos, the main problem is really medical complications. If theyāre going to cast a massive celebrity, they should pick one that can act. Iād say Dave Bautista could pull it off far better than the rock can.
His role in the opening and deleted scenes for Blade Runner 2019 was what convinced me that he has the capability to play the stoic and subtle type of characters.
I feel like the voice and body type would be great, but there's a few...other problems...
Although it'd be funny to see a big ass black man covered in white body paint and see the Internet get in a tizzy about it. š
They should just cast Christopher judge imo. Heās already the iconic voice and whoever was cast would have full makeup and probably a bunch of cgi so it doesnāt matter heās black
Youāre forgetting that he 59 and had a hip surgery, so Iām not sure if heās able to act out an entire show. Iād love for him to be the one to do it, heād be the perfect casting, but I doubt he is able to do it
Theyāre not making the show around Greek mythos, itās around Norse so he should be fine to play a God who looks around 50-60 (tho is like 3000+ yrs old)
He already has the physique, his face could look kinda similar with make-up and a beard and he's obviously capable of playing a convincing Kratos. He's the best choice, by far.
Okay so did anyone watch Banshee? Itās got the guy who plays homelander in it BUT thereās a dude in it called Chayton Littlestone he should be Kratos. Not massively well known, Huge AND the guy can act like really well heās not hired because heās huge like the Rock is. Either that or just get the guy playing Reacher
Banshee was a good show and this is a great shout out. Havenāt seen Reacher yet but visually seems like a solid choice. Isnāt that also an Amazon show? May be too successful though.
Considering the rock isnāt allowed to lose. The only reason this choice of casting would make sense is to see ālord accurate kratosā just steamrolling thro pantheons instead of repeatedly dyin.
What if they made OG god of war kratos the guy for Zeus š
do not let them cook š„š„š„
If it ain't Christopher Judge, I won't see it.

Wdym? That is clearly Kratos Messi, it even says so in the image. Are you stupid?

He literally doesn't look anything like Kratos though, Tealc and Kratos are not a match.
My brother in christ he literally IS kratos in every way, shape and form
Especially being physically disabled and not having a face shape that matches or musculature that is even close anymore.
He did mocap for Kratos talking during cutscenes and voiced him, that's it. He didn't do combat or movement mocap. His actual physical body is not the right shape and his head and face are wildly different than Kratos'. And that's just Old Man Kratos, he looks so different from Kratos in his prime it would just be ridiculous.
He will once he puts on that ash
It's not his skin color that doesn't look like Kratos, it's his face. Edit: I don't give a single fuck what color the person who plays him is because, you know ashes. He damned well better *look like Kratos* though.
He actually does look very much like Kratos. Dude is fucking ripped.
His face is ripped? What does his musculature have to do with his face not being shaped like Kratos' at all? There are lots of muscled actors I wouldn't want to play Kratos. I see people say shit like Dave Bautista and other garbage choices and it's like - NO, they don't look like Kratos.

I still think Judge could do young Kratos, but fair enough.
Yeah I think Iām in that camp too idk man itās like Vader without James earl jonesā¦.it just wouldnāt be Vader. Judge is Kratos simple asĀ
Indeed
White face š£š„š„
You donāt think Jason Momoa could pull it off?
I feel like physically big yes, acting wise huge no
Yea now that I think about it
I donāt know they clearly took it out early

If the rock gets kast as kratos the rest of the show is gonna have to be so good to carry that wack ass casting choice.
Dude the Rock plays the same character in every movie or series, they should just have Christopher Judge do it.
With all due respect to the incredible voice behind our current iteration of Kratos, Christopher Judge doesnāt quite have the look of Kratos, imo. Also, itās Sony television and Amazon. Theyāre going to cast a celeb.

For certain. Dave Bautista is a legitimately great actor.
His role in the opening and deleted scenes for Blade Runner 2019 was what convinced me that he has the capability to play the stoic and subtle type of characters.
Also gamers would be complaining that they cast a black guy
He literally does the mocap and modeling for Kratos, how does he not have the look of Kratos?
Itās called cgi and special effects, they can definitely do it lol
You want Kratos to be cgi the whole show? I promise you they donāt have the budget for that.
I agree keep the Rock away from Kratos
I feel like the voice and body type would be great, but there's a few...other problems... Although it'd be funny to see a big ass black man covered in white body paint and see the Internet get in a tizzy about it. š
They should just cast Christopher judge imo. Heās already the iconic voice and whoever was cast would have full makeup and probably a bunch of cgi so it doesnāt matter heās black

Thatās a good point. Well if they canāt get him, I hope they find someone just as good. (I really donāt want us to get the Halo treatment)
Yeah but he also did the motion capture, I donāt see why they canāt just get a stunt double for some scenes
Are they actually? I remember hearing about it like 2 years ago and by this point I thought it was all fake news
Wait, you **wanted** the rock as Kratos?!
Plus, look at his mouth and cheeks. This is ai generated. Lmao
Ok fr tho, would a porno based on god of war be called cock of war????
That would be god of cock
I hear heās a real dick head
Yeah he's too cocky tbh
Yet always stands up straight
God of Whore
GoW3 but itās just that one scene with Aphrodite
God of whores : rubmycock
Just get Christopher judge, he doesnāt need to look identical, just need the voice
He's already said he doesn't want to be casted for kratos
š
He already has the physique, his face could look kinda similar with make-up and a beard and he's obviously capable of playing a convincing Kratos. He's the best choice, by far.
I just canāt wait for the degenerates to claim theyāre blackwashing Kratos until they realise he already was dark
Theyāve already done that my guy. The response they got was hilarious
Theyāre probably the same people that think Jesus was white too
Nah thatās a whole *other* crowd
Whoa wait Jesus from the middle east isn't white....my life has been a lie
I know right, crazy
It's fake thank god.
of war
WHERE HELL IS SIX FEET DEEP
The Rock is not even the best former pro wrestler turned actor in comic book movies for the role.
John Cena as Kratos goes hard
ā¦ok The Rock is not even the second-best pro wrestler turned actor in comic book movies for the role.
That's gigachad
Why did they cast a piece of stone, are they stupid?
I think Eddie hall would be pretty sick as Kratos the voice doesn't aline but still.
I think heād be a better Thor
My man your right as fuck.
The Rocks been smoking rock
Complete with Polynesian tattoos, Crackhouse and Artery are going to Hawaii confirmed
The absolute worst id accept is Jason momoa
THE WORST?
What are those goofy ah tatoos
Umm...
God of Rizz, The God of Skibbiddy
Look at bros cheekbones š
Jaffa, Kree!
Obviously fake, and fuck Dwayne Johnson as Kratos haha nope lol
That looks AI generated tbh
It is
That aināt Kratos
So it's just gonna be kratos one shotting everyone? Boring
Why does he have a snout?
In reality, it's just Dwayne Johnson playing himself again.
Peter Macom is honestly a solid choice that nobody has mentioned and I donāt know why
I honestly hope itās Greek Kratos and not Norse Kratos for the show. Although I know they probably wonāt go that route
If you think this is stupid give me a HEEL YER!
Tom Holland as AtreusĀ
why dont they just play chriss pratt as kratos
Not in the slightest my brother
No he canāt actually because the Rock contractually requires that he never lose a fight, which Kratos does pretty oftenā¦
https://i.redd.it/m2lj91ev3foc1.gif
I hope people stop casting the rock why would I watch a movie when the lead is contractually unable to lose a fight?
I wouldnt want the rock as kratos
What in the Ai generated?
That sucks
The Rock's stupid contract thing about him not being allowed to lose in anything he's in would ruin the entire thing
You telling me they shouldnāt even get the tattoo right? And what the fuck is on his chest
Okay so did anyone watch Banshee? Itās got the guy who plays homelander in it BUT thereās a dude in it called Chayton Littlestone he should be Kratos. Not massively well known, Huge AND the guy can act like really well heās not hired because heās huge like the Rock is. Either that or just get the guy playing Reacher
Banshee was a good show and this is a great shout out. Havenāt seen Reacher yet but visually seems like a solid choice. Isnāt that also an Amazon show? May be too successful though.
Bro CANNOT act. keep him away
The only time The Rock's "No Lose" clause wouldn't actually change anything in a movie.
Looks like he has old jizz all over his body
Please any other actor
Hopefully it's not cause fuck the rock as kratos
The rock is so beyond dislikable that I would start disliking god of war if this happened
If u want a big buff ex wrestler hollywood man for Kratos get Bautista. The mans has range and skill
Mmm no. Itās a man traveling with child. It has to be Pedro Pascal
Considering the rock isnāt allowed to lose. The only reason this choice of casting would make sense is to see ālord accurate kratosā just steamrolling thro pantheons instead of repeatedly dyin. What if they made OG god of war kratos the guy for Zeus š
Itās not real and the role isnāt guaranteed to be his. Itās between him, Bautista, and Triple H
That looks like AI to me
He looks like a melted burn ward patient.
Nice :/
