    Just get the voice actor from the game, he looks like Kratos, he sounds like Kratos and he can fucking act.

      I assume you mean Christopher Judge, in which case we also get to see a bunch of bigots lose their fucking minds over black Kratos.

      Edit: I just looked it up, the earlier voice actor was also black. Win/win.

        Kratos is black in the games tho.

        It would be really funny to mess bigots up with black casting as well

          He isn’t, though. He’s Greek and his biological kid is like the whitest European ever.

          I mean I don’t care about the casting having the original voice actor would be dope but I don’t understand why something so wrong got so many upvotes.

          There’s pictures of him before the curse that turned his skin bright white

          Kratos & his family https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/godofwar/images/1/10/Kratos'_family.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20100716012620

          Kratos & his brother as kids (Kratos on the left of the picture) https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/3c/Young_Kratos_and_Deimos_GoS.jpg

          He’s a very tan Greek dude.

            That’s very ethno-/skin-centric.

            You can call him lightskin/albino/white-passing but black is still black

          I doubt that bigots are going deeper than “he looks white” is all I’m saying.

    Shouldn’t they hire an actor? You know, someone that knows how to act.

      Dave took acting classes after the first Guardians of the Galaxy film due to the same criticism you’re making now, and subsequent things he’s been in you can see the improvement. Even tho, as a professional wrestler, he’d been acting for years. Y’all know that shit ain’t real, right?

      Bautista can: Blade Runner and Dune and even Guardians of the Galaxy

      You’re probably thinking of Dwayne

      OMG I just imagined Zack Galifianakis playing Mimir, and now I am morbidly intrigued by this cursed idea.

    Oof, they’re still looking for a replacement? This has to have delayed the show by at least a year, and they still have to re-record all those scenes with kratos.

    Bautista seems like he could fit the looks but I don’t think he’s a very good actor from the movies I’ve seen him in.

      Have you seen him in Blade Runner? This scene usually comes up in discussions about him

        Yeah the love that scene gets is mind boggling… he is completely unremarkable in that scene.

      He definitely has the look but his voice isn’t really all that gutteral. He’s less of a raging psychopath out for revenge and more of a comedian who needs to stop and drink water halfway through the show.

      I suppose it’s problematic that the Voice Actor for the videogames most people know were usually dark skinned.
