Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Tom Holland have been confirmed to star in the highly anticipated “God of War” TV show. Johnson will take on the role of the vengeful Spartan warrior, Kratos, while Holland will play his son, Atreus.
The show is set to follow Kratos and Atreus on their journey through the Nine Realms as they attempt to fulfill a promise made to Kratos’ deceased wife. Along the way, they will face off against powerful gods and monsters, including the likes of Thor and Loki.
Fans of the video game franchise will be excited to see Johnson bring his unique brand of intensity and physicality to the role of Kratos. Holland, known for his performances in the “Spider-Man” franchise, is expected to bring a sense of vulnerability and humanity to Atreus.
“I’m thrilled to be joining the ‘God of War’ team and bringing Kratos to life on the small screen,” Johnson said in a statement. “I can’t wait to dive into the character and bring his journey to the audience.”
Holland added, “Atreus is such a fascinating character, and I’m honored to be able to portray him in this new adaptation. I can’t wait to see how fans react to the show.”
The “God of War” TV show is set to premiere in early 2023 on a major streaming platform. Fans can expect epic battles, emotional character moments, and stunning visuals as Kratos and Atreus fight to survive in the brutal world of Norse mythology.
