A long time before the debates, the director of God of War, Cory Barlog, already had his eyes set on the Venom-famed actor Tom Hardy to play Kratos in a live-action adaptation of the God of War game. In a video that aired six years ago, Cory Barlog expressed his thoughts on who should play Kratos on the silver screen. God of War is one of the most popular gaming titles, making waves since 2005.
Now, the God of War team is planning a live-action adaptation. Although it's still underway, the debate is fierce with some suggesting ex-WWE superstar Dwayne Johnson for his masculine looks and aggressive temperament, and others, the God of War's Kratos' voice actor Christopher Judge. Some even suggest Jason Momoa plays the role.
That six-year old video, IGN had Cory Barlog, God of War director, as its main guest. In that video, Barlog was asked to respond to the comments on IGN's channel. And interestingly, the first comment that popped up on the channel was, "Tom Hardy would make a brilliant live-action Kratos." To this, Barlog said, "That guy can play anything. Tom Hardy is the world serpent. I think that would be pretty good. Tom Hardy is rock."
Seeing Barlog's comments, it's a no-brainer that he's a huge fan of Tom Hardy. And what's even more interesting is that this comment came out a long time before the Dwayne Johnson vs. Christopher Judge battle broke out.
While there's no official confirmation of who's playing Kratos on the silver screen, the fact that Cory Barlog has expressed his liking to Tom Hardy for the role remains.
Who do you think is going to play Kratos? Feel free to drop your thoughts in the comments.
