God of War's director believes his series could be made into a Witcher-style Netflix show.

There’s a lot to unpack there, obviously.

Fundamentally, yes, I could see this working. But the question, of course, is where to start. There have been three main games in the series where the main thrust of the story was Kratos killing quite literally every figure in Greek mythology you’ve ever heard of as revenge for his murdered family. That means gods, titans and everyone in between.

While focused on ultra-violence, these games did have pretty good storylines and I could see the original trilogy being used as source material. But obviously things graduated to a new level when Barlog’s 2018came out, pulling Kratos out of his own realm and into the land of Norse gods instead. Kratos was older, wiser and now had a son to look after in the wake of his wife’s death.

This may be a lot to read into based off a tweet, but I think we also have to consider that Sony may have literal plans for this, in some capacity. Back in May 2019 they formed PlayStation Productions, a studio whose sole purpose was to adapt Sony video game properties to film and TV.

There is no one in Hollywood who could accurately portray Kratos. No one.
