A God of War TV show is in the works at Amazon.
A report by Deadline claims that Prime Video is currently in talks with PlayStation about potentially turning God of War into a live-action series. The Expanse creators Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby, along with The Wheel of Time showrunner Rafe Judkins will reportedly collaborate with Sony Pictures on the God of War series.
As of right now, there are no details on whether this series would follow the classic God of War trilogy that came out on PS2 and PS2 or the recent soft-reboot. Given how ridiculously popular 2018’s God of War is, it’s a safe bet that the latter is more likely.
God of War 2018 recently came to PC, and the sequel God of War Ragnarök will likely release on PS5 this fall.

There have been many video game adaptations from film and television studios lately, and plenty of them are based on PlayStation franchises. From HBO’s upcoming Last of Us TV series to the recent Uncharted movie, which was (surprisingly) a box office success.
Though Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is probably the biggest video game film looming on the horizon, and it’ll be out in just a couple of months.
