God of War TV series sees further recasts as Amazon seeks older actors for Atreus and Thrud

Kratos and Atreus in the Amazon God of War TV show.

Amazon's God of War series has already seen one major recast, with Kratos actor Ryan Hurst having to depart the role after suffering a bicep tear on set. While Hurst has reportedly had surgery and is recovering, the injury was severe enough that production was paused and Amazon has opted to seek out a replacement. Dave Bautista is apparently in talks to replace him.

But Kratos isn't the only character in the TV show who will be seeing a change in actor. Amazon also plans to recast roles of Atreus and Thrud. Unlike Kratos' impromptu recasting, however, the switch for these characters is a planned, creative decision that will take effect from Season 2 onward.
