The Internet Reacts To The First Photo Of Amazon's God Of War

"While you can definitely find some positive and neutral online reactions to the image put out by Amazon on Friday, a lot of users on the web seem unconvinced by the first set photo of Kratos and his son. First announced in 2022, the God of War live-action series could end up being great. Perhaps this image is just a bad first impression of the series we'll get later."

"It didn't look great to me. And looking around online, it's clear I'm not alone in thinking this first tease looks bad. But it doesn't change how meh Kratos in particular looks in this initial photo, which is why so many online pulled out knives and went after it on social media."

Amazon unveiled the first set photo from its live-action God of War adaptation, featuring Ryan Hurst as Kratos and Callum Vinson as Atreus. The image received mixed reactions online, with many users expressing disappointment, particularly with Kratos's appearance. While some positive and neutral responses exist, the majority of social media users criticized the photo. The series, first announced in 2022, is expected to premiere in early 2027 and has already been greenlit for a second season. Ronald D. Moore serves as showrunner and writer for the adaptation.
