Fan Casting Kratos in Steven S. DeKnight's God of War

The Ghost of Sparta. A mortal warrior of legendary strength and bottomless rage, Kratos was once a loving husband and father. After Ares tricks him into slaughtering his own family, he is cursed to wear their ashes on his pale white skin. Consumed by guilt and fury, he vows to destroy the God of War—even if it means battling monsters, gods, and the very forces of Olympus. His journey from beast to broken hero defines the film.
