God of War TV Series' Creative Team Undergoes Overhaul

It was recently reported that the God of War TV series adaptation will be starting over as series showrunner Rafe Judkins and executive producers Hawk Ostby and Mark Fergus have all left the project. Additionally, it was also reported that they had already made multiple scripts for the series. Regardless, Sony and Amazon have decided to go in a different creative direction.

Santa Monica Studio’s Creative Director, Cory Barlog, will remain as an executive producer for the TV series, as well as PlayStation Production’s Asad Qizilbash and Carter Swan, Vertigo’s Roy Lee, and Santa Monica Studio’s Yumi Yang. After all this, it's been confirmed that Amazon and Sony will now look to find a new showrunner and a new set of producers and writers to reboot the project’s direction and will not be canceling the project.

More to Come, Despite the Delays

God of War TV Series' Creative Team Undergoes Overhaul

The Amazon and Sony collaboration for the God of War TV adaptation was announced on a PlayStation podcast back in 2022, following its massively successful reboot that was released in 2018. This is part of Sony’s focus to adapt their critically acclaimed video game franchises into films and TV shows, which led to the creation of PlayStation Production back in 2019. Part of this announcement was a TV adaptation of Horizon Zero Dawn with Netflix, and more adaptations were coming from older franchises that had a significant following.

Additional shows that have already been released are Naughty Dog’s Uncharted in 2022 and the massively successful The Last of Us TV series in 2023, which will be having a second season in 2025. Other works released were the Gran Turismo film in 2023 and the Twisted Metal TV series this year. Other projects that were already announced to be in development are Gravity Rush, Ghost of Tsushima, Days Gone, and the recently announced Until Dawn film to be released on April 25, 2025.
