US Edition'God of War' Video Game Creator Calls First Look of TV Series 'Bad in so Many Ways'
David Jaffe criticized the official God of War photo for poor visual elements but praised the cast and production team, expecting the series to be good.
- On Feb. 27, Amazon Prime released an official first-look photo showing Ryan Hurst as Kratos and Callum Vinson as Atreus, which David Jaffe, creator of the God of War video games, sharply criticized in a YouTube reaction Saturday.
- Among the grievances, Jaffe criticized Atreus’s overly styled hair, a poorly lit prop rock resembling styrofoam, and Kratos’s pose and expression as `dumb` and `stupid`.
- Acknowledging production credentials, Jaffe praised showrunner Ron Moore and noted Emmy-winning director Frederick E.O. Toye directs the first two episodes, with a two-season commitment, and still has hope for the series.
- Prime Video had no immediate comment, and Ryan Hurst, actor portraying Kratos, responded to fan backlash on Instagram, writing `Don't believe everything you see on the internet, kids.`, as the dispute played out online after Jaffe’s YouTube reaction on Saturday.
- The series adapts the storyline of the two most recent God of War games, featuring Kratos and Atreus’ journey to spread Faye’s ashes, amid early promotion including the Feb. 27 first-look release and reactions from creator David Jaffe.
