One of my favourite sci-fi B-movie baddies has just been cast as Baldur in Amazon's God of War TV series

Production of Sony and Amazon MGM's God of War series seems to be ticking along nicely after starting from scratch back in 2024. Ed Skrein has just been added to the cast. The North London actor will play Baldur, the main antagonist from the 2018 God of War game.

As reported by Deadline (via Eurogamer), "Charismatic, unpredictable and armed with a razor-sharp tongue, Baldur lives by his own rules." Skrein, who has played several baddies in the past, is a perfect casting choice in my opinion.
