The invulnerable god finds his actor
Deadline confirms thatEd Skrein will therefore lend his features to the merciless Baldur in this adaptation of God of Warand therefore logically presents himself as the first real big villain of the series, before the rest of his siblings. We imagine that if the show roughly follows the games, it is he who will have to rub shoulders with Kratos (Ryan Hurst) and Atreus (Callum Vinson) in the first episodes, or even be the main antagonist of the entire first season.
If the actor rings a bell, it’s probably because you saw him in the first movie. Dead Poolwhere he tried to take on Marvel’s funniest mercenary with great ferocity. Baldur’s role will not be very far from that. You could also see it in Game of Thrones (one of the versions of Daario Naharis), in the films Rebel Moon by Zack Snyder, in Alita: Battle Angel or even in the last Jurassic World.
Among the important roles to be cast in the series God of Warit still remains to be found who will be able to play Freya, whose actress will undoubtedly share some important scenes with Ed Skrein.
