‘God Of War’ Movie Gets New Writers

It looks like this week we are getting a whole bunch of news announcing video games being adapted into movies. If you don’t know much about ‘God Of War’ the game followed the battles of the Spartan warrior Kratos, who squares off against mythological beasts including Medusa, Cyclops and the Hydra in his quest to find Pandora’s Box and destroy Ares, the god of war.

With the financial success of movies such as ‘Wrath Of The Titans’ and ‘Immortals’ it was only a matter of time until a studio put this one into motion. David Self,who is exec producing, wrote the initial draft and now Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan have been hired to re-write the script for the upcoming movie. The writing team has written four of the six ‘Saw’ movies and the upcoming ‘Pacific Rim’.

Charles Roven and Alex Gartner are producing via Atlas Entertainment.

Now the big question is…who could play Kratos?
