'Daredevil' Producer Says Batista Should Get Big Role In A Possible Video Game Film

Metro UK reported today that veteran film/tv director Steven DeKnight (‘Daredevil’ on Netflix, ‘Pacific Rim Uprising’) was asked by a fan who he would like to see casted as ‘Kratos’ from the ‘God of War’ video game series in a possible film adaption, and he pointed out former WWE Champion Batista:

Personally I’m a huge fan of @DaveBautista for the roll. Or any role, to be honest. https://t.co/6bSlfWQTjN

— Steven DeKnight (@stevendeknight) April 25, 2018

It’s worth noting that there is no news at this time of a ‘God of War’film in active development with any studio.

Batista gained massive movie success as ‘Drax the Destroyer’ in two ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ films, and he reprises the role this week with Marvel’s ‘Avengers: Infinity War’.
