Judge will voice Kratos in the newest entry into the video game franchise.

Christopher Judge Is the New Face (or Rather Voice) of God of War

Stargate SG-1‘s Christopher Judge has a sweet new gig: He’ll lend his voice to Sony’s popular God of War video game franchise in the lead role.

Judge (“Teal’c”) will voice the character Kratos, a powerful being who has grown a beard and moved on from Greek mythology, now living in the quiet shadows of Norse culture in the fourth God of War. “With new purpose and his son at his side, Kratos must fight for survival as powerful forces threaten to disrupt the new life he has created.”

The action-adventure game will be released for the PlayStation 4 with a score from Battlestar Galactica‘s Bear McCreary. No release date has been announced yet.
