Kratos Recast After Injury | Entertainment and Celebrity News

Hurst, who’d bulked up for the role, is recovering post-surgery but won’t be back until 2027, making it impossible to meet the show’s shooting schedule.

Moore and studios are now scrambling to prep a new Kratos for filming in October—rare, but not unheard of, in TV history.
