More than three years after the project was first announced, Amazon's God of War TV series is finally getting into pre-production as casting begins for the lead roles of Kratos and Atreus. The show has also enlisted a veteran director in Frederick E.O. Toye, whose previous credits include many of the most notable shows of the past decade.

Toye will direct the first two episodes of the God of War show, as Deadline reports. You can head to Wikipedia if you want his full credits list, but he's handled episodes of Westworld, The Walking Dead, The Boys, Watchmen, and Fallout. He also won an Emmy for outstanding directing on the penultimate episode of Shogun.
