As the God of War TV show gets closer to hitting our screens, we've now had a behind the scenes look at what Baldur might look like in the show.
Deadpool and Rebel Moon actor Ed Skrein is taking on the role in the Prime Video adaptation, and, in a picture shared by Freya actor Sonya Walger, we get a sneak peek at his style.
It looks pretty game accurate, with a busy beard that's maybe a tad smaller than his game counterpart. Skrein is wearing a shirt, so it's impossible to tell if he'll have matching tattoos, though we'd wager a guess that he will. Check out the picture below.
The rest of the cast in the picture include Louis Cunningham (Modi), Alastair Duncan (Mimir), Max Parker (Heimdall), and Ben Chapple (Magni).
The first look at the God of War TV show revealed Ryan Hurst as Kratos and Callum Vinson as Atreus. While Kratos's look is extremely game accurate, it also suffers a bit from an uncanny valley effect.
"I’m sure everybody's trying real hard, it's so dumb,” said God of War creator David Jaffe of the first look. "Kratos in this pose with this expression, not the guy's face, but this expression, he just looks stupid. If you're going to reveal, to most people, a brand new character that you hope is going to carry your series, for the first time, and they've never really seen this before, and this is the way you introduce them?"
