Christopher Judge Talks God of War Trilogy Remake Casting at Fan Expo Boston

Christopher Judge, the actor who voices Kratos in the two most recent God of War games, used a Fan Expo Boston appearance to weigh in on the casting for the upcoming God of War Trilogy Remake. He also echoed a broader message about why fans keep coming back—praising the care Santa Monica Studio shows toward its audience as the series’ long-running appeal continues into a new era.

Christopher Judge on TC Carson returning for Kratos

During the convention, Judge was asked about the fact that TC Carson will play Kratos in the God of War Trilogy Remake, despite Carson having voiced the character in earlier versions of the original entries. Judge said he’s happy that TC hasn’t been “forgotten,” framing Carson’s involvement as a key part of how the series reached its current standing.

Judge’s comments included the idea that remastered versions of the original games matter because they bring the franchise to new audiences. He characterized this as “wonderful,” emphasizing that preservation and updating older stories can help them reach players who may have missed them the first time.

He also credited the series’ durability to the relationship between Santa Monica Studio and its community, arguing that respect for fans is a major factor in why the franchise has remained popular for about two decades. In his phrasing at the event, that support reflects more than just individual achievements—it’s tied to the wider team’s involvement in the project.

Why remasters still “hit” with players

Judge tied the ongoing popularity of God of War to something simple: if people are willing to pay for a product and invite developers into their homes, the least a studio can do is respond with genuine consideration for what the audience has to say. He specifically pointed to Santa Monica Studio’s approach as evidence that the team does, in fact, show that kind of regard.

Diogo Morgado hints Tyr may return in God of War: Laufey

While the God of War Trilogy Remake still has time to go, the next named release in the wider roadmap is closer: God of War: Laufey is scheduled to launch on February 16, 2027. Ahead of that, Portuguese voice actor Diogo Morgado—who voiced Tyr in God of War: Ragnarok—suggested Tyr could reappear in the upcoming game.

Morgado’s remarks came from his YouTube channel, where he discussed recently shared materials related to God of War: Laufey. When asked directly whether Tyr would be in the game, Morgado declined to confirm or deny, citing strict confidentiality agreements with Sony.

Instead, he left the door open with a remark that, in the future, he will have “a lot to say” about how difficult it has been to stay silent on the matter.
