Parks and Rec star Nick Offerman keeps getting compared to Kratos from God of War on PlayStation 4. The whole thing started thanks to a Twitter thread from Neil Gaiman. The author asked Twitter users to post pictures of themselves as the head of an underground organization without downloading new pics. Offerman posted an image of himself bald with an intimidating stare and an impressive beard. Immediately, fans of the series began making comparisons to the God of War character, and even Cory Barlog got in on the fun! If Sony want to make a live-action adaptation, they just might have the perfect candidate.
The image from Offerman can be found in the Tweet embedded below.

…while others took the case to Cory Barlog.
Nick Offerman should definitely be first choice for Kratos if a movie ever comes up ๐ @corybarlog https://t.co/ZURBEO9oF3

Barlog seems open to the idea!
Just imagine Kratos laughing at Mimir’s jokes with Offerman’s laugh. Priceless.

With Offerman’s woodworking skills, Kratos could carve his own axe!
