THE WITCHER Writer Reportedly Joins Amazon’s GOD OF WAR Series
It’s been a while since Amazon first announced its God of War series adaptation, but now there’s some new movement. According to @RedanianIntel, a usually reliable source for fantasy TV scoops, former Witcher writer and producer Tania Lotia has reportedly joined the God of War writers’ room.
Lotia worked on Netflix’s The Witcher since 2023 and was also part of the Mighty Nein animated series from Critical Role, so she’s no stranger to adapting sprawling fantasy worlds with deep lore and fan expectations. Her experience could bring a valuable edge to God of War, especially with its myth-heavy storytelling and emotionally complex lead in Kratos.
Amazon hasn’t officially confirmed Lotia’s involvement, and this hasn’t yet been picked up by other major outlets. But, with the door closed The Witcher following dwindling viewership and the controversial recasting of Geralt, it makes sense that some of the creative team would be moving on to new projects, and God of War seems like a natural fit.
If Lotia really has boarded the project, she joins a production that’s been in flux for a while. Last year, original showrunner Rafe Judkins (The Wheel of Time) and several other creatives exited the series, reportedly triggering a full-scale creative reboot. The project was later handed off to Ronald D. Moore (Battlestar Galactica), who’s now steering the adaptation.
Moore confirmed earlier this year that things are “going well,” though there’s still little to go on beyond that. We don’t have a release window, casting announcements, or even much detail about the show's direction, just that Amazon has reportedly greenlit two seasons already.
Hopefully, this behind-the-scenes movement means Amazon will break the silence on the project soon and throw out some exciting information.
