Dude played the role for about 10 years, and he really grew into it to become a mature actor. Let's hope he expands his roles that are just as intimate and personal in other mediums
The performance he has when the wolf dies is just soooo impressive. He's a talented kid and really looking forward to his furture performance, movie or video game
I've never played God Of War or even really watched any clips of it but I saw Sunny first through The Killing of a Sacred Deer (SO GOOD) and then Mid90s (also good 👍). He seems a very talented person.
Oops I definitely should not have glanced down here & seen this spoiler lol since, comment sections show even when you don’t click on it and scroll lol
Judge and Suljic having the "Father/Son" or "Mentor/Student" dynamic really made the relationship between Kratos/Atreus believable. Because that's essentially what it was, Judge was teaching Suljic to be a voice actor, and Kratos was teaching Atreus to be a warrior.
@@pxnk_n_disorderly that’s what I was going to say on top of the fact that they did full performance capture for the game as well just calling that voice acting isn’t exactly accurate.
I'm so glad Chris Judge won best performance at the VGA's but I voted for Sunny personally. His performance blew me away in its subtly and how genuine he was
Man, hearing Sunny talk about his performance with Fenrir, it's no wonder his character is so beloved. He's diligent yet humble and really respects the process of making these games. Great dude. I hope we see him again.
He played this so well Atreus felt like a real 13-15 year old he’s awkward,moody and shy at times he wants his dad to look at him in a good light it was crazy because I remember lashing out at my mom because she didn’t understand on how I felt or how I got nervous when meeting someone new or even when I got my first crush and it made my heart flutter
I do hope more developers get him to play different roles. Often times, young actors who book very memorable roles get typecasted and eventually become forgotten. This time, let's hope it's not the case.
I don't care what anybody says this kid has such a bright future ahead of him and I for 1 would love to see/play a spinoff or maybe having his own game as Atreus in the next GoW installment.
The humble attitude and the level of self-reflection which he displays will serve him well. Looking forward to following his career, whatever shape or form it will take.
I can see a lot going on behind his eyes. I think he’s got a bright future Atreaus was extremely captivating. Both 2018 and ragnarok. Striking performance bro Also seeing and hearing more about Christopher, I almsot think the vassal of Kratos does not do him Justice. He is more deserving of a more expressive character
Sunny was phenomenal and his performance was just plain amazing. I hope we see him more in the future. His performance with Fenrir in the beginning made me straight up cry.
His performance was amazing, and this video really put into perspective for me the time and effort it takes to make a game like this! To begin filming at 8 and now be 17 just shows how long projects like this stay a part of your life.
I truly think 2018 and Ragnorak will be a benchmark on coming of age stories of the modern age, all because of you! These two games moved me so much as an adult I can only imagine experiencing this as a kid.
Genuinely don’t know who else would be better for this role than sunny. Just like he said, the chemistry he had with Christopher is something you can’t replace. That happens a lot in games, like in tlou with Joel and Ellie. The first time you see it, you know and feel just how well it fits, and can’t replace it.
Sunny truly blew me away with his performance in both games, I hope we get to see more of his characters journey and him walking his own path. I hope he knows how precious little Atreus is for a lot of us fans of these games💛
While I love Christopher Judge I think he def deserved to win VA of the year. His performance as atreus was amazing and he did such a great job raising the character
Sunny absolutely nailed his performance. I would love to play a game as Atreus in the future (spin off?). Atreus' fight mechanic in Ragnarok is great as a stand alone directly playable character. I hope Sunny gets the role again as I'm sure he would
Man... I still remember the release day like it was yesterday. Our boy went through voice cracking stage it's just unbelievable how time flies so f'n fast.
The Performance of Sunny was incredible. Especially the death on Fenrir took me quite a while to recover :D. Thank you for this masterpiece of game! Definitely made my gaming year 2022!!
I really hope we get to see more of Atreus's journey with Suljic in the role. This guy deserves to be up there with the greats of video game actors, or actors in general. He's got genuine talent and he clearly works hard.
Sometimes I forget how much time and energy are put into AAA games nowadays. Sunny was 8 during production of GoW 2018 and 17 during release of Ragnarok. Roger Clark who played Arthur Morgan in RDR2 recorded his lines initially in 2012. Makes me appreciate these games a lot.
Sunny’s performance in both games were amazing. I remember when Kratos was in the light of alfheim for too long and Atreus pulled him out! Panned to all the defeated dark elves…..Atreus was fed tf up 😭 too good!!
The best part is that Santa Monica actually cares about making a good story. You can tell he's in good hands. This kid has a long future in the Video Game Industry.
Sunny should be very proud of these accomplishments. He did so well as Atreus/Loki in both of these games. Especially that Fenrir scene hit me personally, few months prior before Ragnarok released , my cat passed away and had to bury him , lived with me for almost like 12 years ( he could've been older but he was originally a stray that lived outside our apartments , then when it got really REALLY cold we decided to keep him . He probably could've been like 15 or 16 years old or older. But that was a horrible week or 2 after that happened) so that scene was gonna stick with me for quite a bit . He's becoming an amazing talented actor . Hope he is able to continue as Atreus and can't wait to see what he does next. His acting is amazing. I see a bright future for him acting wise
Thank you Sunny, for everything you did. Atreus is such a great character, and GOW has been a big part of my gaming life. The love you brought to Atreus and the rest of the cast and game, is huge. Thanks again. I appreciate you!
Just finished Ragnarok. In the 2018 game, Atreus is a nice character with bits of protagonism here and there. In Ragnarok, he is one of if not the best character overall. His arc is so fun to experience, his reflections, the way he manages to talk his way around Asgard and their people... And it's also really fun to play as him so a 10/10 in every aspect
Sunny is so adorable! 😂 He did amazing playing as Atreus. I am glad we got a behind the scenes with his character because there was already one out for kratos.
I've been playing God of War recently (for the first time), and Sunny's performance as Atreus has definitely been a highlight of the game, especially in the latter half. I can't wait to play Ragnarok and see more of him in the role!
@@simaopinto8521 easy to look humble online, and alot of Hollywood people are pedophiles, let's hope he stays in line but he will never be like you or me
How Sunny became B-O-Y! These 2 actors nailed their roles in this franchise, I can't wait for more. Hopefully, if they do post ragnarok on the tv show, he's atreus again
Chris and sunny did such an AMAZING dang job that I had to replay the whole 2018 game all over again 3 times, each time with different difficulty level mode and I’m about to do the same with Ragnarok. Since Forspoken was such a disappointment😫. But anyways I really hope they’ll continue with Atreus story finding the giants.
Theyve been working on it since 2014, released the first game in 2018 then the sequel 4 yrs after, they real took time to give us these masterpiece, Sunny and Christopher was phenomenal, perfectly cast for their roles, hopefully we will get the 3rd part in 2026?
I think he was fantastic in the first one. Both. Maybe it’s a hot take, I want to keep playing as Kratos, but if Atreus took over as the lead for God of war, I’d still love it
Atreus wouldn't be Atreus without Sunny. I really loved his performance throughout the game, I felt his frustration, sadness, and his joy, I loved the chemistry between Kratos and Angrboda, and I was so glad to see he was also nominated as actor of the year for the Game Awards with Chris. So well deserved. If Atreus ever gets his own games I'd love for Sunny to play him. Also it's really crazy to realise he's spent most of his life playing as and being this character. I didn't realise the production for these games took that long, I figured it was a long and complex process, but wow. Kudos to everyone on the team for keeping it up!
Sunny said he wasnt a biggest fan of his 2018 performance and he feels like watching his emberassing old video everyone have feeling like that, so it's natural and it means he is so good and talented that he can feels that way like Atreus is really part of him "hope that I can be Atreus again" No you Atreus boy. You will be our Atreus
God of War ragnarok is the single best video game i've ever experienced in my life. To think I would live to experience it. I'm very grateful. Thank you, Sunny. Thank you, Chris! I love you all.
Sunny is da Goat he deserves so much this world has to offer,he's the best character in the game along side his father Kratos,hopefully we see more sunny in video games in the future
I hope Atreus become a recurring character of the God of War franchise. I don't want him to replace Kratos but I do like their duo dynamic on both story and gameplay wise. If they can continue what they did in Ragnarok but with the different mythology they have in mind it will definitely be a success since thanks to Atreus curiosity and friendly behavior we get to know more about the Mythology and characters while Kratos brings the action and strength that is God of War.
I hope we continue to see the trend of games hiring actual child/teen actors to play child/teen roles, especially if the character is a protagonist/co-protagonist. It really creates far more genuine, realistic, and relatable characters imo, and I think Atreus is a perfect example of that.
“hope that I can be Atreus again”
same here sunny, same here. you deserve the role
Dude played the role for about 10 years, and he really grew into it to become a mature actor. Let's hope he expands his roles that are just as intimate and personal in other mediums
@@mikez4388 I mean, he did Mid90s and that felt like a personal role
th-cam.com/video/O87hoI0DJR8/w-d-xo.html
Did you see the smile when he said that? Have you played the game? He's getting a spin off
Absolutely 🥺💙
The performance he has when the wolf dies is just soooo impressive. He's a talented kid and really looking forward to his furture performance, movie or video game
I've never played God Of War or even really watched any clips of it but I saw Sunny first through The Killing of a Sacred Deer (SO GOOD) and then Mid90s (also good 👍). He seems a very talented person.
He was really good in mid 90's. I highly recommend that movie

"I know you don't like me, but we're gonna have to trust each other just... a little bit."
That delivery was perfect.
and then he had to rerecord the voices for the entire game that shocked me
Judge and Suljic having the "Father/Son" or "Mentor/Student" dynamic really made the relationship between Kratos/Atreus believable. Because that's essentially what it was, Judge was teaching Suljic to be a voice actor, and Kratos was teaching Atreus to be a warrior.
A warrior and a man.

Be Better.
An actor, not just a voice actor. Both these guys have performed in cinematic projects.

But his acceptance speech was a little bit off....
I did too!
@@markmauk8231if you had a chance of Al Pacino giving you props you’d flub up ur speech
@@fortminor85 yeah*lol Probably
They really got lucky with Sunny and Chris Judge. Perfect casting, perfect dynamic.
They had like perfect score on the chemistry test between them iirc
Surprised to hear he wasn't happy with his performance in 2018,he was brilliant even at that age.
Yeah I replay 2018 all the time just because I like traveling with and listening to atreus speak
It’s not Tht he said he wasn’t happy with his performances it’s that he felt embarasssed. If u find a video of ur old self it gets weird
He's cringing
I think he thinks he's cringe in 2018.
You'd be surprised at how many actors who don't watch the stuff they've worked on nor like watching themselves in.
Man, hearing Sunny talk about his performance with Fenrir, it's no wonder his character is so beloved. He's diligent yet humble and really respects the process of making these games. Great dude. I hope we see him again.
He played this so well Atreus felt like a real 13-15 year old he’s awkward,moody and shy at times he wants his dad to look at him in a good light it was crazy because I remember lashing out at my mom because she didn’t understand on how I felt or how I got nervous when meeting someone new or even when I got my first crush and it made my heart flutter
Sunny is such a humble person, he has a brighter future ahead of him especially in game history
Heh brighter
Get it caus-
Oh nevermind-
I really hope he keeps acting. I think he has a ton of potential
@@katrinabelos4186not even funny…
@@katrinabelos4186that was hilarious
I do hope more developers get him to play different roles. Often times, young actors who book very memorable roles get typecasted and eventually become forgotten. This time, let's hope it's not the case.

Agreed

It is pretty much confirmed.

The people who complained about his annoyances in the game are only proving the high level of his acting skills
Yeah plus he’s Loki..he’s supposed to be annoying

Like Chris said at game awards he is the future of the gaming world
He is a brilliant young actor. His career will be great
I literally cried for the Fenrir scene. Amazing performance.
Sunny was so dope as Atreus, and I loved him in Mid90s. This kid’s got a bright future.
💀💀
Loved every second of Sunny's performance as Atreus/Loki and couldn't imagine anyone else in the role. Absolute legend. Also, BOI.
He's so talented for his age! Scoring nothing but absolute bangers so far proves Sunny has pure TALENT
I can see a lot going on behind his eyes. I think he’s got a bright future
Atreaus was extremely captivating. Both 2018 and ragnarok. Striking performance bro
Also seeing and hearing more about Christopher, I almsot think the vassal of Kratos does not do him
Justice. He is more deserving of a more expressive character
Kids been famous for like 6 years already you don’t have to say he has a bright future
@@osteazo 6 years is long but also not long if you consider a lot of actors careers
also Sunny is 17 so yeah

To be honest, the writers are still the ones deserving most of the credit. Actor's don't make up themes and arcs on the spot
His voice is so iconic now, I'm so proud of this kid
sunny saying he disliked his 2018 performance when he gave us scenes like the “how do you know?” scene is insane

Bro I didn’t know that sunny was the actor for this it surprised me, it’s really cool to now know that he played at Atreus 😃

@TeenVogue22 you should be ashamed of yourself. You poor fledgling shitlet. Nobody loves you. Sadge.
He really did such a great job in this most recent one. He played on the dynamic so well. I wish he would do more stuff, what a great actor

i hope not bro those missions were boring asl
Him shaking up and “hoping” to try this again totally is code for oh yeah and we’re making another one at some point.

Mcu loki and Norse Loki are completely different glad he didn't go full mcu style
It’s insane that we’re the same age watching him since mid-90s and his skating career
Theyve been working on it since 2014, released the first game in 2018 then the sequel 4 yrs after, they real took time to give us these masterpiece, Sunny and Christopher was phenomenal, perfectly cast for their roles, hopefully we will get the 3rd part in 2026?
One of the best voice actors, he deserves it
Oh my heart when he said he had lost his dog and started genuinely crying for his own dog with fenrir.
Boy, you ought to have your own game sometime after this!
He did an amazing job in God of war and he was adorable. And he didn’t disappoint in Ragnarok. Perfect
I think he was fantastic in the first one. Both. Maybe it’s a hot take, I want to keep playing as Kratos, but if Atreus took over as the lead for God of war, I’d still love it
He has to be the most talented teen actor I've seen fr
Atreus wouldn't be Atreus without Sunny. I really loved his performance throughout the game, I felt his frustration, sadness, and his joy, I loved the chemistry between Kratos and Angrboda, and I was so glad to see he was also nominated as actor of the year for the Game Awards with Chris.

He did such a fantastic job. I can’t wait to see where he and the GOW team take Atreus in the future.
1:39 this is a really cool design for maybe an even older atreus. Maybe in GOW6 he might look this cool or even cooler
I had no idea he was so young when he auditioned for the first game wow
Game development takes so long sometimes you forget how much time goes by and how fast the little ones grow
Had a lot of fun playing as Atreus, hope we get God of Mischief game.
I hope he'll be part of the next game as well❤❤❤❤
Sunny said he wasnt a biggest fan of his 2018 performance
and he feels like watching his emberassing old video
everyone have feeling like that, so it's natural
and it means he is so good and talented that he can feels that way like Atreus is really part of him

Where ever the next god of war game is set weather it’s Egypt or Japan or anywhere else I hope we see a young adult Atreus with kratos
I love how when I hear him talk. I just hear Atreus and its awesome.
It’s crazy how video games are made now , it still amazes me
Crossing my fingers for a spin off series with Atreus
