From
the illustrious narratives of ancient Greek mythology where mortals and gods
collide, comes the story of THE
LEGEND OF HERCULES. A reimagining of the hero’s epic origins, the film
approaches Hercules’ otherworldly and legendary history from the perspective of
a young man struggling with his destiny.
Desperate
to free her people from the rule of her vengeful husband and bring peace to the
land, Queen Alcmene prays to the gods for guidance. She is granted a son,
Hercules, by Zeus, the God of War. As his true identity remains secret,
Hercules’ illegitimacy is resented by King Amphitryon, who favors his elder
son, Iphicles.
As
a young man, Hercules falls in love with the beautiful Hebe, until they are
suddenly torn apart by his father’s proclamation that Iphicles shall marry the
princess. Planning to run away and marry
his love, Hercules is captured by King Amphitryon’s guards and sent off to die
at war. Escaping death, Hercules unites with fellow warrior, Sotiris, on a
noble quest to free the kingdom from Amphitryon’s tyranny, win back his true
love from his brother’s grasps, and take his place as the greatest of Greek
heroes.
Starring
Kellan Lutz in the title role, THE LEGEND OF HERCULES is a thrilling action
adventure that comes to life at the hands of director Renny Harlin. With a cast
of rising talent including Liam McIntyre, Gaia Weiss, Liam Garrigan, Roxanne
McKee as well as Scott Adkins and Rade Serbedzija—the film grounds the
ubiquitous characterizations of Hercules’ superhuman strength and courage by
revealing the humanity behind the man.
