Summary
In this Disney animated musical, Hercules is the son of Zeus, stolen as a baby and turned mortal by the villainous Hades, lord of the Underworld. Raised on Earth and discovering his divine origins, the awkward young hero trains under the satyr Philoctetes to become a true hero and earn his way back to Mount Olympus. Along the way he falls for the wry Megara, unaware she is bound to Hades, who is plotting to overthrow Zeus and rule the cosmos.
