Hercules is the titular protagonist of the Hercules franchise.
He is son of Zeus and Hera , Hercules was abducted from his on Mount Olympus and turned mortal by his evil uncle Hades, though he maintained his superhuman strength. Along with Pegasus and Philoctetes , Hercules set out on a journey of self-discovery and acceptance to prove himself a true hero and reclaim his place among the gods.
Despite his incomparable power and fame throughout Ancient Greece, Hercules initially believed being a hero would simply be battling monsters and rescuing damsels. It wouldn't be until his chance encounter with the femme fatale Megara that Hercules would come to understand the true measure of a hero.
