Disney's animated classic HERCULES, from the creators of ALADDIN and THE LITTLE MERMAID, offers a mighty fun time. Nominated for an Academy Award(R) (Best Music, Original Song, "Go The Distance," 1997), this legendary family favorite is packed with colossal laughs and nonstop adventure. Hercules, taken from the gods as a newborn and adopted on Earth, is just an awkward pillar of strength trying to fit in. What he wants most is to impress his father Zeus. When Hercules discovers Hades' sinister plot to take over Mount Olympus, he goes from zero to hero and, with the help of his pals Pegasus and Phil, discovers that real strength comes from the heart!
To assist with character design, British artist/political cartoonist Gerald Scarfe was brought in and remained involved as an ongoing artistic advisor to the animators. In the summer of 1994, a field trip to Greece and Turkey gave artists a firsthand look at landscapes and ancient sites, as well as an opportunity to hear expert accounts of classic Greek mythology. Animation began in early 1995, and eventually a team of nearly 700 artists was involved with the project. HERCULES also features the first use of morphing in the animation process.
The film's rich tapestry of Greek mythology, combined with its heartwarming story and memorable characters, has cemented HERCULES' status as a beloved Disney classic. Hercules' journey of self-discovery, as he navigates the challenges of his divine heritage and learns to harness his incredible strength for good, resonates with audiences of all ages. The film's vibrant animation, catchy musical numbers, and comedic moments provide endless entertainment, while its themes of family, friendship, and personal growth offer meaningful depth.
HERCULES stands out as a shining example of Disney's mastery of storytelling and animation. The collaboration between the film's talented team of artists, animators, and storytellers resulted in a timeless masterpiece that continues to captivate and inspire viewers. From the breathtaking visuals to the endearing performances of the voice cast, HERCULES is a true cinematic triumph that has solidified its place in the hearts of generations of Disney fans.
