This animated feature brings to live the story of Hercules (Tate Donovan), the son of Zeus (Rip Torn) and Hera who is sent to earth as a mortal when he is just an infant by the bumbling sidekicks of Hades (James Woods). Proficies surround the child that Hades must keep from occuring in order to take over the world as he desires. As Hercules grows, he learns who his true parents are and strives to become a god so that he can be with them again. The only way to become a god is to be a hero. Hercules sets about on his quest to become a hero and be reunited with his true parents with Hades nipping at his heels and tossing obstacles in his path. Becomming a hero isn't the easy task Hercules hopes for.
