Hercules premiered on this day in 1997. 19 years ago. Time flies. Released in 1997, Disney’s animated musical Hercules follows the son of Zeus who is stripped of his immortality as an infant by the villainous Hades and forced to live on Earth as a mortal. To reclaim his rightful place among the gods on Mount Olympus, the awkwardly powerful teen must train with a cynical satyr to become a true hero and discover that strength comes from the heart, not just physical might. #hercules #aladdin #lionking #mulan #toystory
