The first TV spot for Renny Harlin’s The Legend of Hercules (formerly “Hercules: The Legend Begins”) is here. Revealed today by Summit Entertainment, the spot gives fans plenty to feast on as the Greco epic approaches.
The Legend of Hercules is directed by Renny Harlin (Exorcist: The Beginning, Die Hard 2) and stars Kellan Lutz as the legendary demigod of Greek mythology. In this version, the son of Zeus is betrayed by his king and sold into slavery, from which he must wage battle for the freedom to return to the woman he loves, Princess Hebe of Crete (Gaia Weiss). And if that doesn’t sound enough like Starz’s take on Spartacus to you, keep in mind that they have cast the network’s second Spartacus, Liam McIntyre in the film! Plus, they've added Game of Thrones' Roxanne McKee (the slave who "educated" Khaleesi) in it as well! Action geek icon Scott Adkins is also in attendance for the Greco throwdowns.
The Legend of Hercules truly begins on January 10, 2014.
