HERACLES: THE IMMORTAL HERO (2028-2038)

HBO Max Original Series

HERACLES: THE IMMORTAL HERO chronicles the extraordinary journey of Heracles, the greatest hero of Greek mythology. Born of Zeus and the mortal Alcmene, Heracles is marked from infancy by divine strength and a destiny shaped by the jealous wrath of Hera. The series traces his life from miraculous birth, through the trauma of madness and the infamous Twelve Labors, to his wanderings, tragic death, and final ascension as an immortal Olympian. Set in a visually rich Bronze Age Greece, the show explores themes of fate versus free will, the burden of power, redemption through suffering, and the struggle between mortal and divine natures. Each season unfolds a new chapter of Heracles’ life, building toward his ultimate apotheosis and reconciliation with the gods.
