Synopsis

More than a man. Less than a God. Everything you've ever heard about history's mightiest hero is only a myth. The son of Zeus was robbed of his divine birthright when he was stolen from his cradle by the evil Hades and fed a potion that made him mortal. Now, armed with only his great strength and his trusty flying horse Pegasus, the handsome hunk who put the "glad" in "gladiator" must prove himself worthy of regaining his rightful place on Mount Olympus.
