A Tale of Hercules and the Amazon Women
71It was the 1990s and Universal had an opportunity to provide content for a new wheel on syndicated television. One of the proposed franchises was another incarnation of the Son of Zeus, Hercules. Attracting the services of Sam Raimi and Robert Tapert, it was decided to present Herc as an all-American hero more suitable for audiences at the time. With Kevin Sorbo cast as the new hero, Renaissance Pictures set to work on the first of many Legendary Journeys. My name is Aaron, and today we look back at the first of five television films from 1994 on Universal's Action Pack featuring the Son of Zeus. This is A Tale of Hercules and the Amazon Women.
