When it was announced that the Hercules movie project was in development, it was announced that the leaders of the Avengers: Endgame movie project, brothers Joe and Anthony Russo, will become the producers of Hercules, and the director will be Guy Ritchie.

In an interview, while telling how he ended up in the film project “Hercules”, Anthony said that he and Joe have always been fans of this film.

“We heard that Disney is interested in making a movie of the animated project, which we love. That’s why we showed why we were the right ones to make this film,” said Russo.

And Joe said that when it comes to the films that have been animated so far, they should bring something new to the viewer.

“We should not do them as literal translations. Because if you like that story, you read it. We will offer you another one. I think we will do something inspired by the original version, but we will also offer some new elements”, he declared.

In another interview, Russo stated that they are still waiting for the script.

“There are questions about how the film can be translated into a musical. Today’s audience is trained by TikTok or not? What are the expectations of what a movie musical should look like? That could be a lot of fun while it could help us push the boundaries a little bit versus doing a musical in a modern way,” Russo said.

Earlier there were also some rumors that actor Taron Edgarton will play the role of Hercules, while Ariana Grande will play the role of Maggie.

Lipa has appeared in a few sequences in the much talked about movie “Barbie”, in the role of a mermaid, while she also had a role in the movie “Argylle”.
