New Details About 'Hercules' Live-Action Movie Cause Backlash on Social Media
Producer Joe Russo told Variety in a new interview that the new Hercules will be “a little bit more experimental in tone, a little bit more experimental in execution.”
“I think they’re excited to see what we can all bring to it in a way that isn’t just a reinterpretation of the animated film,” he said.
“Guy is perfect for it because he has penchant for experimentation,” Joe said, confirming that the live-action will also be a musical.
“There are questions about how you translate it as a musical,” he went on to say, confirming that TikTok is a source of inspiration.
“Audiences today have been trained by TikTok, right? What is their expectation of what that musical looks like and feels like? That can be a lot of fun and help us push the boundaries a little bit on how you execute a modern musical.”
Danny DeVito has also weighed in on the planned, live action movie of Hercules.

"Audiences today have been trained by TikTok" sounds like the premise of a horror film. https://t.co/TZ50XpuI8Q
