The Making of Hercules

[@NoriMori1992]

Let's give a big round of applause to Lillias White, Cheryl Freeman, LaChanze, Roz Ryan, and Vanéese Y. This movie wouldn't have been the same without the Muses.

[@hamursh]

@Authentic Love Designs Although they COULD have gotten En Vogue but they were busy and they wanted to get the Spice Girls but THEY were too busy and that would date the movie instantly!

[@sofiaxart]

Awww, my animation professor designed and made the Muses come to life :') this would mean a lot to him. Fun fact, did you know that originally, the muses were just supposed to do the From Zero to Hero song, but eventually got added to the whole movie :)

They’ve got to reunite for an album of their own soon. Maybe to popular Disney songs

[@mattjindrak]

Let's not

[@catgoesmewow7389]

The songs in this movie are amazing! I beyond love this movie

[@mauricortez702]

CatGoesMeWOW rite

[@MrGabeanator]

me too

[@MrRock975]

I'm a cartoonist, and I remember when I rented the movie on blockbuster and saw this stuff in the special features. It was my first approach to the world of animation ❤

[@p5rsona]

I'm 30 years old, but ever since watching it when 9, I still watch it every year and listen to the soundtrack. It's one of my fav movies and definitely fav Disney movie. Love the characters, story, art, music

[@wesleywilliamson8427]

Me too. My favorite song is Go The Distance. My top 10 Disney songs

[@manuelorozco7760]

I’m 29 and last year was the first time since 2008 that I’ve watched Hercules. And it hasn’t aged badly for something I used to watch a lot

[@kyrillpanasenko881]

i was 8 when it came out. disappointed by how much the story was changed. as far as adaptations of famous simple european stories for chidlren, this reached a new low

[@brittney5859]

This looks so damn vintage yet I was freaking 4 when Hercules came out.....I remember seeing commercials for it.

[@mauricortez702]

Brittney lol

[@cutekitty1212]

Yeah early 2000's stuff feels vintage/nostalgic, I think it's the look of the video.

[@julianrender8212]

Me too

[@histomuzik]

@@cutekitty1212 this movie was released in 1997 and was being made mostly during 1996

[@manuelorozco7760]

I was 4 too. The first time I heard the name Hercules was the Toy Story VHS

[@Abelhawk]

It’s weird to me how old fashioned the live action clips look but the cartoon itself is timeless.

[@scoutart1508]

actually, the live action are quite timeless as well when it comes accurate hand drawn collaboration in modern times when not necessarily using much digital elements, no?

[@NoriMori1992]

I find it interesting that they used two different actors for young and adult Hercules, because they sound more similar than, for example, Yami and Yugi Moto in _Yu-Gi-Oh!,_ who are voiced by the same person in English.

[@carschmn]

This is so old Paul Shaffer has hair. I like these behind the scenes videos because they give props to people you wouldn’t normally see.

[@celinejahaa]

This movie is soooo underrated. I love it so much it's my favourite, plus it has the best soundtrack

[@peachytheii202]

Young Hercules actor was fineeee

[@manuelorozco7760]

I find this in my recommendation feed. Seeing all these drawings and voice work put into a movie makes me 5 years old again watching Hercules on VHS. And yet, I never seen this video until now. Love DeVito sporting the Matilda cap. Rest In Peace Mark Elliot

[@stephj505]

Fun fact: Hades almost wasn't going to be the villain. Originally it was going to be Hera just like in the real mythology. But the creators eventually decided to change it because the story would have been too similar to Snow White.

[@lordsei9391]

the muses were such an amazing and underrated characters. Their voices, the vibes, and the energy they give in their songs are fucking amazing

It's so freaky hearing Mark Elliott's calm Disney voice mention pink Floyd's The Wall. It's such a 180° turn.

Unpopular opinion, but I just though the animation of Hercules was a huge step down especially after Hunchback and even Pocahontas. Still a great movie with songs as good as the Menken/Ashman renaissance era.
