Zeus, played by Anthony Quinn
King of the Gods and father of Hercules, Zeus has always been a fan of the fairer sex and his infidelity with Alcmene resulted in Hercules. Hera hates both Hercules and Zeus because of this and Zeus is constantly trying to stay on her good side and will rarely aid Hercules against her, although he has put his protection on Hercules so the other gods cannot harm him. Zeus' relationship with his son is strained, but deep down he cares for him and will go out of his way to help Hercules if he really must, even if that means angering Hera.
(Also played by Peter Vere-Jones, Roy Dotrice, and Charles Keating) |
