Who is the best actor to play the new Hercules?

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT It has been announced that a live-action version of Disney's Hercules will be hitting cinemas in the future, but it will be important that the right actor is cast as the titular character. Hercules was released in 1997 and had a stellar voice cast, including Tate Donovan as Hercules and Danny DeVito as Phil.

Hemsworth hasn't had any musical roles, per se, he has proved that he wasn't afraid to sing when needed. In a behind-the-scenes clip from The Avengers: End Game, during an interview with Jimmy Fallon, Hemsworth was shown singing "Hurt" by Johnny Cash. Although this clip was not a serious attempt at singing, at least in the context of a movie, it confirmed that the actor can carry a tune well.

8 Taron Egerton Relevant Role: Eggsy In The Kingsman Franchise Close British actor Taron Egerton's breakthrough role was as Eggsy in Kingsman: The Secret Service and Kingsman: The Golden Circle. Eggsy allowed Egerton to show off his acting range brilliantly, especially because he jumped between being comical to deadly serious so well.

Efron has also proven his comedic skills to be brilliant, especially in films like Neighbors and The Iron Claw. The actor's career started on the West End as the titular character in Billy Elliott the Musical, which allowed Holland to show off his great singing and dancing abilities. Holland also famously performed "Singin' in the Rain" on Lip Sync Battle, another example of his impressive talents. Both on-screen in character, as well as in interviews, Holland's quirky mannerisms and cheeky personality have shone, which could be very helpful in playing Hercules.

4 Austin Butler Relevant Role: Elvis Presley In Elvis Close Austin Butler made his first on-screen appearance in Zoey 101 as a teenager. His career then skyrocketed when he starred in the TV dramas Switched at Birth and The Carrie Diaries, as well as the High School Musical spinoff film Sharpay's Fabulous Adventure. However, Butler gained wider recognition worldwide when he portrayed Elvis Presley in the 2022 film Elvis.

For the role of Orpheus, Page was required to sing in the Greek language, which he did an amazing job with.
