![]() Some of Hades' most memorable lines were ad-libbed by Woods. This impressed the filmmakers so much that the character was rewritten into a comical villain with a heavy emphasis on humor. Under the belief that he wasn't right for that portrayal, Woods approached Hades casually, delivering dialogue as if he were a sleazy car salesman. ![]() As the procedure with the previous actors, Woods was asked to give a straightforward performance. The direction of the character altered greatly, however, when James Woods auditioned for the role. Like with the original Nicholson version, Hades was still portrayed in a fairly serious light during auditions. Lithgow was released from the role because the directors thought he did not work. In addition to Nicholson, Willem Dafoe, David Bowie, and John Lithgow were once considered for the role of Hades. However, Nicholson left the project because he demanded $10-$15 million, plus a 50% cut of all the proceeds from Hades merchandise, of which Disney declined. Nicholson visited the studio and met with directors John Musker and Ron Clements in 1995 to familiarize himself with the character. This early, slow-talking portrayal of the character was intended to be played by Jack Nicholson so much so, that character designer Gerald Scarfe's initial sketches of Hades bore a resemblance to Nicholson. Originally, Hades was envisioned as a more somber and dramatic villain, in a similar vein of Ursula from The Little Mermaid or Jafar from Aladdin. When angered, his hair and face become a passionate red/orange. When relaxed or upbeat, his flaming hair and skin retain a calming blue color. Hades is hot-headed, both figuratively and literally. Despite their constant colossal failures and lies, Hades seems to have a surprising amount of faith in these imps as he continuously sends them out with various missions and tasks, most of which are rather major. The two fear Hades immensely and are used as punching-bags during his outbursts, typically as punishment for their incompetence being a recurring hindrance in Hades' schemes. In the Underworld, Hades is aided by his two shapeshifting lackeys, Pain and Panic. As such, he often allies himself with various beasts and creatures lurking through Greece, hiring them to do his bidding the most notable example being the Titans, who were imprisoned by Zeus eons ago. Though powerful in his own right, Hades is considerably weaker than Zeus and cannot overthrow him alone. ![]() Because of this, Hades secretly plots to overthrow Zeus and rule Mount Olympus as the King of Deities, himself. Unbeknownst to Zeus and the other deities, however, Hades despises the Underworld, as well as his job, finding them both gloomy, depressing, and overbearing. You put in the OP for them not to bring help, pretty sure summoning other creatures counts as such.Hades was granted ownership of the Underworld by Zeus, unwillingly. Never said Grim does have a soul, just pointing it out for Hades is all. Has Hades summon other creatures than Cerberus? Grim has brought out other creatures, and he also haves Cerberus as a pet. Oh some other things for Hades, he can grow to giant size, he can grab(literally) souls of the dead. I don't think Grim can hurt or capture him and yeah he can, but he could still be taken apart and Hades could just scatter him around and could give him the win or just knock him around till he is KO'd. ![]() Grime could still hurt him or maybe even capture him.Īs for him being broken apart he has put himself back together. Plus Grim can still and has been taken apart before. He also has shown TK too and obvious fire control also some reality warping too. Hades I think does have a massive AOE advantage though considering his explosive furies has shown to obliterate large areas and so forth. I think this shows that the gods in Hercules had true immortality, even Zeus could only be imprisoned not killed in the movie. You know.I don't think Grim's sycthe would have any affect on Hades considering that Hades was punched into the River Styx and wasn't dying compared to Hercules(who was a demi-god at that point) who was and when Herc became a full god he wasn't affected by the River either.
