Trailer: Netflix Dates Blood of Zeus From The Same Studio That Brought You Castlevania

Marketing keeps going back and forth on the name which just seems to be the latest misstep on titles produced by Powerhouse Animation, but we can tell you that Blood of Zeus (the series formerly known as Gods & Heroes), the new original series from the Texas-based studio is set to release October 27th only on Netflix.

The series tells the story of a young man who, cast aside by his people, learns that he is the illegitimate son of Zeus. He alone can save both Heaven and Earth but to do so he must survive the vengeful wrath of a goddess who wants him dead and the monstrous forces of evil she aligns against him.

Jason O’Mara (Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.), Mamie Gummer (True Detective), Derek Phillips (Friday Night Lights), Chris Diamantopoulos (Silicon Valley), Jessica Henwick (Luke Cage), Melina Kanakaredes (The Resident), Claudia Christian (Babylon 5), and Elias Toufexis (The Expanse) will all voice characters in the series.

Shaunt Nigoghossian (Justice League Action, Transformers Prime) will direct the series, which hails from Charley and Vlas Parlapanides (Immortals, Death Note), who will serve as creators, writers and executive producers. Powerhouse Animation, the studio behind two Netflix series, Castlevania and Seis Manos, are leading animation development and creation for Blood of Zeus.
