Disney’s Hercules is going to be inspired by TikTok according to the producers of the project. Joe and Anthony Russo are on deck to deliver the latest live-action Disney adaptation. Variety spoke to the directors about their approach and what they said sent social media into a tailspin.

“a little bit more experimental in tone, a little bit more experimental in execution,” Russo began. “I think they’re excited to see what we can all bring to it in a way that isn’t just a reinterpretation of the animated film. Guy is perfect for it because he has penchant for experimentation.”
“There are questions about how you translate it as a musical,” Russo added. “Audiences today have been trained by TikTok, right?
