Summary. Hercules, played by Brett Goldstein, made a brief debut in the MCU and may have a bigger role in Thor 5 if the film moves forward. Marvel Studios' Director of Visual Development, Andy Park, shared concept art on Instagram, giving fans a detailed look at Hercules in Thor: Love and Thunder.
One of the breakout stars of Apple TV+'s Ted Lasso, the Brit is perhaps best known for playing gruff footballer Roy Kent. Prior to Ted Lasso, the actor appeared in a handful of British comedies, including Ricky Gervais' Derek, as well as on an episode of Doctor Who.
Writers often take artistic licenses when dealing with Hercules' strength, as Stan Lee himself pointed out at one time. However, it is undeniable that Hercules has bested both Thor and Hulk, proving he is indeed the strongest Avenger.

Can Hercules beat Thor?
The Olympian and the Asgardian are evenly matched in terms of both strength and durability. For comparison, both Thor and Hercules' durability and raw power pale in comparison to the likes of Zeus - a low-key but crucial Thor: Love and Thunder spoiler for any future outings of the Olympians.
They both realized far too late what had actually happened. Hercules was in so much agony after he took the potion that he wished he were dead. Hercules eventually died and after he did, his mortal portion perished. Zeus took his “god” half back to Olympus where he made amends with Hera.
But in the first post-credits scene, Zeus is seen recovering and having a conversation with someone out of view who he has deemed will give him his best shot at revenge against Thor. Just who is Zeus talking to? None other than his son, Hercules, shockingly played by “Ted Lasso” star Brett Goldstein.
Across multiple comic continuities, Thor has had several daughters including Brigid Thorsdottir, Thena Thorsdóttir and Torunn Thorsdóttir, the latter recurring in many iterations. In Norse Mythology, Thor had a daughter named Thrud with Sif.
Robert Downey Jr is open to returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In an interview with Esquire, the actor said he'd happily play Tony Stark aka Iron Man in future movies if Marvel gods want him to.

It is the era of live-action adaptations and with Hercules getting the modern treatment, fans are delighted to learn that Danny DeVito will reportedly be reprising his role as Phil. Debuting in 1997, Disney's Hercules told the story of the son of Zeus who had to save Olympus from the clutches of Hades himself.
Though Jane Foster is dead, it's possible that she has a cameo in Thor 5. Valhalla was shown at the end of Thor: Love and Thunder (with Heimdall welcoming Jane), so if Thor dies, he may see her and other slain Asgardians.
Answer and Explanation: Hercules' weakness was his temper and lack of intelligence. He was notorious for getting himself into trouble because of his temper. His inclination to react instead of think also illustrated his lack of intelligence and judgment.
Heracles is assumed to be born around 1286. By contrast the Trojan War, which occured roughly 1 or 2 decades after his death, starts ~1200 B.C.E. This would mean Heracles would at least be in his 60s/70s when he died.
In a fistfight, Hercules. In a fight with weapons, Hercules. In a contest of cunning it's hard to say. Mythological Loki got himself in trouble more than he got himself out of it, and hercules has enough brains to solve several of his labors.
Hercules is very strong but that's pretty much it. While he's a demi-god, he doesn't really have a magic weapon or skill he can use beyond his strength and that's going to cost him against Superman. It's debatable whose stronger, although Superman probably has the advantage, but all Hercules can do is hit hard.
Who would win, Odin or Hercules? In Mythology , Odin would destroy Hercules . Odin was the defender , the all father of Multiple infinite realms , Had a lot of knowledge and was only second to Thor in Norse Mythology. Hercules had some superhuman strength but at the end of the day , he was nowhere near the major gods .
Hercules is stronger than Savage Hulk and he should in reality be able to knock him out before Hulk can reach thresholds high enough in strength to beat him. Hercules is also a better fighter than Hulk due to his experience having lived as long as he have being the son of Zeus.
So while Zeus' best feat is defeating a mountain-sized monster, Odin's best feat is defeating a monster as big as nine worlds. Odin outclasses Zeus in intelligence, versatility, strength, and weapons. Zeus simply can't compete. The winner is Odin, All-Father of the Æsir.
Unlike the Hulk, Hercules could have beaten an Infinity Stones-less Thanos in hand-to-hand combat relatively easily. That said, when it comes to a Thanos powered by all six Infinity Stones, Hercules might not have too much of a chance.
