Hercules teams with pal Pegasus, the flying stallion, and Phil (Danny Devito), a feisty trainer, for the mission. But it's no walk in the Acropolis. He must match wits with Grecian beauty Meg (Susan Egan) and a comical hothead name Hades (James Woods), who's having a devil of a time with his hostile takeover of the universe.

Disguising herself as a man, she secretly takes her father's place in the Imperial army that is being gathered to meet the threat of invasion by the villainous Hun leader, Shan-Yu (Miguel Ferrer). Accompanied by her feisty, fire-breathing "wanna-be" guardian dragon Mushu (Eddie Murphy), Mulan trains to be a brave and disciplined warrior and ultimately learns some profound lessons about courage, honor and love.
