Making of Disney Hercules Musical Aboard Disney Destiny
From early rehearsals in Toronto to finalising costume and set design on the high seas, and finally to Port Everglades for the first performance in front of guests. The behind-the-scenes documentary gives fans an exclusive look at how Disney magic comes to life.
Meet the incredible cast, visionary directors, puppeteers, talented producers, and skilled stage technicians who bring this experience to the stage.
Disney Hercules Stage Show
This is Disney Cruise Line’s second Hercules show. Hercules: The Muse-ical was performed on the Disney Magic and Disney Wonder ships, but retired in 2008. The former show was a more comedic “Vaudevillian” take on the animated classic while the new show follows the film’s story more closely.

Disney Destiny
November 10 marked the christening of the Disney Destiny with a drone projection show. Susan Egan, the voice of Megara from Hercules, is the godmother of the Heroes and Villains-themed ship.
Themed spaces aboard the Destiny include Doctor Strange-inspired The Sanctum lounge, Pirates of the Caribbean-inspired Cask & Cannon bar, De Vil’s piano bar, the Pride Lands: Feast of the Lion King restaurant, and a Wakandan Grand Hall with a Black Panther statue. Spider-Man is the stern character.
The ship’s maiden voyage begins on November 20, followed by an inaugural season of four- and five-night cruises to the Bahamas and Western Caribbean from Port Everglades.
