Immortals tells the story of Theseus, a humble stonemason chosen by the gods to stand against the destructive ambitions of King Hyperion. Living in a time when humanity suffers under constant fear, Theseus is raised by his mother in a remote village, unaware that he is being watched by Zeus in disguise. The king of the gods believes that Theseus has the potential to defend mankind, but according to divine law, the gods cannot interfere directly unless the Titans are released. This rule sets the stage for the central conflict, as Hyperion seeks the legendary Epirus Bow—a powerful weapon capable of freeing the Titans and plunging the world into chaos.
When Hyperion’s army invades Theseus’s village, his mother is brutally killed, leaving him grief-stricken and consumed by a desire for vengeance. Captured and enslaved, Theseus crosses paths with Phaedra, a virgin oracle who possesses visions of the future. She senses destiny surrounding him and helps orchestrate his escape. Their journey becomes both physical and spiritual, as Theseus learns to embrace the strength within him. Meanwhile, Phaedra’s visions guide them toward stopping Hyperion before he can unleash the Titans.
As Theseus gathers a small band of followers, he discovers the Epirus Bow hidden within a secret mountain chamber. Yet his victory is short-lived when Hyperion ambushes them and steals the bow, shifting the balance of power dramatically. The loss forces Theseus to understand that destiny alone cannot secure victory—he must rise beyond his grief and become the leader humanity needs. This turning point marks his transformation from a mere villager into a warrior with purpose.
Throughout the journey, the gods watch helplessly as Hyperion’s forces grow stronger. Zeus continues to believe in Theseus, but his patience is tested when other gods wish to intervene. Their restraint highlights a key theme of the film—the contrast between divine power and human responsibility. The tension between the gods’ desire to protect humanity and their duty to remain uninvolved adds layers of moral complexity to the unfolding conflict.
The climax arrives when Hyperion reaches Mount Tartarus and uses the Epirus Bow to free the Titans. Faced with an army of immortal monsters, Zeus and the other gods finally intervene, engaging in a brutal battle that shakes the heavens. Meanwhile, Theseus confronts Hyperion in a fierce duel fueled by loss and justice. Though mortally wounded, Theseus succeeds in killing Hyperion, proving that human courage can rival even divine power.
In the final moments, Theseus is honored by the gods and ascends to a heroic place among them, symbolizing the eternal legacy of sacrifice. The film ends with a vision of his future son standing ready for the battles to come, reminding viewers that heroism endures beyond a single lifetime. Immortals blends mythology, action, and destiny into a story of bravery forged in the face of overwhelming darkness.
