After teasing the new season ofBlood of Zeusduringtheir fan event Geeked Week, Netflix decided to throw a bone to thefans of the anime seriesand unveil a sneak peek clip from the new season. In the clip, Heron (voiced byDerek Phillips) comes to a shocking realization: Gods are not much better than humans, and can be even more flawed than all of us. The streamer also revealed when we can expect to watch Season 2:It will drop on the platform on May 15,2024.
As the sneak peek shows, Heron’s turning point comes after the tragic events of Season 1, during which the titan feeders who earned agreat and cursed powerwreaked havoc across Greece, tearing apart whoever stood in their way. It got personal after Seraphim (Elias Toufexis) and others targeted people close to Heron, and now the demigod has a vendetta against any super-powered being.
However, it’s clear that Season 2 will show a conflicted Heron since he can’t stop thinking about Seraphim’s proposition ofjoining the monster hordes andwaging war on the Greek gods. He can’t help but agree that the gods’ disregard for the human race claims innocent lives on a regular basis. This anger seems to havefueled Heron’s ultimate power, which leads to his first act of rebellion – ignoring a call from the fates.
