Hercules came at a time when blackwashing was not a big deal. It seemed kind of fitting considering the movie had 0 respect for Greek mythology and was set up like modern America with a Greek coat of paint. Hercules was not even the Greek name, it was the Roman name.
It bothered me to no end in both this and Hercules the tv show.

The Fate Franchise treats mythology and history better than Disney does. And that's saying something.
