Rise of Zeus
A father devours his children to keep his throne, but one infant escapes.
Warned that his own child will overthrow him, the Titan king Cronus swallows each of his newborns whole. When Rhea hides the infant Zeus in a Cretan cave and feeds her husband a swaddled stone, the prophecy is set in motion. The hidden god comes of age, frees his swallowed siblings, and rises to challenge the rule of the Titans.
