Mythical Creature Designs For Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's HERCULES
Concept Artist Andrew Baker ("The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug") updated his blog with concept art he created for the mythical creatures in Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's Hercules.
In Brett Ratner's Hercules we see many mythological creatures that Hercules (Dwayne Johnson) battles. Three of them, Lernaean Hydra (multiple-headed water serpent), Cerberus (three-headed hellhound) and Erymanthian Boar (a big boar), are featured in the concept art below that concept artist Andrew Baker did for the visual effects company, WETA. As you can see there are several variations of each.

Everyone knows the legend of Hercules and his twelve labors. Our story begins after the labors, and after the legend. Haunted by a sin from his past, Hercules has become a mercenary. Along with five faithful companions, he travels ancient Greece selling his services for gold and using his legendary reputation to intimidate enemies. But when the benevolent ruler of Thrace and his daughter seek Hercules’ help to defeat a savage and terrifying warlord, Hercules finds that in order for good to triumph and justice to prevail… he must again become the hero he once was… he must embrace his own myth… he must be Hercules.
