Spoilers ahead

Ten years after his victory over the Kraken, Perseus (Sam Worthington), the demigod offspring of Zeus (Liam Neeson), has settled into a peaceful life as a fisherman alongside his ten-year-old son, Helius. This tranquil existence is marred by the grief of losing Io, his beloved wife. One fateful night, Zeus pays a visit to Perseus and reveals that the divine powers are diminishing significantly, leading to a catastrophic weakening of the gods. The prison walls of Tartarus, where evil is contained, are beginning to crumble due to humanity’s waning faith. Despite Zeus’ desperate plea for assistance, Perseus shows little interest in getting drawn back into the battles of the gods.
