MoviePeek Greek gods. Cyberpunk cities. And way too much drama.
Neon Gods is Prime Video’s wild new series that reimagines ancient mythology in a futuristic dystopia. Zeus is a corrupt CEO. Athena is a hacker. Hades runs the underworld — literally, a digital black market.
Starring Hunter Schafer, Manny Jacinto, and Oscar Isaac, the show is dripping in neon, betrayal, and bisexual energy. Think Euphoria meets Blade Runner with a dash of Percy Jackson — but make it adult.
Why it’s trending: Gen Z loves mythology, chaos, and aesthetic. TikTok edits of Athena’s fight scenes are viral. Fan art is everywhere. And the show’s queer representation is being praised across the board.
The writing is sharp, the visuals are stunning, and the drama is deliciously over-the-top. It’s messy, mythic, and magnetic. It’s the kind of show you binge, tweet about, and then rewatch for the vibes.
Final Take: Neon Gods is the mythology reboot we didn’t know we needed. It’s chaotic, queer, and completely addictive.
