Megara, also known as Meg, is a fictional character who appears in the Walt Disney Pictures 35th animated film Hercules (1997). Voiced by actress Susan Egan, Meg is introduced as a cynical young woman enslaved by Hades, god of the underworld. Hades forces Meg to uncover Hercules' weaknesses by seducing him in return for her freedom, only to develop genuine feelings for the character instead. Loosely based on Megara and Deianira, Hercules' first and second wives in Greek mythology, directors Ron Clements and John Musker adapted Meg into a morally conflicted con artist, while basing her role and personality on 1940s screwball comediennes, particularly actress Barbara Stanwyck's performance in The Lady Eve (1941).

  • Megara, detta Meg, è un personaggio immaginario e la co-protagonista del Classico Disney Hercules. Liberamente basata su Megara e Deianira, la prima e la seconda moglie di Hercules nella mitologia greca, i registi Ron Clements e John Musker hanno adattato Meg in un'artista della truffa moralmente conflittuale, basando il suo ruolo e la sua personalità sulle commedie del 1940, in particolare la performance dell'attrice Barbara Stanwyck in Lady Eva (1941).
