The Trials of Apollo - The Hidden Oracle

Disney+ Original Series

Apollo, the Greek god of archery, poetry, and healing (among others), wakes up falling through the air and crash lands in a dumpster in Manhattan, having little to no memory of what happened to him. All he remembers is that his father, Zeus, is enraged at him for succumbing to vanity and flattery by his legacy, Octavian, thus fueling the Second Giant War; he has been punished by being turned into a mortal. After checking his wallet, he sees a New York State junior driver’s license and learns that he is now a curly-haired, flabby sixteen year-old human whose name is Lester Papadopoulos. Apollo is disgusted, but reassures himself, thinking that he must have retained some of his godly abilities. Once he is out of the dumpster, he is confronted by two thugs—Cade and Mikey—who say they were sent by their boss. They demand he gives them his wallet and all his money. Apollo attempts to fight back using his godly powers, which doesn't work, and gets knocked back to the ground. Cade and Mikey 'stomp' Apollo, leaving him badly injured.
