The world of Greek mythology has found new life in the animated seriesBlood of Zeus, with its blend of ancient lore and original storytelling. As the show’s second season comes to a close, fans are left eagerly anticipating what’s next for their favorite characters. However, one character in particular stands out as a beacon of potential for the series’ future, Seraphim, the complex anti-hero voiced by Elias Toufexis.
Initially, he was introduced as a formidable antagonist. But his journey from villain to a morally conflicted co-lead has not only added depth to the show’s narrative but also opened up a wealth of storytelling possibilities.
From Antagonist to Complex Co-Lead in Blood of Zeus
In an exclusive interview byButwhytho?, Elias Toufexis shed light on Seraphim’s character arc, describing a journey that is far from complete. The ongoing evolution suggests that his story is potentially serving as a cornerstone for future seasons or even a spin-off series.
He revealed:
His redemption arc is there but it’s not complete by the end of the show. [And it] may never be actually fully complete – he has a lot more to go…Even though he does take giant steps—No pun intended.

The second season saw Seraphim’s transition from antagonist to co-lead, a shift that allowed for a deeper exploration of his complexities.Toufexis emphasizedthe character’s growth, noting that while he is on a path to redemption, he remains true to his core nature. This delicate balance of change and consistency provides a rich foundation for continued character development.
Untapped Potential with Mythological Depth
Blood of Zeushas demonstrated its ability to weave original characters seamlessly into the shade of Greek mythology. Seraphim, as one of these original characters, offers a unique opportunity to explore uncharted territories within this mythological landscape. His connection to themortal world and the realm of godsprovides numerous storytelling possibilities.
Toufexis hinted at the vast potential still untapped in Seraphim’s character. The depth of character, combined with the show’s creative reimagining of Greek myths, could easily sustain multiple seasons.
He stated:
I just think of Seraphim. I hope that people get really interested in what they’re trying to do with him, and by the end of the season, they go, There’s a lot more to come with this guy.
With his journey far from over and the rich mythological world ofBlood of Zeusstill ripe for extension, it seems likely that the series could extend well beyond a third season. In any way, his character’s depth andevolving narrative promiseto keep fans engaged for years to come. As Toufexis aptly put it, “We have more stories because we have so much more to tell.“
