A Percy Jackson and the Olympians television series is on the way!
The new adaptation was first announced to be in the works back in May 2020, with author Rick Riordan and wife Becky being very directly involved this time around, and it was officially ordered to series at Disney+ in early 2022.
Rick co-wrote the pilot and is executive producing the entire series, having a hand in the entire show, ensuring that it is a more accurate adaptation of the books, unlike the movies, which he has slammed in the past.
The upcoming series, of course, tells the fantastical story of a 12-year-old modern demigod, Percy Jackson, who’s just coming to terms with his newfound divine powers when the sky god Zeus accuses him of stealing his master lightning bolt. With help from his friends Grover and Annabeth, Percy must embark on an adventure of a lifetime to find it and restore order to Olympus.
Filming on the Percy Jackson and the Olympians wrapped filming in February 2023, and while we don’t have a release date yet (likely not until 2024!), we do know who will be playing all of the central characters.
