The Percy Jackson and the Olympians series hits Disney+ soon. We’ve got all the information about the release schedule for each episode.
Percy Jackson and the Olympians is based on the popular book series of the same name by Rick Riordan. All of us ancient Greek mythology geeks are super excited about this series. The story begins when 12-year-old Perseus “Percy” Jackson (Walker Scobell) finds out he is half-god and half-human. His human mother had kept from him that his dad was the ancient god of the sea, Poseidon. Percy goes to Camp Half-Blood, a place for demigods like himself to train and master their potential. Things go sideways when Zeus’s thunderbolt goes missing, and Percy must find the real thief and the bolt to clear his name.
The Disney+ series is supposed to be a close adaptation of the books. So far, the series has only officially been greenlit for one season. However, if it is successful, that would pave the way for the other five books to be adapted in the future.
