Go in from here and this series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens
Percy Jackson and the Olympians is an American fantasy adventure television series created by Rick Riordan and Jonathan E. Steinberg for streaming service Disney+, based on the book series of the same name by Riordan. Walker Scobell stars as the title character, alongside Leah Sava Jeffries as Annabeth Chase and Aryan Simhadri as Grover Underwood. Development on the series began in May 2020, following a pitch by Riordan to Disney Branded Television. Jonathan E. Steinberg and Dan Shotz were announced as showrunners in July 2021, with James Bobin hired to direct the first episode in October. Scobell was cast in the lead role in January 2022, with Jeffries and Simhadri joining the cast in May. Filming takes place in Vancouver, British Columbia. The first season of Percy Jackson and the Olympians, based on the first book in the series The Lightning Thief, premiered on December 19, 2023, with eight episodes releasing through January 30, 2024. The series was renewed for a second season in February 2024, based on the second book, The Sea of Monsters. The second season premiered on December 10, 2025, with its first two episodes on both Disney+ and Hulu. In March 2025, ahead of the second season premiere, the series was renewed for a third season, which is set to adapt the third book, The Titan's Curse. The series has received positive reviews from critics, with praise towards its worldbuilding, faithfulness to the source material, and performances (particularly those of Scobell, Jeffries, Simhadri, and Charlie Bushnell). It has received multiple accolades, including eight of the sixteen Children's and Family Emmy Awards for which it was nominated, and Outstanding Young Teen Series and awards for writing and directing.
