What is Percy Jackson about?
Set in a world where the Greek gods exist in the modern day, the series follows Percy Jackson, a young demigod, and his friends as they battle to stop the rise of the Titans.
The upcoming second season, which wrapped filming earlier this year, is expected to stream in 2025. It will adapt The Sea of Monsters, the second book in Riordan’s fantasy series. The newly announced third season will adapt The Titan’s Curse.
