Based on Disney Hyperion’s bestselling book series by awardwinning author Rick Riordan, "Percy Jackson and the Olympians" follows Percy Jackson (Walker Scobell) on a dangerous quest. Outrunning monsters and outwitting gods, he must journey across America to return Zeus’ master bolt and stop an allout war. After losing his mother, Percy is sheltered at Camp HalfBlood, a sanctuary for demigod children. He must prove himself and confront his origins once he discovers he too is a demigod, and will take off into the perils of pursuing enemies in search of the Underworld. With the help of his quest mates Annabeth (Leah Sava Jeffries) and Grover (Aryan Simhadri), Percy’s journey will lead him closer to the answers he seeks: how to fit into a world where he feels out of place, if he'll ever see his mother again, and if he can ever find out who he’s destined to be.

The original series will premiere on Disney+ with two episodes on December 20, followed by new episodes weekly.
