The First “Percy Jackson And The Olympians” Trailer Is Finally Here, And Percy, Annabeth, And Grover Look Perfect

When I say 2023 has been filled with amazing TV shows (and performances) so far, I mean it. There are so many good shows returning and premiering this year, and one of the ones I’ve been waiting patiently for is Percy Jackson and the Olympians.

Disney+, Miramax Books / Puffin Books / Disney-Hyperion

Previously, Logan Lerman, Brandon T. Jackson, and Alexandra Daddario starred in two films based on the first two novels in the series in 2010 and 2013, respectively. The films notably received mixed reviews — The Lightning Thief holds a 49% on Rotten Tomatoes — with fans of the book series clamoring for a new adaptation for years.

This time around, Walker Scobell, who notably starred alongside Ryan Reynolds in The Adam Project, will take on the role of Percy Jackson alongside Leah Sava Jeffries and Aryan Simhadri as Annabeth and Grover, all of whom are front and center in the first teaser trailer.

Percy on THE ELEVATOR TO OLYMPUS. Grover in his Camp Half-Blood shirt. I’m so emotional.

The trio will be joined by a stacked list of guest stars, who will help portray some of the notable gods and characters from Riordan’s universe. Some of whom include Lin-Manuel Miranda as Hermes, Megan Mullally as Alecto, Toby Stephens as Poseidon, Jason Mantzoukas as Dionysus, Jay Duplass as Hades, and Timothy Omundson as Hephaestus.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians will also mark the final TV appearance for the legendary Lance Reddick, who died suddenly in March 2023. Lance plays Zeus, and you can hear his iconic voice in this first teaser trailer.

The series will debut on Disney+ on Dec. 20, 2023 with two episodes followed by new episodes weekly. These first two episodes are written by Riordan and Steinberg, and directed by James Bobin.
