Demigods, it’s time to complete the prophecy and return to Camp Half Blood again. That’s right, The Oracle and the Greek Gods have officially announced when Season 2 of the hit TV show adaptation Percy Jackson and the Olympians is going to be available to stream, and have even released some photos of the main cast members like Walker Scobell as Percy Jackson, and Leah Sava Jeffries as Annabeth Chase. Scroll on to see them and learn more about when the Disney+ show will release and what the plot is expected to be. 

What ‘Percy Jackson’ Season 2 will be about

Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 2 was announced in 2024, just a few months after the first season came out. It is expected to follow the second book in author Rick Riordan’s best-selling series, The Sea of Monsters. 

In the novel, Percy Jackson (played by Scobell) travels to Circe’s island with his friend Annabeth Chase (played by Jeffries) to try and procure the legendary Golden Fleece in the hopes that it will save both Camp Half Blood and the magical tree that protects it. Elsewhere, the now villainous Luke Castellan (played by Charlie Bushnell) works to revive the titan Kronos, and Grover Underwood (Aryan Simhadri) goes mysteriously missing, all of which are featured in the trailer below! 

“This season has a lot more action than last season for sure,” Scobell, age 16, said, per TV Insider. “I feel like last season was very much like, we would stay in one place and have a conversation and then there’d be an action sequence, you know what I mean? It was awesome. But this season, the stakes are higher for our characters, so it almost feels like there’s never a place where we just stop and talk. We’re almost always doing something, which I think fits this book perfectly. There’s just so much at stake for our characters.”

The actor could be referring to the book’s chariot race, Cyclops’ fight or his character being turned into a gerbil, but only time will tell.  

This will be the second time the book has been adapted, as it was made into a film in 2013, which starred Logan Lerman as Percy Jackson, Brandon T. Jackson as Grover Underwood and Alexandra Daddario as Annabeth Chase. 

Who’s in the ‘Percy Jackson’ Season 2 cast? 

Along with Scobell, Jeffries, Bushnell and Simhadri Dior Goodjohn (who plays Clarisse La Rue), Virginia Kull (who plays Sally Jackson), Glynn Turman (who plays Chiron/Mr. Brunner), Jason Mantzoukas (who plays Dionysus/Mr.D), Toby Stephens (who plays Poseidon) and Lin Manuel Miranda (who plays Hermes) are expected to return. 

They will be joined by Tamara Smart (who will play Thalia Grace), Daniel Diemer (who will play Tyson), Andra Day (who will play Athena) and Timothy Simons  (who will play Tantalus). Courtney B. Vance is also expected to appear, as he will take over the role of Zeus from Lance Reddick, who tragically passed away in 2023 at the age of 60. 

“There’s also just a little bit of denial, I think. That’s something that we’re gonna have to deal with. But we’re incredibly grateful for this character that he helped build and the presence that he created,” executive producer Jon Steinberg said in February 2024, per Deadline. I do not envy whoever has to step into his shoes.”

When does ‘Percy Jackson’ Season 2 come out? 

Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 2 is expected to release on Disney+ on December 10, 2025.  As of publication, there is no news on whether episodes will be released one by one like Season 1 was. 

Is ‘Percy Jackson’ getting a Season 3?

Following that, Disney announced that the show will be returning for a third season, which will be based on book three, The Titan’s Curse. It will be the first time that the novel has been adapted and will introduce viewers to Nico D’Angelo, who will be played by Levi Chrisopulos and his sister Bianca D’Angelo, who will be played by Olive Abercrombie. 

“We’re so grateful to be continuing the story of Percy Jackson on Disney+. This third season will be new territory for the screen, bringing fan favorites like the Hunters of Artemis and Nico di Angelo to life for the first time,” Riordan, the author,  wrote on his website. “It’s a huge sign of commitment from Disney, and speaks volumes about the enthusiasm with which the fandom has embraced the TV show. Thank you, demigods worldwide!”

It is expected to start filming in July of this year, with Scobell musing it “probably will be my favorite season to shoot,” per J-14.
