Rick Riordan has long been teasing his approved adaptation of his popular Percy Jackson books, and we’re finally coming close to seeing the Disney+ series!! The streaming service announced the release date of Percy Jackson and the Olympians in the first trailer for the show along with a teaser for the late Lance Reddick’s role of Zeus.
The trailer (which you can watch above) revealed that Percy Jackson and the Olympians is premiering earlier than we thought, on December 20, 2023. The series was originally expected for early 2024, but Disney+ upped the release date. The 30-second teaser shows some brief images of some of the characters and monsters, and I got major chills over Lance Reddick capping it all off when his voice can be heard uttering the words: “Percy Jackson, we’ve been expecting you” in the final shot of the whole thing.
