Percy Jackson And The Olympians Season 2 Story
Disney+'s Percy Jackson and The Olympians brings all the mythical action to life in season 1, and now it has been renewed for season 2. Based on the best-selling series of young adult novels by author Rick Riordan, the TV show follows young Percy Jackson (Walker Scobell) as he comes to grips with the revelation that he is a demi-god, and attempts to assimilate into the world of myths and legends. Noted for its close adherence to Riordan's novels, Disney+'s take on the story attempts to rectify many of the problems of the failed film series from the 2010s.
With so much care put into the first season, it comes as no surprise that Percy Jackson and The Olympians has received glowing reviews that speak to the overall quality of the production. While season 1 is still fresh in the minds of fans, speculation has begun about the future of Disney+'s latest hit, and there is plenty to work with in subsequent seasons. Percy Jackson and The Olympians season 2 seemed like a foregone conclusion for the executives at Disney+, and now that confidence is warranted by a renewal order.

Filming Begins On Season 2
As things begin to take shape on the sophom*ore season, the latest news confirms that Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2 has begun filming. The news was broken by director James Bobin and cinematographer Jules O'Loughlin who each shared posts on Instagram commemorating the occasion. Though Bobin's post is somewhat vague and features a blurry image of booted feet dancing in front of the slate, O'Loughlin's post clearly shows the slate for season 2.

Season 2 Is On The Way
As predicted, Disney+ wasted no time in renewing Percy Jackson and the Olympians for a second season, and the only surprise is that it didn't come sooner. Percy Jackson's streaming numbers were the most obvious motivator for the renewal, but the positive critical reception helped as well. Though Disney+ hasn't announced plans after season 2, fans should expect the show to stick around for a while.
Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 1 concluded on January 30, 2024.
Percy Jackson And The Olympians Season 2 Cast
Percy, Grover & Annabeth Will Return
While nothing has been announced yet, it isn't hard to speculate about the cast of Percy Jackson and The Olympians season 2. Walker Scobell should be expected back in the title role of Percy Jackson, and he will be joined by Leah Sava Jeffries as Annabeth Chase and Aryan Simhadri as Grover Underwood since they form the trio of main characters. The only cast member who cannot return is veteran actor Lance Reddick who plays the role of Zeus. Reddick sadly passed away in 2023.
It was promised that season 2 would introduce more characters, and that promise is already coming true with the announcement of Daniel Diemer as Tyson. Diemer is set to play Percy's lovably awkward and shy half brother, who is a cyclops.
The presumptive cast of Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2 includes:

Walker Scobell | Percy Jackson | |
Leah Sava Jeffries | Annabeth Chase | |
Aryan Simhadri | Grover Underwood | |
