'Percy Jackson': Check out Fairview actor's scenes in Season 2 trailer
SAN DIEGO – Percy Jackson is setting sail for a second season of monstrous adventure, with some new blood coming along for the voyage. The series stars Fairview Township's Walker Scobell as the titular Percy, the son of Poseidon. A Comic-Con panel for the Disney+ series 'Percy Jackson and the Olympians' premiered a Season 2 teaser that featured a ton of action and the first look at Tyson, the fan-favorite cyclops from Rick Riordan's book series. In a video message, Riordan announced the new season will premiere on Disney+ December 10. This next chapter finds Percy embarking on a quest to the Sea of Monsters to find his kidnapped best friend Grover (Aryan Simhadri). He's also seeking the Golden Fleece – a mystical artifact that can heal anything and anyone – in order to save his home, Camp Half-Blood, from the villainous likes of Luke (Charlie Bushnell) and Titan Kronos (Nick Boraine).

Riordan also announced a few young Season 3 newcomers. Levi Chrisopulos and Olive Abercrombie will play Nico di Angelo and his sister Bianca, the demigod children of Hades (Jay Duplass). The first season was 'an American road trip,' said executive producer Jon Steinberg, and in Season 2, 'you are in the fantasy, and magic is in every direction. Anything is possible, and it's an adventure form start to finish.' He also teased a chariot race track built for a 'massive' sequence that was 'the biggest thing we've ever shot, practically.' That moment also impressed Timothy Simons, who plays Camp Half-Blood activities director Tantalus. 'I'm used to being on shabby comedies,' said the "Veep" and "Nobody Wants This" actor. "I've never been on anything that had a fire budget.' Simons also got to pet and feed a horse: 'It was an incredible day.' Cast members revealed where their characters are heading in the Season 2. Grover has 'never been alone,' Simhadri said, and when he's captured, it's the first time 'he doesn't have people to rely on. He has to step up and fend for himself, and that's something we've never seen from him.' Jeffries said Annabeth, the child of Athena who was rather stoic in the first season, will 'be vulnerable and open up' to Percy on their journey. And Goodjohn touted a larger role for Clarisse, the daughter of god of war Ares. While she's 'a one-dimensional bully' in the book series, Goodjohn said that the new season digs into the 'traumatic experiences' that made Clarisse who she is, in a 'beautiful arc.' As a newcomer, Diemer had 'the time of my life' playing the powerful, innocent and deeply lovable Tyson. Coming in as a fan who grew up on Riordan's books, 'the whole idea was to create a cyclops baby with a huge heart but dealing with the complexity of his past.' Simhadri admitted one of his favorite bits in Season 2 involves him wearing a wedding dress, while Scobell and Diemer reminisced about doing the iconic 'Titanic' scene while filming on an ironclad, with Scobell holding his co-star's waist while Diemer flung his arms out, Kate Winslet-style. 'It brought us closer,' Scobell quipped. Diemer replied: 'Very different from the brotherly relationship. It was nice.' There were some big changes during the long break between seasons (the first ended in January 2024). Simhadri joked he 'grew a few feet," while Scobell added, 'It's nice to take a lot of time away and grow and experience real life again and then come back and film.' Scobell, 16, still has to attend school during production. He remembers one day filming a big battle scene where he was the only actor who needed to go to class. 'Everyone would be fighting, and there were all these cries for help and pain. And in my mind, I'd be trying to kill this dude,' he recalled. 'I'd be in school (later) and I'd still hear that, people begging for their life. It's a weird thing to switch off.'

Disney brought the Olympian energy to Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con, confirming that Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 2 will premiere on Disney+ on December 10, 2025. Fans at the panel got a sneak peek at the highly anticipated Sea of Monsters adventure, plus some big casting updates that stretch beyond Season 2. If you're a fan of the series, the new Season 2 teaser delivers the good. The footage with demigods preparing for an 'inevitable' war. Dior Goodjohn's Clarisse makes an intimidating entrance, climbing out of a boat with pure warrior energy, while Charlie Bushnell's Luke sharpens his betrayal game, wielding a vicious-looking knife. 'Brace yourself, Perseus,' warns Poseidon as things heat up. When Annabeth asks Percy if he's ready to dive into the Sea of Monsters, his response is pure hero mode: 'Let's go do the impossible.' Fans also got a first look at Daniel Diemer's Tyson protecting Percy from a flaming attack, revealing his cyclops transformation in all its glory. The Gray Sisters even pop in for some comic relief, teasing Annabeth about Percy being her 'boyfriend.' Season 2 adapts The Sea of Monsters , the second book in Rick Riordan's fantasy adventure series. Percy's quest this time is to find the Golden Fleece to restore Camp Half-Blood's failing barrier and stop Kronos' forces. Disney+ describes the season as follows: 'After Camp Half-Blood's protective border is breached, Percy Jackson embarks on an epic odyssey into the Sea of Monsters in search of his best friend Grover and the one thing that may save the camp — the Golden Fleece. 'With help from Annabeth, Clarisse and his newfound cyclops half-brother Tyson, Percy's survival is crucial in the fight to stop Luke, the Titan Kronos, and their impending plan to bring down Camp Half-Blood — and ultimately, Olympus.' Executive producer Craig Silverstein said: 'So, Percy has to set out to set things right, and that means a quest to find the Golden Fleece, which is a legendary artifact that can heal anything or anyone, and he needs to use it to restore the protective barrier that surrounds Camp Half-Blood. So Season 2 is about Percy trying to hold all of his life together as it's breaking and changing. And that's your typical middle school experience.' Executive producer Dan Shotz hyped the scale of the new season, promising it's bigger and bolder: 'Season 2 is epic. It is so huge, what we were able to build. We are on the Sea of Monsters adventure. 'So, we are out at sea. We are on 175-foot ironclad ship. We are on cruise ships. We are in chariot races. We are fighting incredible monsters. It is so massive and we cannot wait for you guys to see.' Fans also got a hilarious preview of Aryan Simhadri in Grover's infamous wedding dress, straight from the book. Alongside the teaser, Riordan dropped the news that Levi Chrisopulos and Olive Abercrombie will join Percy Jackson and the Olympians in Season 3 as Nico and Bianca di Angelo, the mysterious children of Hades. Season 3 will adapt The Titan's Curse and is set to begin production soon. For Season 2, returning stars include Walker Scobell (Percy Jackson), Leah Sava Jeffries (Annabeth Chase), Aryan Simhadri (Grover), Charlie Bushnell (Luke), Dior Goodjohn (Clarisse), and Daniel Diemer (Tyson). Tamara Smart joins as Thalia Grace, with Jason Mantzoukas returning as Dionysus, and Timothy Simons stepping in as Tantalus. Lin-Manuel Miranda is back as Hermes, and Courtney B. Vance takes on the role of Zeus after the passing of Lance Reddick. Sandra Bernhard, Kirsten Schaal, and Margaret Cho will portray the Gray Sisters.
