PERCY JACKSON AND THE OLYMPIANS: SEASON 2

I got an early look at the first four episodes of Percy Jackson and the Olympians: Season 2 and it is incredible. The season picks up right where the previous season left off and each episode is filled with action, adventure, humor, and it kept me on the edge of my seat.

This season adapts the second book in the series, The Sea of Monsters, following Percy, Annabeth, and a cyclops named Tyson as they journey into the Sea of Monsters to find the Golden Fleece and save Camp Half-Blood.

This series offers an amazing mix of magic, friendship, and epic quests that really shines with its amazingly talented cast. Walker Scobell returns as Percy Jackson, bringing humor and bravery to the character, while Leah Sava Jeffries plays Annabeth Chase with intelligence and heart. Aryan Simhadri reprises his role as Grover, adding both comic relief and loyalty that make him a fan favorite. New characters are introduced this season, including Daniel Diemer as Tyson, the lovable Cyclops, who is also Percy's paternal half-brother, the son of Poseidon. The settings are spectacular - Camp Half-Blood feels even more immersive, from the cabins and training grounds to the surrounding mythical landscapes. The costumes are on point, reflecting each character's personality and role while staying true to the books. The action sequences are thrilling and well-choreographed, and the CGI brings creatures and magical effects to life in a way that's both believable and exciting. The story balances moments of humor, friendship, and tension perfectly, making it feel like an epic adventure that's also deeply personal for the characters.

This series is about courage, friendship, and staying true to yourself even when the odds are stacked against you. It shows that heroes aren't defined by their powers alone, but by their choices, loyalty, and willingness to do what's right. Season 2 reminds viewers that teamwork, trust, and perseverance can overcome even the most impossible challenges, and that growth often comes through facing your fears head-on.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians: Season 2 gets 5 out of 5 stars from me and I recommend it for ages 8 to 18, plus adults. It premieres on Disney+ on December 10, 2025, with the first two episodes available that day and the other six episodes roll out weekly.

In the new season, Percy Jackson returns to Camp Half-Blood one year later to find his world turned upside down. His friendship with Annabeth is changing, he learns he has a cyclops for a brother, Grover has gone missing, and Camp Half-Blood is under siege from the forces of Kronos. Percy's journey to set things right will take him off the map and into the deadly Sea of Monsters, where a secret fate awaits the son of Poseidon.
