Riordan's Percy Jackson Set Video Shows Cheeky Look At Camp Half-Blood
Author Rick Riordan shares a Percy Jackson and the Olympians set video showing a cheeky look at the Camp Half-Blood set for the Disney+ show. Percy Jackson was previously adapted into two feature films by 20th Century Fox during the 2010s, both of which were criticized for their handling of the beloved source material. The upcoming reimagination for Disney+ is expected to offer a proper adaptation of Riordan's pentalogy of fantasy novels due to the author's direct involvement.
The Adam Project star Walker Scobell leads the Percy Jackson and the Olympians cast as the titular teenager who discovers himself to be the son of the Greek god Poseidon. Alongside Scobell, the cast includes Leah Sava Jeffries as Annabeth Chase, the daughter of Athena who has been training at Camp Half-Blood for five years, and Aryan Simhadri as Grover Underwood, Percy's best friend and a satyr disguised as a 12-year-old boy. Jericho alum Jonathan E. Steinberg and Dan Shotz serve as showrunners on Disney+'s Percy Jackson show, with each season expected to adapt an installment of the book series. The pilot episode is written by Riordan and Steinberg with James Bobin directing.
