Percy Jacksonfollows the story of the young demigod Percy and his friends, Grover and Annabeth, on their journey as they fight monsters and Greek gods while keeping a normal life. The book series has been adapted on the big screen in 2010 and 2013, respectively.

Percy Jackson Series New Release Date
In a post fromRiordan’s website, he shared some of his sentiments regarding the series:
“So when will the show be out? I hear there have been some wildly unrealistic dates floating around on social media, so I am here to moderate your expectations. Previously, I have said that my own personal best guess was sometime in 2023. I also warned you that this could definitely change. Now that I have a somewhat better understanding of the work involved, here’s what I am estimating: It’s probably going to take us through December or into January to film all the episodes of season one, which is roughly one month of filming per episode (eight episodes total), though very often we are filming pieces of 101, 102, or even 103 out of order on any given day, depending on what set we are using.”
He also added that editing and including sound effects, together with subtitling and closed-captioning for international viewers, will take months and months to finish.
“Given all this, I think the most likely air date will probably be early 2024. Again, that’s just me guessing. The actual release dates are determined by the studio and the streaming service, and have to take in hundreds of other factors like the release schedule for all Disney+ shows, timing for publicity, etc.”
While fans wait for the final output of the series, Riordan has also shared some updates about the early stages of production such asnewly added castsand thelocation of Camp Half-Blood.
