The energy was electric, a testament to the enduring power of Rick Riordan’s beloved universe and the anticipation for its continued adaptation.
The star-studded Hall H panel, moderated by actor-comedian Timothy Simons (who also stars as Tantalus in the series), featured series leads Walker Scobell (Percy Jackson), Leah Sava Jeffries (Annabeth Chase), Aryan Simhadri (Grover Underwood), Charlie Bushnell (Luke Castellan), Dior Goodjohn (Clarisse La Rue), and Daniel Diemer (Tyson). They were joined by executive producers Jonathan E. Steinberg, Dan Shotz, and Craig Silverstein, offering insights and behind-the-scenes glimpses that captivated the audience. A highlight of the panel was the exciting peek at the upcoming season, including the debut of a brand-new teaser that offered fans their highly anticipated first look at the fan-favorite cyclops, Tyson.
The biggest revelation came directly from the architect of the mythological world himself.

This news ignited a roar of approval, setting a firm date for the next chapter of Percy’s adventures.
Season 2 of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is based on “The Sea of Monsters,” the second installment of Disney Hyperion’s bestselling book series. The narrative thrusts Percy Jackson into an epic odyssey after Camp Half-Blood’s protective border is breached. His quest: to venture into the treacherous Sea of Monsters in search of his best friend Grover and the one artifact that may save the camp—the legendary Golden Fleece. With the crucial help of Annabeth, Clarisse, and his newfound cyclops half-brother Tyson, Percy’s survival is paramount in the fight to thwart Luke, the formidable Titan Kronos, and their impending plan to bring down Camp Half-Blood—and ultimately, Olympus itself.
Further expanding the series’ future, Riordan also revealed that casting is now complete for two more fan-favorite demigods, the enigmatic children of Hades, Nico di Angelo and his sister Bianca. Levi Chrisopulos is set to star as Nico, joining the series as a regular cast member, while Olive Abercrombie will appear in a recurring role as Bianca. This exciting news confirms that the narrative will delve deeper into the rich tapestry of Riordan’s world, with production on Season 3 slated to begin soon.
