Percy Jackson and the Olympians is set to enchant fans once again as it gears up for a highly anticipated third season on Disney+. Following the successful adaptation of The Sea of Monsters, the series will soon delve into The Titan’s Curse, the third book in Rick Riordan’s acclaimed series. Despite the excitement, an official release date remains unconfirmed. However, optimism surrounds a shorter wait compared to the two-year gap that preceded the last two seasons.
Filming for Season 3 commenced in the summer of 2025 after Disney+ provided an early renewal, and the production team is reportedly in its final stages by early January 2026. Fans are hopeful that the new season may premiere by late 2026 or early 2027, with a desire for an ambitious turnaround of roughly 18 months.
Rick Riordan, who serves as the series’ author and executive producer, conveyed his enthusiasm for what lies ahead. He indicated that this season will welcome beloved characters, enhancing the show’s depth. “It’s a huge sign of commitment from Disney, and it speaks volumes about how the fandom has embraced the series. This season will open new doors with characters like the Hunters of Artemis and Nico di Angelo making their debut,” Riordan noted.
The cast will bring back familiar faces, including Walker Scobell as Percy, Leah Sava Jeffries as Annabeth, and Aryan Simhadri as Grover. However, the third season promises exciting new additions, including Dafne Keen as Artemis, whose abduction triggers the season’s perilous events. Holt McCallany will portray Atlas, the Titan responsible for the kidnapping. Fans can also look forward to seeing Kate McKinnon as Aphrodite, Jesse L. Martin as Annabeth’s father Frederick, and Saara Chaudry as Zoë Nightshade of the Hunters of Artemis. Additionally, David Costabile is set to play Dr. Thorn, a new adversary in Percy’s journey.
The plot of The Titan’s Curse revolves around a critical rescue mission after the disappearance of a powerful goddess, with an impending threat of war between Greek gods and Titans looming on the horizon. The adaptation is expected to stay true to the source material, which has thrilled fans in the past. With a prophecy hinting that not all characters may survive, the stakes are higher than ever.
Walker Scobell expressed confidence in the upcoming season, stating, “I think Season 3 is going to be the most accurate adaptation we’ve done so far. The book is just perfect for breaking up into eight episodes. It really works, and I think fans will love it.”
Looking ahead, Season 3 signifies a blend of thrilling adventures while remaining loyal to the cherished foundations of the series. As Percy and his companions face new challenges, the show continues to win over new fans and honor its dedicated audience. The mix of action, mythology, and heartfelt moments promises that more magic, monsters, and excitement are on the horizon.
