"The reaction to the Percy Jackson trailer was incredible, both at the convention and online. And as I’ve said before, the really exciting thing is that this trailer is just the tiniest glimpse! Wait until you see what else we’ve got cooking," Riordan said.
Percy Jackson and the Olympians will be given new life in a series on Disney Plus which will follow the titular half-blood as he discovers more about his lineage and how dangerous it is to be a son of the big three Greek gods.
