Disney+ released the trailer for the upcoming series Percy Jackson and the Olympians on September 19, 2023, and has since generated a lot of excitement among fans.

The official logline, along with the newly released trailer, reads:

"Percy Jackson & The Olympians tells the fantastical story of a 12-year-old modern demigod, Percy Jackson, who’s just coming to terms with his newfound supernatural powers when the sky god Zeus accuses him of stealing his master lightning bolt. Now Percy must trek across America to find it and restore order to Olympus."

In the new Disney+ series, Percy Jackson, a young boy who learns he is a demigod, tells his tale. One of Percy's parents is a Greek deity, and because of this, he is a half-blood. It is based on the first book of the series by author Rick Riordan.

Zeus, the sky god, accuses Percy of stealing his lightning bolt as he learns to use his newly acquired superhuman skills. With the help of his new companions, Percy sets off on the quest of a lifetime to find it and restore order to Olympus.

The iconic setting of the series, Camp Half-Blood, will be heavily highlighted. Each hut in the camp represents a different Greek deity and their children, making it a haven for demigods.

Disney's 20th Television is the company behind creating the upcoming fantasy action-adventure series. Percy Jackson author Rick Riordan and Jon Steinberg co-wrote the show's pilot episode. James Bobin is the show's director. Dan Shotz, Bert Salke, Monica Owusu-Breen, Jim Rowe, Ellen Goldsmith-Vein, Jeremy Bell, D.J. Goldberg, and Riordan's wife, Rebecca Riordan, serve as the executive producers of the upcoming series.
