''[The series] will follow Percy, who’s just coming to terms with his supernatural gifts, when [the] god Zeus accuses the young hero of stealing the master thunderbolt. Percy has to prove his innocence, which sends him on a quest across America to find the missing object and restore order to Olympus.''
Actor Walker Scobell essays the lead role of Percy, and his mysterious voiceover in the teaser brilliantly sets the tone for the series.
