percy jackson and the olympians by rick riordan

I was wondering through one of the many gardens of Olympus when I heard sobbing coming from a bench behind one of the large plants. Suddenly I was taken into the memories of about 20 years ago on Olympus. That’s how long it had been since the 2 wars. That was how I ended up here, in Goode high school, sitting in my English classroom despite being a 60 year old God. Even monsters started to appear less often due to their inability to hide from people. It took a while but eventually there was peace, and everybody was getting along. One upset goddess and the mist was destroyed, mortals now being placed in danger against monsters.Īt first there was apprehension in the mortal world but after a while of tense relations, almost like the Cuban missile crisis all over again, agreements were made that decided there would be peace between the two worlds. Thanks to our friends at Disney Branded Television led by Ayo, and Disney Streaming led by Michael, this will be an adaptation for the ages, with all the excitement, action and mythology fans of the books expect and love.Years of hiding and secrecy, keeping the godly world separate from the mortal world just for it to all come crashing down in the span of an hour. It was previously adapted as a film Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief in 2010 followed by Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters in 2013.Īyo Davis, president of Disney Branded Television, said, “With Rick Riordan, Jon Steinberg and Dan Shotz leading our creative team, we’re deep into creating a compelling TV series worthy of the heroic mythological characters that millions of Percy Jackson readers know are well-worth caring about, and we’re eager to invite Disney+ audiences into stories that are true to the blockbuster franchise and full of anticipation, humor, surprise, and mystery.”Ģ0th Television President Karey Burke added, “Bringing Rick Riordan’s brilliant Percy Jackson books to Disney+ as a television series has been a mission for so many of us at this company as well as for Rick himself, and Jon, Dan, James and the excellent team they have assembled have proven to be the perfect collaborators. Now Percy must trek across America to find it and restore order to Olympus. Percy Jackson and 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. The series order was announced by Riordan on social media (you can see the video below). 'The Crossover': Disney+ Picks Up Kwame Alexander’s Basketball Drama To Series LeBron James Joins As EP
