‘Percy Jackson and the Olympians’ Season 2 Gets an Update from Star

It’s now been more than a year since the premiere of Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 1, and while Season 2 of the hit Disney+ series doesn’t have an official release date yet, one of the stars just delivered an exciting update. Percy Jackson was renewed for a second season shortly after the first season concluded, and filming for the second season began earlier this year and is scheduled to wrap up shortly in 2025. Adam Copelandalso known as wrestling superstar Edge, plays Ares in the series Greek Mythology, and during a recent interview with ScreenRant he was asked about Season 2 and talked about where we’ll find the kids in the next episode and how much he’s done Fun in the role:

“It was a pretty crazy ride. It felt good to go out and shoot some scenes for this season. Yeah, I mean, it’s not a hard job, man. I’m flying to Vancouver, one of my favorite cities. I spend time with her.” Great people. I have a lot of friends out there Every time I leave it feels like a homecoming. I love working with the cast and crew. It’s just a phenomenal group of people who all have the same goal.

(…)

The kids are growing up, and they’re not so much kids anymore. I think it just naturally follows the progression of what happens to you as a teenager. I think that’s why the books always have a connection to each other, because I feel like People saw a part of themselves in these characters and the awkward phases you go throughbut when you have friends it doesn’t feel quite so awkward. And I feel like in the heart of Percy Jackson, that’s what they’re really about.”

One of the biggest challenges in filming a series with child actors that spans multiple seasons is making sure they feel the same age without recasting, and it sounds like “the kids” in Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 2 will feel more adult without losing the childlike wonder. Stranger Things has encountered problems convincing its audience that its actors, most of whom are well into their early 20s, are still teenage high school students. Star Wars: Skeleton Crew will also face similar obstacles if it has the chance to complete multiple seasons. Part of the Season 1 journey for Percy (Walker Scobell), Annabeth (Leah Sava Jeffries) and Grover (Aryan Simhadri) learned to navigate the world alone, which is a crucial part of growing up. Percy stays mostly the same age throughout the book series Rick Riordantherefore, the show will certainly have to make some changes in the long run if it wants to stick with Scobell, Jeffries and Simhadri.

What do we know about the second season of “Percy Jackson”?

Disney has not announced a release date Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 2, but with the show expected to wrap filming in the coming weeks, it wouldn’t be shocking if a similar release to the first season was eyed and would arrive towards the end of 2025.

New cast members include: Rosemarie DeWitt, Aleks Paunovic, Kevin Chacon, Beatrice KitsosAnd Andra day.
