Demigods assemble! Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2 is officially in the works and we now have a release month.

Ever since Rick Riordan announced that he would be adapting Percy Jackson and the Olympians into a series with Disney+, fans have been hoping that the show will last long enough to cover every book in the franchise. The films in the 2010s only made it up to the second book, The Sea of Monsters. They were also criticised for straying far from the source material.

With the first season of Percy Jackson and the Olympians now over, the demand for a second season is overwhelming. With that in mind, here's everything we know so far about Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2 including the release date, cast info, plot spoilers and news about what's to come.

Will there be a Percy Jackson season 2?

In February 2024, Disney+ confirmed that Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2 is happening. In a statement, Disney Branded Television president Ayo Davi said: "We’re thrilled to embark on an exciting new quest and a season two with Rick Riordan, our fantastic partners at 20th Television, and the exceptional cast and creative talent that bring this story to life."

Rick Riordan also said: "I can’t wait to bring the next season of Percy Jackson to Disney+. Raise anchors. Hoist the mainsail. All hands on deck, demigods. We’re heading for the Sea of Monsters!"

When the show originally debuted, executive producer Jon Steinberg teased that discussions about season 2 were already happening. He told Deadline: "Everyone has a real hope that this will live a long and healthy life. Right now, we’re trying to deal with step one. But we’d be lying if we said there weren’t people who are thinking about step two right now."

Meanwhile, executive producer Becky Riordan confirmed that they’ve already started to outline the season 2 "bible". She said: "Sea of Monsters is one of my favourites. I really love that we’re going to have more time with Grover."

When is the Percy Jackson season 2 release date?

On March 15th 2025, Disney+ officially announced that Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2 will be coming out in December 2025, two years after the first season premiered. Filming finished in January 2025 and post production will be taking place throughout the year.

Disney have also confirmed that Percy Jackson season 3 is officially in the works. Whether or not we'll have to wait another two years for that is currently yet to be seen.

Who is in the Percy Jackson season 2 cast?

Just like The Sea of Monsters, most of the characters from Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 1 will stick around for a second season in order to stay true to the books.

As it stands, these are the cast members who've been revealed:

Walker Scobell - Percy Jackson
Leah Jeffries - Annabeth Chase
Aryan Simhadri - Grover Underwood
Dior Goodjohn - Clarisse La Rue
Charlie Bushnell - Luke Castellan
Daniel Diemer - Tyson the Cyclops
Virginia Kull - Sally Jackson
Glynn Turman - Chiron
Jason Mantzouksas - Dionysus
Sandra Bernhard - Anger (Gray Sister)
Kristen Schaal - Tempest (Gray Sister)
Margaret Cho - Wasp (Gray Sister)

Season 2 will also introduce fans to many more iconic characters from The Sea of Monsters. Actors for Tantalus, Charles Beckendorf, Rainbow, Agrius and Oreius, Circe, Reyna Ramírez-Arellano, Hylla Ramírez-Arellano, Blackbeard, Blackjack, Thalia Grace and Polyphemus are currently yet to be revealed.

What will happen in Percy Jackson season 2?

Based on everything the cast and crew have said, we reckon that Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2 will follow the plot of The Sea of Monsters closely. In the book, Percy is 13 and he and his friends are tasked with saving Grover from the Cyclops Polyphemus.

Meanwhile, Camp Half-Blood is attacked by a Titan and Clarisse is tasked with retrieving a Golden Fleece in order to cure the magical pine tree that protects Camp Half-Blood.

Just like season 1, it will be filled with magic, mystery and no doubt a couple of surprises.
