The highly anticipated second season of Percy Jackson and the Olympians made its debut on December 10, 2025, continuing the thrilling journey of Percy Jackson and his demigod companions. Following the successful launch of the first season in December 2023, which garnered strong ratings and captivated audiences on Disney+, the show is now set to dive into the adventures found in The Sea of Monsters, the second book in Rick Riordan’s legendary series.
The longevity of the Percy Jackson franchise is noteworthy; the first book was released two decades ago, evolving into one of the best-selling series of all time. Previous adaptations included two movies, released between 2010 and 2013, but the recent series has revitalized interest in the narrative with a fresh take. Riordan, who serves as an executive producer for the show, shared his thoughts on the continuing relevance of Greek mythology, noting its exploration of timeless human themes.
This new season consists of eight episodes, mirroring the episode count of the inaugural season. Each episode will air weekly, with the final episode scheduled for January 21, 2026. The episodes will follow a structured release schedule, starting with two episodes on its premiere date and continuing with one episode each subsequent week. The titles of the episodes reflect key moments in the story, setting high expectations for viewers.
Notably, the production faced unique challenges, particularly the rapid growth of its young cast. This has prompted Riordan to address the impact on filming, acknowledging that the pace of production must keep up with the cast’s aging. To mitigate this issue, production for a potential third season has already commenced.
Fans are eager to see how the adaptation unfolds, particularly as the series aims to do justice to each book in Riordan’s five-part series. With multiple spin-offs and related works set in the Percy Jackson universe, the show is well-positioned to continue captivating audiences for years to come.
New episodes of Percy Jackson and the Olympians are available to stream on Disney+ and Hulu, providing fans with ample opportunity to catch up on the action and mythology. As the season progresses, anticipation mounts for how Percy and his friends will navigate the challenges that await in the mysterious Sea of Monsters.
