- Disney+ screened the first minutes of Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 3 at San Diego Comic-Con and announced a November 20 premiere date for the eight-episode adaptation of Rick Riordan's "The Titan's Curse."
- Walker Scobell said at the panel that Season 3 is the most book-accurate adaptation the series has produced so far, a notable claim given fan scrutiny of the show's faithfulness to Riordan's novels.
- Season 3's plot centers on Percy, Grover, and fellow campers rescuing Annabeth Chase (Leah Sava Jeffries) and Artemis (Dafne Keen) from the Titan Atlas (Holt McCallany), with the premiere opening on Thalia Grace battling a monster in a parking garage.
- New cast additions include Levi Chrisopulos as Nico di Angelo, Olive Abercombie as Bianca di Angelo, Saara Chaudry as Zoë Nightshade, Hubert Smielecki as Apollo, Kate McKinnon as Aphrodite, and Ming-Na Wen as Hera.
- Returning cast features Charlie Bushnell as Luke Castellan, Daniel Diemer as Tyson, and Dior Goodjohn as Clarisse La Rue, with the Season 2 finale's introduction of Thalia Grace (Tamara Smart) setting up her Season 3 arc.
- Riordan and his wife Rebecca Riordan executive produce alongside Jonathan E. Steinberg, Craig Silverstein, Dan Shotz, and The Gotham Group's Ellen Goldsmith-Vein, Jeremy Bell, and D.J. Goldberg.
Why it matters: Percy Jackson fans get two seasons in one calendar year — Season 2 wrapped in January 2026 and Season 3 lands November 20 — a cadence that signals Disney+'s confidence in the franchise. Scobell's book-accuracy endorsement matters because Riordan's fans have vocally criticized earlier deviations in the adaptation.
