The Disney+ series Percy Jackson and the Olympians keeps building momentum, and fans have plenty to look forward to with Season 3 already in motion. Fresh off the Season 2 finale that dropped jaws and set up major stakes, the show confirmed its return later this year. Here’s the latest breakdown of everything known so far about the upcoming season.
Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 3 Release Date Speculations
Disney+ confirmed straight up in the Season 2 finale credits that the show returns in 2026. Production kicked off August 8, 2025 in Vancouver, paused briefly for Season 2 promo in December, then picked right back up. Most reports pin the wrap date around March 2, 2026 (down from an original March 13 target), so only a handful of pickup shots left at this point.
Post-production already rolling on the early footage means they aren’t starting from scratch. Past seasons stuck to December drops—Season 1 in 2023, Season 2 in 2025—so late December 2026 lines up perfectly for holiday viewing. Multiple outlets (Forbes, ScreenRant, Economic Times) call Q4 2026 the sweet spot, probably mid-to-late December to keep the tradition alive. The early Season 3 greenlight back in March 2025 shaved off the usual wait, so fingers crossed for no delays. Trailer and firm date should surface summer or fall once editing heats up.
Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 3 Expected Cast
Walker Scobell (Percy), Leah Sava Jeffries (Annabeth), and Aryan Simhadri (Grover) are locked in—no surprise there. Their vibe carried the first two seasons, and early word is this one leans even harder into book-accurate moments.
The Titan’s Curse brings the new blood:
- Dafne Keen as Artemis (the huntress goddess—cast announced August 2025)
- Saara Chaudry as Zoë Nightshade (her fierce lieutenant)
- Levi Chrisopulos as Nico di Angelo
- Olive Abercrombie as Bianca di Angelo
- Holt McCallany as Atlas (the sky-holding Titan)
- David Costabile as Dr. Thorn (manticore mode)
- Jesse L. Martin as Frederick Chase (Annabeth’s dad)
- Kate McKinnon as Aphrodite
Thalia (Tamara Smart) stays relevant after that Season 2 twist, plus Luke, Chiron, and other gods/campers will weave in. The picks feel spot-on for the book’s intensity—especially the Hunters crew and Titan-level stakes.
Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 3 Potential Plot
Full adaptation of The Titan’s Curse. Percy, Annabeth, and Grover join forces with Artemis and her Hunters when demigods start disappearing. The rescue spirals into a massive face-off with Atlas, digs into Nico and Bianca’s heavy family secrets, and twists the Great Prophecy tighter—especially with Thalia back and that Zeus-tree punishment reveal from Season 2 fueling her anger toward Olympus.
Monster fights, sky drama, loyalty gut-punches, and yeah—that Percy-Annabeth dance scene fans have begged for shows up in the first-look tease. Rick Riordan’s hands-on role keeps the humor, heart, and brutal half-blood reality intact while tweaking for the screen. Thalia’s resentment, potential Kronos pull, and the prophecy countdown ramp everything up.
