I have to admit, in what is a very unpopular opinion, I love the Percy Jackson movies. I am not saying that they are cinematic masterpieces, but what they are is a part of what made me love book to movie adaptations.
That being said, I am excited for them to be done right. I think it is so important to have an author involved with the movie if you want it done right. The fact that Percy Jackson author, Rick Riordan, wasn’t involved with the movies is quite telling.
But he is involved the new ones and that makes me so happy. It makes me know that Disney is taking the chance to do the series right, well… seriously.
The writer took to Tik Tok to share a short teaser. Granted it wasn’t much, but it was enough to get us excited!

The reveal was part of the 2020 The Walt Disney Company Investor Day event. What do you think of the logo?
