Luke Castellan is cruising for a bruising in Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2. The upcoming season, which is about a week into production, will premiere on Disney+ in 2025. At D23 Expo, the cast and crew teased what could be coming. “I think we’re just to the point of getting over how tall everyone has gotten,” EP Craig Silverstein said. Based on book 2 of Rick Riordan’s series, The Sea of Monsters, this new saga will introduce Percy’s half brother, Tyson. “I’m looking forward to my two beautiful sons meeting each other, said Toby Stephens, who plays Aquadaddy Poseidon. Daniel Diemer, the actor playing Tyson in the show, took the stage and hugged his bro Walker Scobell. Diemer said he was a “huge fan” of the books. “Like ‘waiting for the books to be written’ fan.” Diemer is slightly older than the rest of his castmates, which means he probably has more vivid memories (nightmares?) of the Logan Lerman movies.
Still unknown: how the show will handle the death of Lance Reddick, who played Zeus. In February, the showrunners said they were still “in a little bit of denial” about having to recast or change the story. “He was a such an exceptional colleague and friend,” executive producer Dan Shotz said. “We miss him terribly. Every time I get to see him on screen it just makes me feel so proud that he was a part of this, and it meant so much to him to be a part of this.”
