Disney+ has finally dropped the official teaser trailer for the highly-anticipated Percy Jackson and the Olympians, and it looks godly, to say the least.
Soundtracked by an epic remix of Vance Joy’s “Riptide” and featuring proper looks at most of the main characters and iconic locations, this trailer teases some of the first book’s most recognizable scenes and the epic story to come. This series marks the second adaptation of the beloved novels, premiering 13 years after the release of the much-loathed film adaptation, titled Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief and followed by the sequel Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters.
Following the events of the first book (“The Lightning Thief”) in author Rick Riordan’s celebrated novel series, Percy Jackson and the Olympians follows the titular Percy (Walker Scobell) as he discovers that he is actually a demigod, whose father is the mythical Poseidon (Toby Stephens). Joined by his new friends Annabeth (Leah Jeffries) and Grover (Aryan Simhadri), Percy is forced to leave the safety of his new home at Camp Half-Blood in order to retrieve Zeus’ (the late, great Lance Reddick) stolen lightning bolt before it falls into the wrong hands.
