For Percy Jackson and the Olympians, the wait is over.
The first two episodes of the series were released by Disney earlier than expected. On December 19, starting at 6 p.m. PT, viewers can watch the episodes on Disney+. Hulu offers access to the first episode as well.
Not only that, but more episodes will air every Tuesday at 6 p.m. PT until the end of the series on January 30.
The initial plan was for Percy Jackson to premiere on December 20 and release new episodes every Wednesday.
“We’re so grateful for the amazing and dedicated Percy Jackson fans who have enthusiastically supported this project from the very beginning. They’ve been counting down the days, and as a special thank you, we wanted to let our fans enjoy the first two episodes a bit earlier than expected,” said Pamela Levine, head of marketing for Disney Branded Television and National Geographic Content.
Aryan Simhadri plays Grover Underwood, Leah Sava Jeffries plays Annabeth Chase, and Walker Scobell plays Percy Jackson in the programme.
