After learning some stunning information-that he is the demigod son of Poseidon, the Greek god of the sea-12-year-old Percy (Walker Scobell) will be the focus of this television series.

The trailer features a clip of Percy abruptly thrust into a life of adventure, which begins when he steals Zeus' primary lightning bolt.

Rick Riordan, author of the book series states that Percy Jackson and the Olympians on Disney+ will be a faithful adaptation of his books. Viewers should expect certain alterations as the young hero makes his most recent transition to live-action.

The Percy Jackson teaser immediately demonstrates that the show is meeting its promise to be an accurate adaptation. Almost verbatim from Riordan's novel, Percy admits that he doesn't want to be a half-blood and issues a warning to others who might believe the same.

From there, viewers get their first real glimpse of Camp Half-Blood, complete with campers wearing orange shirts and cabins that each stand in for a different godly parent.

The Percy Jackson trailer is virtually a love letter to the fans who have been impatiently awaiting this series. Those who have read the books will recognize the significance of Percy entering the intimidating Poseidon cabin. It's an image that evokes chills.
