Season 1 covers The Lightning Thief, the first of the five core Percy Jackson books.
Percy Jackson and the Olympians has a new lease on live-action life. Over one decade after its final attempt as a feature film franchise, Disney+ greenlit a serialized adaptation of Rick Riordan's best-selling books. Rather than attempt to squeeze 22 chapters of The Lightning Thief into a movie runtime, Disney+'s Percy Jackson has the luxury of playing with eight episodes of streaming television for each story.
"When we took this on, and I think when we first started to get to know Rick and Becky , I think the promise was made that a lot of care was going to go into this," Steinberg added."This wasn't really about just trying to get the book on screen or just trying to get something to market, but it was about trying to really embrace what was special about the experience people had with the books and find a way to translate that.
One of the many issues fans took with the Logan Lerman-led film adaptations in the early 2010s were that they tried to cram too much into each movie. This was especially apparent in Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters , as that movie expedited multiple significant events from later books far before they were given proper set up.
"I think part of the job was being aware of setting the table," Steinberg saod."Making sure that everything was in the right place and that the right actors were in the right places for this to live a long life."
