Walker Scobell, anticipating Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 2, shares his hopes for the potential renewal. While not confirmed yet, the series’ dream plan, according to author Rick Riordan, is to have five seasons—one for each novel. Season 1 covers The Lightning Thief, and Season 2, if greenlit, would adapt The Sea of Monsters. The show aims for a more faithful adaptation compared to the 2010 and 2013 movies.
Will There Be a ‘Percy Jackson’ Season 2?
Scobell was determined to do all of the stunts that safety regulations would allow, and despite the discomfort after days of filming underwater, he says it was still a blast. He was also surrounded by adults prepared to help him in the water while these scenes were being filmed.

“The whole stunt team was underwater with me, and then they brought in these cool jets in the final day that I could swim around with, so that was really fun,” Scobell shares.
Walker Scobell is anticipating more outdoor scenes in Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 2, hoping to escape his transparent complexion. Although uncertain about the show’s renewal, the cast speculates on potential changes, expecting more on-location filming. Leah Sava Jeffries and Aryan Simhadri express enthusiasm for new characters like Thalia and Tyson, anticipating expanded roles for Dior Goodjohn and Charlie Bushnell. The trio is excited about the show’s future, while fans eagerly await official renewal updates.

The official Sea of Monsters book description reads: “When Thalia’s tree is mysteriously poisoned, the magical borders of Camp Half-Blood begin to fail. Now Percy and his friends have just days to find the only magic item powerful to save the camp before it is overrun by monsters. The catch: they must sail into the Sea of Monsters to find it. Along the way, Percy must stage a daring rescue operation to save his old friend Grover, and he learns a terrible secret about his own family, which makes him question whether being the son of Poseidon is an honor or a curse.”
Scobell is hopeful that the series will be renewed and that they’ll be able to bring this story to life, but he predicts having a lot more underwater scenes to film for that potential second season. In Season 1, all of his underwater scenes were filmed on his final day on set. “My last day was all the underwater stuff. In Episode 4, after I fall off the [St. Louis] arch, and then in Episode 6, when I talk to the naiad, that was my last two days, completely underwater,” Scobell tells TV Insider. “Those were really fun, but I’m a little bit nervous for next season because — since I have to keep my eyes open [while filming underwater], on the second day, my eyes really started burning — I’ll probably have to do a week of that.”
