Watch Percy Jackson And The Olympians: Synopsis

Author Rick Riordan's much-loved adolescent demigod is all set to hit the small screen for the first time, in an eight-part fantasy series that you can see with a Disney Plus subscription. And in this guide we'll explain how you can watch Percy Jackson and the Olympians online with episodes dropping weekly.

On the face of it, Percy (Walker Scobell) is about as far from a traditional hero as you can imagine when we meet him. He may have been named after Zeus's monster-slaying son Perseus, but he's just an ordinary kid with his primary quest simply trying to avoid the eye of the school bullies. As teenagerhood approaches however, things begin to feel very different for him.

It's not long before Percy's mother (Virginia Kull) is forced to reveal the truth to her son. The young man is half human and half god, and it's his duty to fulfil his destiny and master the divine powers that have been passed down to him. Accused of stealing lightning from Zeus, king of the gods, Percy must channel all the guts and bravery he can muster to embark on a quest with pals Grover (Aryan Simhadri) and Annabeth Chase (Leah Sava Jeffries) to recover the master bolt and quell the risk of all out war.

The journey Percy will take in this fantastical adventure will be both physical and emotional, and he'll meet a dizzying array of malevolent monsters and helpful heroes along the way. The latter give rise to some pleasing cameos from the likes of Adam Copeland (WWE's Edge) as Ares, Megan Mullally (Will & Grace) as Alecto, Lin-Manuel Miranda (Hamilton) as Hermes, and the dearly departed Lance Reddick (The Wire) as Zeus himself.

Will Percy – like his namesake – manage to navigate his way to a happy ending? Keep reading, as we explain exactly how to watch Percy Jackson and the Olympians on Disney Plus with full streaming and schedule details below.

The first two episodes of Percy Jackson and the Olympians land on Disney Plus on Wednesday, December 20 with new episodes of the eight-part run then set to drop every Wednesday until the season finale on January 31.

In the US, UK, Canada, and most European regions, you can also opt for its ad-supported plan for a cheaper rate (for instance, $7.99 or £4.99 per month rate respectively).

To save money in the long term, you can also sign up for 12 months, $139.99/£79.90/CA$119.99/€89.99/AU$113.99 for a year upfront (all ad-free). Keep in mind, there is also a more expensive rate in the UK, Canada, and Europe for 4K streaming.

Note that the first episode of Percy Jackson and the Olympians is also being streamed on Hulu in the US as a taster at the same time as it goes out on Disney Plus.
