Exclusive: Lily Collias (Good One), Joe Anders (upcoming East of Eden), and Malia Pyles (Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin) have come aboard to round out the cast of Apple TV+’s Cape Fear TV series.

No word on roles to be played by the trio. They join an ensemble that will also include Javier Bardem, Amy Adams, Patrick Wilson, Cch Pounder, Anna Baryshnikov, Jamie Hector, and Clara Wong.

In Cape Fear — created, written, and showrun by Nick Antosca — a storm is coming for happily married attorneys Anna (Adams) and Tom Bowden (Wilson) when Max Cady (Bardem), a notorious killer from their past, gets out of prison. The 10-episode series is billed as a tense, Hitchcockian thriller and an examination of America’s obsession with true crime in the 21st century.

Hailing from UCP, a division of Universal Studio Group, and Amblin Television, the show is based on both the novel The Executioners,...

It doesn’t take long for the action in Siobhan McCarthy’s charming directorial debut, She’s the He, to kick off. The film, which premiered at SXSW, opens with two friends scheming to get laid before they graduate from high school. Their libidinous preoccupations, like those of the protagonists of Superbad, Booksmart and more recently Bottoms, are familiar. But unlike their predecessors, Alex (Nico Carney) and Ethan (Misha Osherovich) aren’t just considered losers by the vague standards of a rigidly stratified student body. Everyone also thinks they are gay and dating each other.

To change their reputation, the pair decide to come out as trans. The logic behind this plan doesn’t completely hold up, but the execution leads to an entertaining and endearing coming-of-age drama.

For the most part, She’s the He follows the beats of a typical comedic bildungsroman, but McCarthy also finds distinctive ways into the genre.

In recent years a worrying number of men on the right of US politics have stepped up to declare that had trans rights been a thing when they were at high school or college, they would have pretended to be trans in order to get into girls’ changing rooms and ogle the objects of their desire. Not only is this really not the gotcha they think it is – it doesn’t so much address others’ behaviour as their own need to be on a watchlist – it’s poorly thought through. What would really happen in a situation like that? She’s The He, which screened at SXSW 2025, aims to find out.

Meet Alex (Nico Carney) and Ethan (Misha Osherovich). They’ve been best friends for so long that everyone is convinced they’re a couple, despite the fact that Alex is always hitting on Mary (Suzanne Cryer), Ethan’s mum.

Two high school friends pose as trans women in the teaser trailer for the comedy film She’s the He, which is set to premiere at the SXSW Film Festival.

Starring Misha Osherovich and Nico Carney, writer-director Siobhan McCarthy’s feature makes its world premiere at SXSW on March 9. Rounding out the cast are Suzanne Cryer (Broad City), Mark Indelicato (Hacks), Malia Pyles (Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin), Emmett Preciado (Good Trouble), Aparna Nancherla (Another Simple Favor), Kyle Butenhoff (Monsters), Tatiana Ringsby and Emma Orr.

She’s the He focuses on high school friends Ethan (Osherovich) and Alex (Carney), who pretend to be trans women during the final week before graduation to help Alex connect with his crush. In the process, Ethan realizes she is actually trans.

“The only way that I can think of to make you seem not super gay is if I was a girl,” Osherovich says in the below trailer,...

Percy Jackson & the Olympians should make monster encounters more suspenseful by keeping the heroes in the dark about who they're facing. It's important for the show to prioritize accuracy from the books to maintain the dramatic stakes and tension in season 2. The young age of the characters in Percy Jackson series should be reflected in their vulnerability and susceptibility to being tricked by monsters.

Disney+'s Percy Jackson and the Olympians has generally been well-received, but the series can improve when it comes to the heroes encountering monsters and other villains. Season 1 sees Percy Jackson (Walker Scobell), Annabeth Chase (Leah Jeffries), and Grover Underwood (Aryan Simhadri) crossing paths with many iconic monsters from Greek mythology, including Medusa (Jessica Parker Kennedy), Echidna (Suzanne Cryer), and Cerberus. The series adapted the versions of these monsters from The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan.

Lucky Hank's cancelation after one season is disappointing, as it offered relatable characters and entertaining plotlines. The standout episode "The Clock," showcased Odenkirk's career-best performance, adding depth to Hank's character and the series. The potential for a second season explored Hank and Lily's evolving relationship and the chaos left at Railton College after Hank's departure.

Bob Odenkirk's Lucky Hank getting canceled after only one season is still disappointing to me. The series garnered positive critical reception as it earned a 93% critical score on Rotten Tomatoes following its debut on AMC in March 2023. In his first live-action television series role since the end of Better Call Saul, Odenkirk played William Henry "Hank" Devereaux, a jaded English department chairperson and professor at Railton College, located in rural Pennsylvania.

Adapted from Richard Russo's novel Straight Man, the comedic series follows Hank experiencing his own existential crisis while balancing family issues,...

The Disney+ series Percy Jackson and the Olympians had many exciting guest stars, and it's hard for star Walker Scobell to pick one. However, when pressed, he ultimately went with Adam Copeland.

In Percy Jackson and the Olympians, actor and Aew wrestler Adam Copeland --- formerly known as WWE's Edge --- played the role of Ares, the god of war. While at Superhero Comic Con (per Agents of Fandom). Scobell was asked to name his favorite guest stars in the series, and he shared how he's often asked about Hermes actor Lin-Manuel Miranda. However, while stating how he loves all of the guest stars, he said Copeland would be his favorite if he had to choose just one.

Warning: This article contains Spoilers for Percy Jackson & the Olympians season 1.

Percy Jackson & the Olympians season 1 offers a faithful adaptation of the books, but some episodes are stronger than others. The episodes that directly impact the plot tend to be more interesting, creating an imbalance. Overall, season 1 is solid with no truly disappointing episodes, but certain subplots and characters steal the spotlight more than others.

Percy Jackson & the Olympians season 1 offers a much more faithful adaptation of Rick Riordan's books than the initial movies, but some episodes of the Disney+ series are stronger than others. This is inevitable when breaking a story up into individual installments. While this format works well for Percy's quest from The Lightning Thief, some detours the demigods face on their quest to the Underworld are more interesting than others. The episodes that directly impact the plot also tend to be more interesting, creating an imbalance between each installment.

In a couple of months, it will be a year since we lost the late, great Lance Reddick. His passing was a shock as it came so suddenly, and at a time where he had incredible works on the horizon. We haven’t even seen the last of his work as he’s due to make a cameo appearance as his John Wick character, Charon, in the spin-off Ballerina. He can recently be seen in the Disney+ show, Percy Jackson and the Olympians, where he fittingly portrays the Greek God, Zeus. Reddick would finish filming the first season just before his untimely passing.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians would finally premiere on Disney+, and the season finale featured an epic conflict with Zeus on the top of Mount Olympus. Deadline reports that the show would pay tribute to the late actor by closing out with a title card that read,...

This article contains spoilers for Percy Jackson and the Olympians.

The first season of Percy Jackson and the Olympians has come to a close, and with it, the end of an epic quest to retrieve Zeus’ (Lance Reddick) missing master bolt and stop a war between the gods. The young heroes Percy Jackson (Walker Scobell), Annabeth Chase (Leah Sava Jeffries), and Grover Underwood (Aryan Simhadri) have been through a lot over the course of their cross-country journey, from fighting Medusa (Jessica Parker Kennedy) and the Mother of Monsters (Suzanne Cryer) to getting entangled in the gods’ petty squabbles.

Now that the bolt has been found, and the clues pointing to the true culprits are finally falling into place, it’s time for the trio to finish this quest, clear their names, and save Percy’s mom from the clutches of Hades (Jay Duplass).

Here’s a rundown of everything that...

This article contains spoilers for Percy Jackson and the Olympians episodes 1-7.

With one more episode remaining, Percy Jackson’s (Walker Scobell) adventure is coming to a close in season 1 of Percy Jackson and the Olympians. With Zeus’ missing master bolt literally falling into his hands, and nearly into Kronos’, Percy is one step closer to stopping the gods’ war with each other and directing their attention to what really matters – Ares’ (Adam Copeland) betrayal and Kronos’ power grab.

Will Percy get the master bolt to Olympus before it’s too late? Will he be able to save his mom? Will we discover who the true lightning thief is? All of these questions and more will hopefully be answered in the season finale, so here’s what you need to know before diving into episode 8 of Percy Jackson and the Olympians.

When and Where Will Percy Jackson Episode 8 Be Available to Watch?...

Things are getting tense for our young trio of heroes in Percy Jackson and the Olympians as they continue to make their way across the U.S. Percy (Walker Scobell), Annabeth (Leah Sava Jeffries), and Grover (Aryan Simhadri) have narrowly escaped death not once, not twice, but three times in the short time since they left Camp Half-Blood to find Zeus’ missing master bolt. Time is running out, and the trio still hasn’t figured out who took Zeus’ powerful weapon, or why it was stolen in the first place.

With somewhat safe transportation to the west coast secured, and the promise of help from his father once they get to California, Percy and his friends push forward on their quest, despite the dangers that likely await them in the Underworld.

Here’s what you need to know before diving into episode 6 of Percy Jackson and the Olympians.

When and...

We’re halfway through season 1 of Percy Jackson and the Olympians, and the young trio continues to push forward on their quest. Percy Jackson (Walker Scobell), Annabeth Chase (Leah Sava Jeffries), and Grover Underwood (Aryan Simhadri) have been tasked with finding Zeus’ missing master bolt and returning it to Mt. Olympus before the Summer Solstice. If they don’t, Zeus has threatened to unleash the full extent of his wrath and plunge the gods into a war. No pressure or anything.

As if traveling across the United States alone as a group of tweens wasn’t challenging enough, the trio must fight several monsters, and their godly parents’ fragile egos, along the way to Los Angeles and the Underworld – their final destination.

As we wait to see what’s next for Percy, Annabeth, and Grover, here’s what you need to know before diving into episode 5 of Percy Jackson and the Olympians.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians episode 4 introduces the dangerous antagonist, Echidna, who shares a complicated family history with Percy and seeks to annihilate all demigods, considering them the real monsters. Echidna and Percy are connected through their blood relation to Gaea, the personification of the earth and the supreme mother who birthed the earliest beings of the universe. Percy and Echidna are revealed to be first cousins once removed, as Gaea is Percy's great-grandmother and Echidna's grandmother. This familial connection adds tension to their encounter and further complicates the series' family dynamic.

Spoilers are ahead for Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 1, episode 4, "I Plunge to My Death."

Percy Jackson and the Olympians episode 4 introduces a new mythical antagonist named Echidna, who educates Percy about their shared family history during her unexpected ambush on him and his companions. To fulfill the prophecy revealed in Percy Jackson episode 3, Percy, Annabeth, and...

Spoilers are ahead for Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 1, episode 4, "I Plunge to My Death."

Percy Jackson's adaptation of Echidna makes her a scarier and more psychologically terrifying villain compared to the book. Suzanne Cryer's chilling portrayal of Echidna adds to her intimidating demeanor, especially when accompanied by the Chimera. The show's decision to keep Echidna in her human form and focus on her mind games instead of her physical appearance is a smart move that enhances her intimidation factor.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians' Echidna actor fixes a decades-old book problem, and, in the process, makes the Rick Riordan villain even scarier than her on-the-page counterpart. While Disney's adaptation of the best-selling novel series of the same name is much more faithful to the source material than past cinematic efforts, Percy Jackson still makes several key book changes. So far, the show has leveraged its new medium's strengths,...

They say never to meet your childhood heroes. Even the fictional ones don’t always hold up — problematic creators, disappointing endings, stories that don’t stand the test of time — and the inevitable adaptations of those juggernaut stories risk falling flat and failing to capture the magic of the original.

But fans of Rick Riordan’s “Percy Jackson” novels — both new and old, as there is sure to be an uptick — can rejoice in the knowledge that “Percy Jackson and the Olympians,” now streaming on Disney+, is more than worthy of its source material and the massive mythology behind it. Riordan himself co-created and executive produces the series along with Jon Steinberg, the pair of them extensively involved in production and writing. For adults who discovered Percy back in 2005 or new generations joining the quest with time to spare (a seventh novel is slated for 2024 publication), this hero is one worth meeting.

Christmas may come early for half-bloods and humans alike when “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” arrives. The adrenaline from early monster chases, curiosity about Greek mythology and moving moments of friendship await in the eight-episode first season of the “Percy Jackson” TV show, adapted from the best-selling novels by Rick Riordan.

Rounding out the trio of heroes are Walker Scobell as Percy Jackson, Aryan Simhadri as Grover Underwood and Leah Sava Jeffries as Annabeth. Guest Greek gods include Jason Mantzoukas as Dionysus, or Mr. D, Lin-Manuel Miranda as Hermes and more. Creatures and monsters who will pack action into the show include Medusa, Alecto the Harpy and Echidna.

Read on for more details about the “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” release schedule:

When does “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” Premiere?

The show technically premieres Wednesday, Dec. 20, but the first two episodes dropped a day early on Dec. 19 at 6pm Pt.

Walker Scobell, Leah Sava Jeffries, Aryan Simhadri, Jason Mantsoukas, Glynn Turman, Dior Goodjohn and more of the show’s stars hit the blue carpet to celebrate the series and discussed working with Lin-Manuel Miranda, who has a recurring role as Hermes in the series, and the late Lance Reddick, who plays Zeus.

“Lin is exactly how you’d expect Lin-Manuel Miranda to be,” Scobell, who plays Percy Jackson in the series, told The Hollywood Reporter. “He’ll randomly just break into song in between takes. It’s hilarious.”

Simhadri, who portrays Grover, shared that working with Miranda was “crazy.” “Getting to work with one of the greatest minds of our generation [on Broadway] and out, I mean, how do you not freak out in that kind of situation?...

“Percy Jackson and the Olympians” star Walker Scobell has become a top contender among fans to play Link in Nintendo’s live-action “Legend of Zelda” movie. But how does the 14-year-old actor feel about the idea of portraying the hero of Hyrule?

“Actually, I don’t know. I don’t know if I’d be interested in playing Link,” Scobell told Variety at the “Percy Jackson” premiere in New York City Wednesday night. “If they came to me, I’d definitely consider it, 100%.”

Asked if he’s familiar with any of the Legend of Zelda games, Scobell said, “I have played ‘Breath of the Wild.’ I haven’t played the new one, ‘Tears of the Kingdom,’ but my dad loves Legend of Zelda. He played the games when he was younger.”

AMC has canceled the Bob Odenkirk-led series Lucky Hank after just one season, despite positive critical response. The show followed Odenkirk's character, an unlikely chair of the English department at a badly underfunded school, as he copes with a midlife crisis and his wife questions her choices. Odenkirk's current 14-year run on AMC, thanks to his role as Saul Goodman in Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, comes to an end with the cancelation of Lucky Hank.

Lucky Hank has come to an unfortunate early conclusion; AMC has canceled the Bob Odenkirk-led series after just one season, per Variety.

As his life unravels, his wife, Lily (portrayed by The Killing's Mireille Enos), begins questioning her professional path and choices.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians' latest marketing teases the dual nature of its heroes' identities.

Per Comicbook.com, Disney released three new character posters of Percy Jackson, Annabeth Chase, and Grover Underwood, each one split between the trio in both casual and armored attire. Though all three wear their Camp Half-Blood T-shirts on both sides of the posters, Percy and Annabeth's right sides feature them wearing Greek helmets while Grover's poster includes his satyr horns and pointed ears. Annabeth and Percy can also be seen wearing the traditional Camp Half-Blood necklace, though Percy's necklace -- due to him being a new camp attendee -- lacks any beads on it.

The gifts don’t stop in December at Disney+! In addition to holiday festivities all month long like the Disney Parks Magical Christmas Day Parade and the CMA Country Christmas Special, the House of Mouse streamer will soon become the home for Whovians and Demigods.

Disney+ will deck the halls with a glut of Gallifreyan adventures and the premiere of the long-awaited “Doctor Who” anniversary specials. The first of the three debuted on BBC One and on the Disney streamer on Nov. 25, but the other two David Tennant and Catherine Tate-led serials will arrive on Dec. 2 and Dec. 9. Later in the month, ring in Christmas with the franchise’s holiday special with Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson getting their full-episode debuts.

And the wait is over for “Percy Jackson” fans, who will see the beloved Rick Riordan book series get a (hopefully) respectful adaptation with the premiere of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians.

A storm is brewing, and this one could usher in the end of times.

Disney+ has released a new trailer for Percy Jackson and the Olympians, and there's a good chance it will be the streaming service's best series this year.

With the Marvel Cinematic Universe imploding on both the big screen and on streaming, and the tepid response to The Mandalorian Season 3, Disney+ is betting on Percy Jackson and the Olympians.

In the past, Disney+ hasn't put its marketing muscle behind projects outside the MCU and Star Wars universe.

If the series manages to break through, it will probably urge the streaming service to take more significant risks.

Adapting Rick Riordan's bestselling book series for the small screen already looks to be paying off.

While the two big-screen adaptations were criticized, everything we see for Percy Jackson and the Olympians looks like a natural next step for the franchise.

"I know it sounds daunting... but you won't be alone. A quest is always undertaken by three." Disney has revealed the full official trailer their brand new Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, which will be streaming in December just before the end of the year. Based on the popular novel series of the same name by Rick Riordan, the demigod Percy Jackson leads a quest across America to prevent a war among the gods. Starring Walker Scobell (from The Adam Project & Secret Headquarters) as Percy. Just starting to come to terms with his newfound supernatural powers when the sky god Zeus accuses him of stealing his master lightning bolt. Now Percy must find it and restore order to Olympus. It also stars Lin-Manuel Miranda (Hermes), Megan Mullally (Alecto), Toby Stephens (Poseidon), Virginia Kull (Sally), Glynn Turman (Chiron), Jay Duplass (Hades), Jason Mantzoukas (Dionysus), the late Lance Reddick (Zeus), Adam Copeland (Ares), Suzanne Cryer,...

As much as coming-of-age stories like "Harry Potter" tended to suck up all the oxygen in the room during our younger years, Millennials of a certain age can't help but look back fondly on the "Percy Jackson" series. Author Rick Riordan's novels took a fantastical spin on Greek mythology and cleverly blended it with all the typical teenage angst found in YA books everywhere. This approach proved so popular, in fact, that 20th Century Studios ushered in two big-budget film adaptations in the early 2010s, following the adventures of the young demigod Percy Jackson with grand ambitions of all six of Riordan's original books. That didn't exactly pan out as expected and plans for the franchise all but fizzled out with "Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters" in 2013 ... not least of all because Riordan essentially disowned the films.

The upcoming Disney+ series, however, has been working overtime to right those...

Hold fast and brave the storm as Perseus Jackson encounters mythology on a grand scale. Disney has revealed the newest trailer for the epic fantasy adaptation of the series of novels by author Rick Riordan. The novels are a best-selling book series from Disney Hyperion. The series is slated to debut with a two-episode premiere on Wednesday, December 20, 2023 on the streaming service, and it will be followed by new episodes every week.

The synopsis from Disney reads,

“Percy Jackson is on a dangerous quest. Outrunning monsters and outwitting gods, he must journey across America to return Zeus’ master bolt and stop an all-out war. After losing his mother, Percy is sheltered at Camp Half-Blood, a sanctuary for demigod children. He must prove himself and confront his origins once he discovers he too is a demigod, and will take off into the perils of pursuing enemies in search of the Underworld.

The latest trailer for Percy Jackson and the Olympians takes viewers farther into the challenges its title character will face.

The new clip follows an earlier teaser that focused on Percy’s (Walker Scobell) realization that he’s a demigod — the child of a Greek god and a human — and expands on it, showing the characters in previously unseen settings and facing off against new threats as he and his friends Annabeth (Leah Sava Jeffries) and Grover (Aryan Simhadri) race to return Zeus’ master lightning bolt to Olympus..

Percy Jackson and the Olympians is based on author Rick Riordan’s best-selling quintet of novels; the eight-episode first season, which premieres Dec. 20, will follow the events of the first book in the series, The Lightning Thief. Scobell, Jeffries and Simhadri star with Glynn Turman, Megan Mullally, Toby Stephens, Virginia Kull, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Jason Mantzoukas, Jay Duplass, Adam Copeland, Charlie Bushnell, Dior Goodjohn,...

Olympus is calling: The trailer for the upcoming “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” series, set to premiere Dec. 20, has been released by Disney+.

Based on Rick Riordan’s popular young adult book series of the same name, the show follows a 12-year-old boy named Percy (Walker Scobell) who leads a seemingly normal life until he learns he’s a half-blood: half human, half Greek god.

As the son of Poseidon, Percy must move to Camp Half-Blood, where demigod children receive protection and training to hone their unique skills. Percy is soon called to go on his first quest: He must find Zeus’s stolen lightning bolt with the help of his friends, a satyr named Grover (Aryan Simhadri) and fellow half-blood Annabeth (Leah Sava Jeffries), daughter of Athena.

In the trailer, Percy, Grover and Annabeth find their footing at Camp Half-Blood and fight mythical creatures along their quest.

The series stars Virginia Kull,...

The stars have aligned for the young hero at the center of the upcoming Disney+ series Percy Jackson and the Olympians.

In the official trailer, which was released on Thursday, the titular demigod (played by The Adam Project’s Walker Scobell) embarks on a crucial quest to retrieve Zeus’ stolen lightning bolt before war breaks out.
