Percy Jackson Season 3: Release Schedule, Cast and the Book Behind It

The third season of Percy Jackson and the Olympians is scheduled to arrive on Disney+ on November 20, 2026. Its eight episodes will be released in pairs over four weeks.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians is scheduled to return to Disney+ on November 20, 2026, with the first two episodes of a third season based on Rick Riordan’s The Titan’s Curse, Deadline reports. The eight-episode season will roll out in pairs, with the final two episodes scheduled for December 11.

Walker Scobell plays Percy Jackson and Leah Sava Jeffries plays Annabeth. The cast also includes Olive Abercrombie as Bianca Di Angelo and Levi Chrisopulos as Nico Di Angelo, two characters from the book being adapted.

The new season follows a renewal announced in March 2025, more than a year and a half before its scheduled premiere. For viewers planning when to watch, the key change is the pace of release: the season has the same episode count as its predecessors, but arrives over four weekly drops.

When the eight episodes are scheduled to arrive

The Disney+ rollout begins with a double bill, then continues with two episodes each Friday for the following three weeks. The reported schedule is:

  • November 20: Episodes 1 and 2
  • November 27: Episodes 3 and 4
  • December 4: Episodes 5 and 6
  • December 11: Episodes 7 and 8

That schedule gives viewers the choice of watching each pair as it arrives or waiting until December 11, when the complete season is scheduled to be available. Although the rollout spans four weekly release dates, three weeks separate the premiere from the final pair.

Each of the first two seasons also contained eight episodes. The third season therefore matches their length in episode count, while the two-at-a-time release pattern changes how quickly viewers can get through the new story.

Disney+ is the reported destination for the Season 3 premiere. The series is also streaming on Netflix, but whether the third season will be available there, and when, remains unclear. Viewers looking for the new episodes should use the Disney+ schedule rather than assume the show’s existing Netflix availability covers the upcoming season too.

Who joins Percy and Annabeth in The Titan’s Curse

The Titan’s Curse is the third book in Riordan’s original Percy Jackson series. Its selection provides a reference point for readers who know the novels, while the casting announcements offer a preview of some of the characters appearing in the television version.

Disney announced the casting of Abercrombie and Chrisopulos at San Diego Comic-Con in 2025. They play Bianca and Nico Di Angelo, respectively; the two characters are children of Hades. The announcement came after the March renewal and established two additions to the cast well ahead of the new season’s release.

Other performers include Kate McKinnon as Aphrodite, Saara Chaudry as Zoë Nightshade and Ming-Na Wen as Hera. They join a series that draws on Greek mythology alongside Percy’s story, with Scobell and Jeffries continuing in their lead roles.

Footage has offered a look at several of those characters. A trailer unveiled at D23 in August included glimpses of Aphrodite, Zoë Nightshade and Hera, as well as the Junkyard of the Gods. A full-length trailer followed in November.

A separate teaser circulating after the Season 2 finale showed Percy and Annabeth in what appeared to be a school dance scene. Together, the previews give viewers a look at the returning leads and some of the new faces before the first episodes arrive.
