A brief glimpse (feel free to check it out above) reveals Percy seated in a blue chariot pulled by two robust white steeds, seemingly gearing up for a jousting match. It’s both thrilling and perilous. Although the sneak peek is brief, it sets the stage for the intense, action-packed journey that viewers can expect from The Sea of Monsters.

Introducing alongside Walker Scobell as Percy are Leah Sava as Annabeth and Aryan Simhadri as Grover in the upcoming season. One intriguing piece of news is the arrival of Tyson, Percy’s half-brother who happens to be a cyclops with an important role.

As a movie enthusiast, I’m thrilled about Daniel Diemer joining the cast of Percy Jackson! His passion and skill truly elevate Tyson’s character, making the second season an exciting prospect.
