Streaming service Disney + is launching a series about the adventures of Percy Jackson, the protagonist of Rick Riordan's novels. The writer himself informed his subscribers about this on the official page on the social network Twitter.

"We are very excited about the possibility of creating a series of the highest quality, which will closely follow the storyline of five books about Percy Jackson, starting with" The Lightning Thief "in the first season," Riordan commented. He also added that he and his wife Becky will be "involved in making the show." He did not specify the timing of the work and the possible date of the premiere.

Recall that the events of the books have already been transferred to the big screen. In 2010, Fox released a movie called Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief. The main role was played by Logan Lerman, Alexandra Daddario, Sean Bean, Pierce Brosnan, Steve Coogan, Rosario Dawson and others also starred in the movie. The adaptation grossed more than $ 220 million at the box office with a budget of $ 90 million. Three years later, the sequel "Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters" was presented to the audience. It turned out to be less successful -199 million dollars.
