Joining him on his quest are his friends , Annabeth and Grover . While Grover is a terrified satyr , Annabeth is the girl of the Hellenic goddess of wisdom , Athena .
Though she has penny-pinching ties to Annabeth , Rick Riordan revealed that Athena will not be come along inPercy Jacksonseason 1 . In an consultation withEntertainment Weekly , Riordan explained that a cameo appearing was discussed during product , but it would have been an unfitting and traitorous depiction . There just was not enough room for Athena , so Riordan plans to bring her into a future season . hold in out his quotation mark below :
We blab about it . We agreed it would be interesting , we bat her around , and we did some versions of scripts where she made an appearance , but we just had so much else going on . We did n’t have the real estate , because when you bring her in , you want to do it right . So we ’re going to hold open her for , hopefully , a future time of year .
Percy Jackson’s Quest To Stay Faithful To The Books
Percy Jacksonis a task that is designed to be close related to the books that inspire it . Riordan has been heavily involved with the production , and his goal has been to ensure that every member of the cast and crew aligns with his sight for the franchise . Unlike the flick , which featured much old versions of Percy and his friend , the Disney+ series feature the castas 12 geezerhood old , just as they are in the al-Qur’an .
The entire first season is also align with the first book alone . That allows character growth to be flourish on in - profoundness , instead of in the limited runtime that a picture show offers . Characters keep back their magic items , include Percy ’s Riptide and Annabeth ’s unseeable Yankees hat . The episode titles even borrow chapter titles from the book , let in " A God buy Us Cheeseburgers " and " I Plunge to My Death " .
The show is also specifically tailored to be a family - friendly production , which is on the dot what the books were meant to be . Every chemical element of the show has been created with faithfulness in mind , and it ’s a major part of Athena ’s absence . Athena does not seem inPercy Jackson and the Lightning Thief , so including her would imply rewriting the story for a simple cameo appearance . To stay decently faithful to the books , Percy Jackson and the Olympiansseason 1cannot let in Athena .
The first episode ofPercy Jackson and the Olympianswill premiere on December 20 .
