As a matter of fact, the filming is still under process and the post-production commenced just recently. Thus, it will be requiring almost a year to complete the entire process to provide the audiences with the absolute best. Moreover, we think that the show will be following the pattern of weekly releases like that of the other big franchise shows that are currently releasing.
Where can we watch “Percy Jackson and the Olympians”?
Without a doubt, “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” will be exclusively available to watch on Disney+. The viewers need to have a subscription to watch the entire series and you have the convenience to pick the plan that suits them the most.

Since “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is based on Rick Riordan’s series, we have a clear idea about what the series is going to be revealing. This will be a fantastical story following the life of a 12-year-old modern demigod named Perry Jackson.
