Percy Jackson

World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) has terminated the working contracts of five wrestlers from its roster of superstars, including former WWE Champion Jinder Mahal (real name Yuvraj Singh Dhesi) and his two companions from the all-Indian-descent faction Indus Sher. Mahal became the 50th man to hold the title of WWE Champion on May 21, 2017, and is also the first wrestler of Indian descent to win that title.

Following the live-action adaptation’s two-season renewal, Deadline brings word that Netflix’s Avatar: The Last Airbender series will be going undergoing some creative changes for Seasons 2 and 3.

If you didn’t already think Disney was taking over the world, their latest announcement alongside Epic Games should terrify you.

“We Take a Zebra to Vegas,” the sixth episode of Percy Jackson and the Olympians, is one that fans of the book series have been waiting for. Percy (Walker Scobell), Annabeth (Leah Jeffries), and Grover (Aryan Simhadri) make their way to Las Vegas and enter the infamous Lotus Hotel and Casino — where the fans have been hoping a specific favorite character might make an appearance, due to what they already know about this location from Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson novels.

For the most part, Percy Jackson and the Olympians executive producer Jonathan Steinberg says that the team behind the new Disney Plus show wanted to keep the story the same as it is in the books. But there is one big change the show makes in the third episode — and it alters Percy’s view of the gods, while adding more nuance to how they fit into this world.

The festive period is finally upon us, and what better time is there to kick back on the sofa and work through your watch list? As usual, too, this Christmas is jam-packed full of great new releases on streaming, meaning that there will be plenty to keep you occupied after stuffing yourself with turkey. Among the highlights are a festive Doctor Who special to kick off Ncuti Gatwa's season as the Time Lord as well as Zack Snyder's hugely-anticipated new sci-fi adventure, Rebel Moon Part One. 

After two Percy Jackson movies that skimped on the specifics of what fans loved about Rick Riordan’s books, the team behind Disney Plus’ new series reboot made a point of getting even the smallest details just right. But there are some things that James Bobin, who directed the premiere episodes of the show, wanted to be a bit ill-fitting.

If you’re looking for new TV this week, you’ll probably want to head to Disney Plus — not officially, but that’s where you’ll find a lot of the big new releases in the lead-up to Christmas Eve this week (and, not for nothing, a lot of the family-friendly content for being home for the holidays too). There you’ll find familiar tentpoles like the MCU’s What If...? season 2 and the new Percy Jackson and the Olympians. But you’ll also find Dragons of Wonderhatch, a new world with a partially animated schtick.

Starting on December 20, viewers can start streaming the first two episodes of the first season of the highly anticipated fantasy series,. The first season of the series will be based on Rick Riordan’s first book of the series Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief, and see Percy Jackson and his friends Grover and Annabeth Chase go on a quest to retrieve Zeus’ lightning bolt and catch the real thief after Percy is falsely accused by Zeus for stealing the lightning bolt. Walker Scobell of The Adam Project will essay the role of Percy.

It’s been over 10 years since the infamous Percy Jackson & the Olympians movie broke hearts by inexplicably aging the cast and warping the novel, and fans of Rick Riordan’s beloved book series have eagerly been waiting for sweet vindication.

As each day passes, Percy Jackson fans inch closer and closer to sweet, sweet vindication — and the newest Percy Jackson and the Olympians trailer is another milestone on the path to justice.

The possessed-animatronics horror video game Five Nights at Freddy’s is less than a decade old, but a movie version has been in the works almost since the game launched, which seems especially protracted for a development process. Warner Bros. bought the movie rights in 2015, and the project moved over to Blumhouse a couple of years later. Game creator Scott Cawthon wrote and rewrote the script, while kid-horror filmmakers like Gil Kenan (Monster House) and Chris Columbus (Gremlins, the first Harry Potter and Percy Jackson movies) signed on and jumped off the project.

At this year’s New York Comic Con, the creators of the upcoming Percy Jackson show on Disney Plus once again had a comforting reminder for fans of the book series: unlike the infamous 2011 movie, author Rick Riordan and his wife Becky were heavily involved in the production from the very beginning.

A new trailer for the highly-anticipated Percy Jackson series is everything that fans have been waiting for.

Disney Plus’s Percy Jackson adaptation is hitting the streaming service a bit earlier than expected. The show is going to premiere on Dec. 20, as announced by a brand new teaser on Friday. Previously, the show was expected to hit the platform sometime in early 2024.

The first trailer for the upcoming Disney Plus series Percy Jackson and the Olympians is here, plunging us straight into the world of Greek mythology.
