With the new Percy Jackson show being actively in the works, now is a good time to look back on the movies and why exactly both author, actors and fans couldn’t have possibly appreciated it. When a Percy Jackson and the Olympians TV series was announced for Disney+, fans were immediately doubtful, but were reassured to learn that Riordan would be involved.

However, unlike the latter book series, Percy Jackson’s movie adaptations (of which there were only two made from the five books and multiple spin-offs) were utter failures in the eyes of the fans.Īuthor Rick Riordan himself has spoken out about how badly adapted the books were, and even star Logan Lerman has said on multiple occasions that the books deserved a better adaptation than the one given by the movies. The Percy Jackson and the Olympians books are a globally loved fantasy series with a modern twist on Greek Mythology, with a fandom similar to that of Harry Potter and The Hunger Games.
