Disney’s Percy Jackson Has A Major Power Advantage Over His Movie Version

There’s already promise for the upcoming Disney+ series Percy Jackson and the Olympians, and a power detail teases a major advantage over the movies. In 2010 and 2013, Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson book series was adapted into two films, The Lightning Thief and Sea of Monsters, but didn’t adhere to his creative intent and received poor reviews critically and from fans of the books. Not only were the characterizations critiqued for age and personalities, but some key narrative changes, like how Percy and his friends got to the Underworld, let the films down.
