The Sea of Monsters is calling in the first trailer for Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 2—coming to Disney+ this December.
It’s been a while since we checked in with Percy Jackson and the Olympians. But with the upcoming second season premiering in time for Christmas, the Sea of Monsters is definitely calling us home-and today, Disney+ unleashed the first trailer for the new season. As expected, it is packed to the brim with Greek Mythology, doubling down on the brilliance of the sensational first season. But what awaits us on Percy’s latest high-stakes quest? Will we encounter hordes of new mythological monsters as we enter uncharted waters? And do they stand a chance against the son of Poseidon? Hit play on the trailer below and find out.
SYNOPSIS
After Camp Half-Blood’s protective border is breached, Percy Jackson embarks on an epic odyssey into the Sea of Monsters in search of his best friend Grover and the one thing that may save the camp — the legendary Golden Fleece. With help from Annabeth, Clarisse and his newfound cyclops half-brother Tyson, Percy’s survival becomes essential to stopping Luke, the Titan Kronos, and their impending plan to bring down Camp Half-Blood — and ultimately, Olympus.
OFFICIAL POSTER
What a phenomenal new trailer. The new season looks set to dwarf its predecessor in terms of stakes, scale, and creatures, and we could not be more excited. Just the sight of a Cyclops, a giant octopus, the Stygian Witches, and an abundance of colossal monsters is scratching my Ray Harryhausen itch. But if the trailer isn’t enough to get us to return to Mount Olympus, Disney+ also dropped the first poster for the show. It features our fearless trio as they head off into the Sea of Monsters and the waiting tentacles of the giant octopus. Take a look below.
CAST & CREW

SEASON ONE
The new season needs to step it up to top the show’s first season. In our review of the season opener, our reviewer Thomas Storai mentioned, “Percy Jackson and the Olympians is off to a fantastic start. The series takes its time to develop the story and the characters properly. This one is a faithful adaptation of the original novel! Walker Scobell is amazing, as is Percy Jackson; he was the right choice for the role. And Leah Jeffries is equally as good as Annabeth.” Read his full review here.
RELEASE
This new series looks sensational and boasts some incredible production value. From its amazing visuals to its colossal monsters, the show is a shoo-in to shoot straight to the top of our Christmas wishlist. The big question is whether the latest adaptation of The Sea of Monsters will stay true to the book. We’ll have to wait until December to find out.
Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 2 Sets Sail December 10 with Two-Episode Premiere on Disney+.
