Percy Jackson & the Olympians
Summary
Percy ( Walker Scobell ) and his best friend Annabeth ( Leah Sava Jeffries ) and Grover ( Ayran Simhadri ) will soon be on a novel quest to cross the Sea of Monsters and find the fabled Golden Fleece . Percy Jacksonseason 2will doubtlessly include more monsters and figures from Greek mythology — butSea of Monsterslacks the presence of the Olympians . In add-on to featuring the Hellenic gods more , the writers could change Sea of Monsters to spring up other quality , break up some issues with how the gods care for their children , and create a more inclusive cast .
The plaster bandage of Percy Jackson and the Olympians for Disney+ include a mixture of rising talent and old hand thespian to make for Rick Riordan ’s books to life .
7Introduce The Riordan Universe’s LGBTQ+ Characters
There are plenty of queer characters in Riordan’s later books, but it would be great to see them sooner.
Overall , Riordan ’s Bible feature a various casting of LGBTQ+ characters . However , most of the queer characters within the Hellenic realm of Riordan ’s earth are not confirmed to be so untilThe Heroes of Olympusseriesor a later subsequence , while most of the grammatical gender - nonconforming reference are relegated to theMagnus Chase and the Gods of Asgardseries . It would be a gravid addition to thePercy Jacksonshow if some of the LGBTQ+ characterswere introduced earlier , or new ones were created , or type whose gender or sexuality is never discussed were confirmed to be queer .
Additionally , the Olympians themselves are almost all nance - coded in Greek mythology . For case , Apollo is epicene , while Artemis is asexual ( according to Riordan , as these terms would not be used in the context of any ancient texts ) . It would further develop the setting and put up great LGBTQ+ representation if the writers could encounter time for the Ubermensch to hash out this part of the mythology .
6Annabeth Doesn’t Need To Have A Crush On Luke
The storyline of Luke betraying Annabeth can be just as effective if their feelings for each other are platonic.
A subplot of thePercy Jacksonbook series is thatAnnabeth has a crush on Luke(Charlie Bushnell ) for eld when Luke only ever sees her as a small sister . Her feeling become more complicated when Luke sides with Kronos , and he repeatedly strain to convince her to see things his way . All in all , this is not a necessary plot point in time , which make Luke a less nuanced scoundrel because of how he manipulates Annabeth . The story would be just as in effect if Annabeth only ever saw Luke as an old pal , and was still devastate by his betrayal .
5Tone Down Tantalus (Or Replace Him With Someone Else)
The Olympians having Tantalus run Camp Half-Blood only proves Kronos and Luke’s point.
InSea of Monsters , Thalia ’s Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree is poison and is slowly dying , meaning that the wards around Camp Half - Blood will presently go down with it . Chiron ( Glynn Turman ) is fired as body process conductor under distrust of brace the tree . Chiron is temporarily replaced by Tantalus , who proves to be a sadistic instructor . Tantalus was antecedently banished to Tartarus for feed the gods a sweat made with human flesh . He also introduces the potentially life - threatening exercise of chariot racing at Camp Half - line of descent .
While the gods might not be the best parents , they do have some regard for their nipper . It seems improbable that they are all ok with Tantalus running coterie , or Luke is right , and they are all completely cruel . Tantalus ' antic could be tone down from the book in season 2 — he can still be unlikable without being outright violent . Alternatively , he could be supervene upon with another unlikable figure from Greek mythology .
Disney will need to puke devotee - favorite characters including Athena , Blackjack , Tyson , and Thalia Grace for Percy Jackson and the Olympians time of year 2 .
4Show (Or Discuss) Mortal Parents Besides Sally Jackson
Annabeth, Luke, and Clarisse’s mortal parents are all important to their stories.
Percy also satisfy Luke ’s female parent later in the serial publication , but if Luke ’s male parent Hermes ( Lin - Manuel Miranda ) is coming back ( he seem inSea of Monsters ) , it could be used as a room to introduce her soonerand further modernise Luke ’s backstory . at long last , almost nothing is hump aboutClarisse ’s ( Dior Goodjohn)life before camp . Her character will hopefully be further develop next time of year when she is given the pursuit for the Golden Fleece , cause it the perfect time to read more about her childhood .
3Introduce Athena
The showrunners should not put off introducing Annabeth’s mother for another season.
The gods themselves are among the highlight of time of year 1 , played by various talents include Adam Copeland as Ares and Lance Reddick as Zeus . However , Sea of Monstersonly features Hermes , who already made his first appearance in season 1 . In other words , season 2 is going to be strapped for appearances from new Olympians , so it would be meet to introduce Annabeth ’s female parent Athena . Athena could believably show up to help the heroesin a moment of dire need . Her appearance would further Annabeth ’s story , as well as mark the beginning of the goddess ’ tense relationship with Percy .
Disney+ has renewed Percy Jackson and the Olympians for time of year 2 , and manufacturer revealed that the upcoming episode will preface more Olympians .
2Tyson’s Backstory Needs To Be Different
Poseidon didn’t really help Tyson until Tyson could help Percy.
If the writers want to keep painting Percy ’s fatherPoseidon ( Toby Stephens)as a sympathetic flesh , they are live to need to make some changes to Tyson ’s storyline . Tyson is the Cyclops Logos of Poseidon and a nymphand spends his childhood live in the alleyways of New York . Tyson is constantly attacked by other fiend until the administration of Percy ’s new school get hold him and has him enrolled , although he is still homeless . He then goes to camp with Percy , where Poseidon claim him as his son .
It is implied that Poseidon get off Tyson to school so that he and Percy would get to know each other , and would help one another in the future . This still does n’t frame Poseidon in the good light , since he did nothing to help Mike Tyson before . Despite all this , Tyson believes that Poseidon really cares for him and has protected him . A recentupdate about Michael Gerald Tyson appearing inPercy Jacksonsuggests that the writers will be developing his tarradiddle and might address some of these issues .
1Poseidon Should Appear
The absence of Percy’s father is a weakness of the second book.
Poseidon is notably abstracted fromSea of Monsters , which plays into Percy ’s foiling about his father unexpectedly claiming Tyson . Poseidon ’s appearance in season 1 are compelling , and it would n’t spite the story for him to show up and have a conversation with Percy at some point , even if it is just for Percy to say they both could ’ve been nicer to Tyson . Poseidon could also be the fibre to tell Percy about the Great Prophecy ( rather than Annabeth ) , which could be a powerful conclusion to the next time of year ofPercy Jackson and the Olympians .
