The war between the Greek gods and the Titans looms in the first full trailer for Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 3.
The trailer, which debuted Monday, makes it clear that to save the world from this apocalyptic clash, Percy (Walker Scobell) will need all the help he can get. This likely means that Poseidon’s son will have to team up with Thalia (Tamara Smart), daughter of Zeus. But it’s not going to be easy to recruit her, and in the meantime Percy has a few demigods to save.
We finally get images of Levi Chrisopulos and Olive Abercrombie, who will play Hades’ children, Nico and Bianca di Angelo. This opens the main quest for Season 3, based on the third book in Rick Riordan’s bestselling series, The Curse of the Titan. While rescuing the siblings, Annabeth (Leah Sava Jeffries) is captured by Luke’s forces and taken on the titan Atlas to an enemy stronghold in California, where she is forced to bear the weight of the sky in place of the goddess Artemis or Luke.
“Victory will require sacrifice,” Zeus says ominously at the trailer’s climax.
The trailer also includes a first look at Kate McKinnon as Aphrodite and Ming-Na Wen as Hera, as well as new looks for the rest of the gods, including Lin-Manuel Miranda as Hermes, Courtney B. Vance as Zeus, and Adam Copeland as Ares. Also joining season 3 are Jennifer Beals as Demeter and Hubert Smielecki as Apollo.
The audience also gets to see one of the many monsters that Percy & co. will encounter during their mission to save Annabeth: Talos, the giant bronze automaton prototype in the Junkyard of the Gods.
Watch it above. Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 3 premieres November 20 on Disney+.
