Actor Timothy Omundson will be cast in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. His recent revelations will delight fans!
Percy Jackson and the Olympians takes up the story of the novels already adapted to the cinema. This new version, this time piloted by Disney, should make it possible to fully exploit the universe of the saga. By offering a modern version of the Greek mythology, the series transposes fantastic adventures into a modern universe. The gap between ancient stories and 21st century pop culture alone guarantees a perfect basis for a rich scenario! The series, whose filming has just begun, should not land on Disney+ before 2024. Nevertheless, the first echoes of filming suggest the best! Actor Timothy Omundson has confirmed this trend.
Percy Jackson and the Olympians will therefore allow Timothy Omundson to make a comeback expected by fans. The actor will take on the role of the god Hephaistos, master of the forge and god of fire in the legends of ancient Greece. It is on his Twitter account that Timothy Omundson shared his excitement after filming his first episode in the saga. “ I finished filming my first episode last night. This series will blow your mind. It’s nothing like the other projects I’ve been involved in. It’s gonna be amazing! Thank you Disney+!”, he wrote. His words obviously have enough to stir up the excitement of fans of Percy Jackson !
Percy Jackson and the Olympians should bring together a varied audience!
Percy Jackson and the Olympians should stick perfectly to the line of Disney+. The tone of the novels, and therefore of the series, is perfect for bringing together a varied audience. Young and old alike should revel in these adventures in which ultramodern references come to shake up the myths known to all. We remember, for example, the fight against Medusa using a smartphone, to dodge the creature’s deadly gaze! We will of course have to wait a little longer before seeing the first images of this series. It is therefore hoped that its quality will not be a myth !
