Good news, Half-Bloods.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 3 will premiere on Nov. 20, Disney+ has announced.

The news arrived as stars Walker Scobell (Percy Jackson), Aryan Simhadri (Grover Underwood), Charlie Bushnell (Luke Castellan), Tamara Smart (Thalia Grace), Levi Chrisopulos (Nico di Angelo) and Olive Abercrombie took to the stage at San Diego Comic-Con on Thursday.

Leah Sava Jeffries, who plays Annabeth Chase, could not appear due to her prior commitment filming The Cheetah Girls: Next Gen. Even still, she sent over a video message for the fans that teed up a look at the opening act of season 3.

The third season of Percy Jackson and the Olympians is based on the third installment in author Rick Riordan’s bestselling Percy Jackson book series, The Titan’s Curse.

“The stakes are higher than ever before as Percy is faced with the sudden disappearance of Annabeth and the impending Great Prophecy provided by the Oracle of Delphi, dictating the fate of Olympus,” according to an official description for the season. “As foretold by the Oracle of Delphi, one demigod child of the ‘Big Three’ is fated to raise Olympus to new heights or bring it crashing into ruin, with their own life hanging in the balance.”

Disney+ also shared a teaser video to announce the release date. It finds Percy Jackson in pain as he holds up the entire sky.

“It was my choice to hold the weight. The Titan’s curse. I knew the risk. But if I needed to sacrifice myself to save the world, to save my friends, was it really a choice?” Scobell’s Percy says.

Riordan and Jonathan E. Steinberg created the series. They both executive produce alongside Dan Shotz, Craig Silverstein and Rebecca Riordan.

Disney is the parent company of ABC News and Disney+.

Fighter jets intercept civilian plane over Geneva, Ohio

▶ Watch Video: F-16s intercept planes flying in restricted airspace in New Jersey Fighter jets intercepted a civilian plane that was flying through restricted airspace Tuesday over Geneva, Ohio, where President Trump was attending a teen athletic event, military officials said.F-16 jets dispensed flares to catch the attention of the pilot during their encounter, according to the North American Aerospace Defense Command, or NORAD, which monitors U.S. and Canadian airspace. The interception took place at around 6:15 p.m. ET on Tuesday, said NORAD, as the civilian plane violated a temporary flight restriction over the area. It was safely escorted from the airspace after flares were deployed."Flares are employed with the highest regard for safety, burn out quickly and completely, and pose no danger to people on the ground," said NORAD officials, who said the flares may have been visible to people on the ground.Temporary flight restrictions are issued by the Federal Aviation Administration and shared with pilots through Notices to Airmen, or NOTAMs. Both NORAD and the FAA have encouraged pilots to check those notices prior to taking off. The restriction over Geneva was put in place as Mr. Trump traveled to Ohio on Air Force One for the 2026 Patriot Games, a youth athletic tournament that has been heavily backed by the White House and attended by many of the president's supporters.Fighter jets were also scrambled over Bedminster, New Jersey, over the weekend, where one of Mr. Trump's golf courses is located. Two general aviation planes violated the temporary restrictions in place over Bedminster on Sunday, also triggering interceptions by NORAD jets, the military command said. The planes in those encounters were also safely escorted from the restricted area, according to NORAD.The FAA issues temporary flight restrictions for a variety of reasons, including around large events attended by high-profile political figures, like the World Cup final in New Jersey last month.
