I can confirm from personal viewing experience: Walker Scobell nailed Percy’s character so well. This kid has a future.
I'm so disappointed that I'm not going to get to watch the premiere next week Wednesday because I don't have a Disney Plus account but as soon as it starts to stream on other streaming platforms I'll be binge watching those two episodes and all the other follow up episodes
@@juanitamorgan5475it’s not going to be on other streaming platforms, unless you mean piracy.
@@juanitamorgan5475i believe i heard that the first episode is going to be released on hulu!!
@@juanitamorgan5475 Actually Riordan confirmed at the premiere that it’ll be available on Hulu as well. So if you have that, you’re good
@@juanitamorgan5475 It will be on Hulu at the same time as its on Disney+, if that’s helpful
Why am I almost crying at Walker's reactions to being cast like he's my own son
same 😭😭😭
LITERALLY
LOL YEAH LITERALLY BUT I MEAN, 😭 YEAH WALKER IS OUR SON THE BELOVED SON IN THE FAMILY‼️ 😭💕
Same I haven’t even met this guy 😭
SAME
Perfect casting. Percy is Walker, Walker is Percy.
YES
Better well when the Percy Jackson movies came out it was such a mess there were too like the lightning thief and the sea of monsters with Logan lerman
REAL
nope
I wouldn't say perfect, but again it could've been worse
Absolute perfect casting. Walker Scobell is going places, and this is just the beginning.

0:30 "I don't wanna let the Percy Jackson fans down- I don't want to let MYSELF down." i dont know why but that just makes me so giddy, you KNOW hes giving his all. Walker Scobell? nah, Perseus Jackson. Son of the sea god.
When walker said “we love you bob” I started getting House of Hades flashbacks
OMG
OMGGG 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Walker, Leah and Aryan are perfect for the roles! Leah has such Annabeth answers in interviews, Walker is hilarious like Percy, Ayran is literally just perfect for Grover, if you disagree literally fight me
I agree.
I know, the casting is perfect
annabeth isnt perfect at all
Maybe not from looks but she acts a lot like Annabeth and personality is a lot more important than how the character looks imo@@HappyBob701
@@HappyBob701 Personality wise, yes. She is
I am most of all happy for Rick Riordan. To have gone through what he did with his stories, and to finally see it be adapted in the way we all wanted, is so sweet. I really never thought we would get the show/movie we deserved, the way Harry Potter did, but here we are. And for those questioning the cast (very few are now, ha!) it is so clear to me that they were meant for these roles. Walker is percy jackson, through and through. It feels like fate. Middle school me is freaking out over this. We all have to make our friends and family watch this- they deserve a second season. Rick Riordan deserves to tell the full series. It would be so cool to watch these actors grow up and grow into themselves. Ugh I am so hyped.
if i was a filmmaker and wanted to do an adaptation of a book that means so much to kids/teens. i'd have the author be at my side and create something that is faithful to the book but also something that is its own thing. i read what happened to rick riordan during the making of the first film and that was heartbreaking. a man put so much into these books and then to see hollywood bastardize it into something that ended up becoming mid. disney did the right thing in having riordan on board.
Guys idk if he doesn’t look like Percy all that matters is that he acts like him I mean look at how great he is with a sword, how sassy he is, and sarcastic
I think he looks just as I imagined him but with blonde hair. I would say that about Annabeth though because she looks nothing like our Annabeth but if she does the character justice, it’s alright. I’ll personally still imagine her with blonde hair and gray eyes but I’m hoping she does a wonderful job!
@@zoefoley6818same. I hope she does great and is amazing in the role even if I already have a completely different looking annabeth in my head. I’ll probably never picture her when I read the books (I imagine Viria’s art for most characters) but it doesn’t mean she can’t do her justice on the screen. 😊
@@HyperWolf Couldn’t have said it better!
@@zoefoley6818from the reviews I’ve seen so far she absolutely nailed Annabeth, and Walker absolutely nailed Percy, and Aryan absolutely nailed Grover
So before this I had never heard Walker’s voice before and I’m just gonna say THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT PERCY SOUNDED LIKE TO ME IN MY HEAD
He’s absolutely perfect. You got this Walker!
Perfect casting doesn't exi......
You don't know how much we need a Percy Jackson behind the scenes series
walker fr breath, walks, speaks, eats and bodies percy jackson he is so percy in and out 🥹 i’m so excited for this show AHHH 😭🙏🏼💕
I believe in Walker and this show, I can't wait for this
The more the day of premiere is near, the more I cannot believe that this is the truth and not a dream
THIS SHOW IS GOING TO BE AMAZING
He’s the perfect Percy bc he has the Percynality I love him sm
Dear gods, that’s Percy Jackson
^ My literal reaction
I got into the movies a decade ago, and that’s when I started getting into the books, which have more details. This is what we fans need for great storytelling these days, not that silly, unnecessary rehash for Harry Potter. This series is like Stranger Things and Harry Potter combined!
I think that was Disney’s intention. Production started in early-2021 when Stranger Things 4 was still being filmed. Disney knew they had a property that was action packed and starred middle school age protagonist.
The Duffer brothers had stated that Stranger Things would end at season four or five. Disney knew that Percy Jackson would probably fill the void once Stranger Things ends.
Honestly, we should hope that the series does well enough on Disney+ for them to do the rest of the series.
The Disney plus series is going to be fire compared to those two flops they made a few years I'm so excited I can't wait to see it🎉
@@juanitamorgan5475can confirm it is amazing
He’s the perfect Percy Jackson
I’ve watched all of Walker’s films so far and I can say that he’s going to nail the role of Percy Jackson. He’s absolutely perfect. I don’t care that he doesn’t have jet black hair. I’m just happy that the characters were cast at the right age, and that the team is very dedicated to making the best adaptation. I couldn’t ask for a more better team at adapting this amazing series. I can’t wait until next week. I won’t be able to hold in my excitement. 😊
Casting Walker as Percy was the best choice ever
It's really interesting to see him doing those fighting sequences this series is going to be amazing and I can't wait to start watching I haven't finished the books yet but you know I'm excited for it
This makes me so happy I'm literally crying😭Walker is such a great kid and I know he's the Percy we all prayed for so badly. I love him. He deserves the world.
I first saw Walker in the Adam Project so to see him be casted as Percy on one of my fav books is so exciting!
Rick Riordan chose the best person to play Percy. Walkers joy of being picked made me happy
He was smiling so big when he learned he got the part :)
I cannot fathom the fact this show is coming out in FOUR DAYS. I am beyond excited, I love the books, the cast is amazing, this couldn't get better!!
Walker is definitely going places
He may not have black hair XD but I think he's perfect for the role. I freaken love that kid
Walker Scobell is going places , guess
A. Tartarus
B, Oscar awards
so far, this kid seems like the perfect percy!!!!! sooooo excited about the show!
You know long before the news of Walker being casted as Percy came out, I always thought he reminded me of someone. Someone witty and brave, loyal and funny. And then the news came out and I was like, "Ohhh that's who it reminded me of."
I'M SO EXCITED I FEEL LIKE A CHILD ALL OVER AGAIN! PJO books were part of my childhood like no other, Walker will do great 😭💙
i have never been happier about a casting in my life 😭😭
So cool to see training for the battle scenes!!😆Also, when Rick told him that he was going to play Percy…dam, that made me so happy, just seing how happy he was😭💙💙💙
I really looking forward for this show . It looks really charming and epic , the cast is really good and the production is really good . I can't wait to watch this movie ⚡⚡⚡
It's a TV show
@@SophiaPNoriegaYes , each episode is one hour long .
@@matiasrocha317 but I heard it will be between 30 or 40 minutes, but it is not confirmed
@@littledog3553( Runtime may vary )
I definitely am so excited for this because, I know that all the actors embody their characters since Rick picked them out as well
One particular scene that I want to see when the series comes out is when everyone finds out that Percy is the son of Poseidon and the Trident comes over his head which signifies that he definitely is Poseidon's son the most powerful god of sea
@@juanitamorgan5475 that & I wanna see the Chihuahua turned Chimera, Ares vs Percy, & Hades not being the villain for sure
Not gonna lie, I like seeing percy with blonde instead of the book's black. It makes him look even more godly like omg!😍🤧
I'VE NEVER BEEN SO EXCITED FOR ANYTHING LITERALLY I've been waiting for this since 8th grade I'm a senior now 😭😭 can't wait
DEMIGODS UNITE!
Just like we imagine Daniel Redcliffe as Harry Potter, Soon we all imagine Percy Jackson as Walker Scobell.
I can't imagine how it feels, when the characters I imagined while reading changes suddenly. This show gonna be the greatest show 2024 and Disney Plus will crash on December 20
I LOVE that finally we have a Percy with that book personality😍😍😍 This boy is going places!
I warched the first 2 episodes on Sat at a screening. This show is going to blow your expectations away!
Spoil it for me please
Perfectly executed ❤
I CAN NOT WAIT! HE'S THE PERECT PERCY JACKSON! 💙💙
Walker is THE PERFECT percy. He's all we've hoped for and more.
someone tell this kid hes doing amazing
Walker Scobell is Percy Jackson yes i can't wait for tv show based on the book series 😂😂😂😂😂
With the new cast, Riordan feels that everyone involved is "perfect," even if they don't look exactly like how they might have been written in the original books. With Scobell, Riordan noted, "Did I care that his hair is a different color than what is described in the book? Not at all. He just felt like Percy.” With Simhadri's Grover, Riordan similarly added, "Does he look exactly like I describe him in the book? No. That doesn’t matter."
"Leah impressed me from the moment I met her. She has that sort of steel that makes her a leader, but there’s a bit of vulnerability to her," the author went on to say about Jeffries. “Now, again, does she look like Annabeth looks in the books? No. Was that important to me? No. If anything, it was a massive benefit to broaden the cast in terms of representation.”
there are tears in my eyes y'all
i love this child
THIS IS PERCY, his voice is spot on🔥🔥
I just read the first book and enjoyed every chapter. I hope that this show manages to recapture the feelings I felt reading and that it is good enough to the point that the whole series will be adapted.
This sneak peak already is very promising
Walker is perfect for Percy they are just the exact same I am super excited for the show 💙🩵💙🩵💙
walker is so amazing. he is so talented and i hope to work with him some day.
He is perfect for Percy. I’m so glad he was casted and I’m excited to see the rest pf the episodes
Honestly he is perfect for the role. I physically cannot imagine anyone else in this role especially after seeing him act in The Adam Project
I am back here again cause the look on walker's face was priceless.
He was definitely so perfect for this roll! I can't wait to watch! ❤❤
walker scobell now and forever
It’s so beautiful I want to cry
I'm not crying, you are

Walker is so Percy and i love it❤
I love this! I’m a huge fan of the books since finding the first one in the school library so to finally see it come to life in a true way is truly a dream come true(ps: 3 days left!!!!) I also enjoyed this featurette as an upcoming film maker!
Perfect cast looking forward to seeing this big fan of Percy Jackson 👍🏾
I'm way too excited for this can't wait for it to come out
This show is gonna be perfect! I can't wait to watch it, Walker has definitely proved himself to be an awesome fit for ol' Seaweed Brain. I'm gonna watch the show, love every second of it, and then probably beg to watch it again.

OMG HE'S RIGHT THE VOICE IS PERFECT that's what it was
4 days left. 4 long, hard days until we finally get an adaptation of one of the best book series I've ever read. I just have one question, will they do Heroes of Olympus? I would love to see how Walker and Leah handle Tartarus and that penultimate battle of The 7 and the Olympians vs the Giants.
Perfect
Best late bday present I could ask for!
I’M SO EXCITED!!!😆🤙🏽🌊⚡️
