Disney’s Harry Potter Replacement Is Officially Taking Over Hulu This November
A fantasy series expands its reach
Percy Jackson and the Olympians follows Percy Jackson, played by Walker Scobell, as he discovers he is a demigod and Poseidon’s son. Leah Sava Jeffries and Aryan Simhadri also star in the series, adapted from Rick Riordan’s books.
The show first streamed on Disney+. A licensing agreement brought its first season to Netflix in October, and Hulu is set to add the series in November. The Hulu release gives the Disney-owned service another chance to reach viewers before Season 3.
Netflix success and audience scores
At the time of reporting, the series held the No. 3 spot on Netflix’s Global Top 10 TV Shows chart. The article describes its Netflix run as a streaming hit.
Rotten Tomatoes listed an overall critics’ score of 95% and an audience score of 82%. The report says Season 2 received praise from critics and audiences after premiering in December 2025.
The next adaptation ahead
Season 3 is set to adapt The Titan’s Curse, the third novel in Riordan’s series. The article says the book has not previously been adapted for the screen, while the earlier film franchise stopped after The Sea of Monsters.
The report gives conflicting timing for the show’s return: it says the next season premieres next month, but also says Season 2 premiered in December 2025 and Season 3 is scheduled for later this year. It does not resolve that discrepancy.
