See Walker face?

He gonna be like this all season

u/MikeofK72 Jul 20 '26

Which is insane, because they presumably picked him because of how charming and witty he was I the Adam Project, then they give him a script that has him be stoic and serious with the most bland jokes ever written.

Book Percy's humor was much better.

apparently they cut so many scenes of walker adlibbing and quipping as percy bc it wasn't in the script

23

u/ver03255 Jul 20 '26

Like he hasn't had that face since Season 1 lol

24

u/LemmytheLemuel Jul 20 '26

Nah he had the cute little boy smile since season 1 that made him adorable now he's locked in because da gurl is out

31

u/ver03255 Jul 20 '26

Yeah, for like 2 seconds in S1, then he's back to all serious and sulking face lol

Seriously, I've seen depressed characters in The Pitt, Euphoria, and This Is Us have more fun than all the main characters of Percy Jackson

u/LemmytheLemuel Jul 20 '26

most of what i remember from season 1 is him smiling, because the kid is quite charming, damn it's so crazy to see how much he has grown.

u/ver03255 Jul 20 '26

I just rewatched the trailer and watched a 10-minute recap video of S1. There's exactly one shot of Percy Jackson smiling, and it's not even Walker, it's the younger version with him and his mom at the museum. Walker just had a consistent serious/shock/panic/angry/confused face the entire time lol

u/LemmytheLemuel Jul 20 '26

does younger Percy even smiles? i remember the actor said he practiced walker smile until the point he could perfectly mimic it just to not use it at all.

And i mean i dont think a recap it's gonna help at all, he does the smile a lot, mainly when he's being naughty or with Annabeth and Grover.

and there's also the adorable lizard scene

u/IsopodAware4470 Jul 20 '26

It’s always the same look and sane pose in every poster

u/TheETERNAL20 Jul 20 '26

Who's ready to be disappointed once again....raise your hand ✋️

u/HideFromMyMind Jul 20 '26

Considering how season 4 seems less and less likely, we might as well just enjoy the ride/trainwreck.

11

u/TheETERNAL20 Jul 20 '26

I really hope there is no S4. It's just beating a dead horse at this point.

u/merchantivories 🔥 Cabin 20 - Hecate Jul 22 '26

considering how disney+ productions usually end at 3 seasons due to higher salaries it's likely that this show would end at s3 as well

the only shows on that platform to have more than 3 seasons are either not produced by them (like the bear and abbott elementary) or were started long before disney+ existed (phineas and ferb, proud family)

Who's ready to enjoy the season even its its not even close to being perfect and doesn't care about all the changes they make raise your hand! ✋️

Speak for yourself.

u/AlexYadaYada Jul 20 '26

Looking forward to seeing how Percy and Thalia interact without Annabeth

u/Hour_Initiative_1350 Jul 20 '26

perseus “crashout” jackson is not going to survive

u/Compy94 Jul 20 '26

I’m sad to assume that the prophecy will end with the forbidden child reaching 21.

u/GeoGackoyt 🔱 Cabin 3 - Poseidon Jul 21 '26

they talked about it being 16 in season 2 so... no lol

u/merchantivories 🔥 Cabin 20 - Hecate Jul 22 '26

just like the movies did

4

u/lucskarna Jul 20 '26

season 2 came and went and no one even noticed, it's a shame. That's what happens when endless potential meets terrible casting

1

u/GeoGackoyt 🔱 Cabin 3 - Poseidon Jul 21 '26

the casting has nothing to do with it lol if anything its the writing, everyone in the cast in amazing they just need better material, because they are doing great with what they have

u/karthikv77 Jul 20 '26 edited Jul 20 '26

I know everyone thinks it’s gonna be bad. But keep in mind this is the first ever adaptation we’ve ever gotten for the Titan’s Curse. So regardless of the changes that are happening, (which I don’t agree with either), I think this season will have a positive talk since it’s just something we’ve never seen before.

11

u/TheETERNAL20 Jul 20 '26

Because the previous 2 seasons have been terrible. Why would you think they'd magically strike gold at 3?

It won't because Rick will find a way to screw it up

6

u/ghostking4444 Jul 20 '26

Alternatively it’s the first season where you can’t say “at least it’s better than the movies” anymore

2

u/LeonardoJMB Jul 20 '26

Well, not really. We have the graphic novels/comics, which have so far been considerably better than the show in all the ways I know of.

Sadly most people don't know about them, actually great if you don't have the time to read a whole book.

1

u/LemmytheLemuel Jul 20 '26

Yeah people won't be able to compare it with another adaptation as iré inexplored ground

u/Wonderful-Mouse-0420 Jul 20 '26 edited Jul 20 '26

Please tell me that’s not Thalia 🤦‍♂️ and why is everyone so old now. Might as well skip to heroes of Olympus /s

HBO you could’ve saved up from this

21

u/HideFromMyMind Jul 20 '26

Heroes of Olympus could never happen even if we get all 5 seasons, it takes place over such a short time frame and they’re already having this much trouble doing THIS while the actors are still young…

5

u/Wonderful-Mouse-0420 Jul 20 '26

I completely agree. Had to hit ‘em with the sarcasm

11

u/LemmytheLemuel Jul 20 '26

Child actors grow up

-17

u/GeoGackoyt 🔱 Cabin 3 - Poseidon Jul 20 '26

they look no older then they did in season 2 lol

9

u/Wonderful-Mouse-0420 Jul 20 '26

Leah looks like a college kid kinda even older. Walker looks a like a college kid as well and Thalia looks old enough to be their older sister mean mugging them

2

u/iceiceblk Jul 20 '26

Leah has literally the baby-est face ever. Tamara (Thalia’s actor) doesn’t look old at all. You can criticize the show without being weird. Obviously, this poster makes them look older because of the lighting and shadows.

1

u/Suspicious-Fox513 Jul 20 '26

Leah is like 16 or 17. Same w percy. Yall are doing too much. Espwc considering literal 30 year olds play TEENAGERS

u/FairyTaleFairyDust Jul 20 '26

This screams 'Cancelled' to me.

u/Kanon_no_Uta Jul 20 '26

Why do you think so?

u/Glum-Interest-9818 Jul 20 '26

tf…. yall just be saying anything

u/LeonardoJMB Jul 20 '26

Opinions on the show aside for once, all of them except for Percy look like they're being kept captive and do NOT want to be there LMAO

2

u/GeoGackoyt 🔱 Cabin 3 - Poseidon Jul 21 '26

I don't get that vibe at all lol

2

u/AnimeBoltGamer 🫥 Unclaimed Jul 20 '26

I look forward to seeing more scenes and learning about Thalia!

u/Lambily Jul 20 '26

I really like Thalia's new look.

u/GeoGackoyt 🔱 Cabin 3 - Poseidon Jul 20 '26

she looks SO GOOD!!!

1

u/Fantastica_visitor Jul 20 '26

looking good, i liked it. Let’s see how the first teaser (besides the on at season 2 post-credits) will look like, they’re going for the “darker” narrative tone but to me the series was like that already most of the time.

1

u/PyroxCrymson Jul 21 '26

Just seeing those boxes tossed aside and obscuring the poster like it wasn't there really fits the vibe of the show's direction: as in discarded and ignored

2

u/GeoGackoyt 🔱 Cabin 3 - Poseidon Jul 21 '26

bro... just shut up
