The series, based upon Greek mythology, thrusts it into the modern world, such as in the case of Percy, a demigod and the son of Poseidon, navigating the battle world where the old myths become alive. He battles Medusa and confronts Ares, reflecting the age-old human versus god conflict. The new Disney+ adaptation is the promises of a fresh take on the mythical tales, introducing them to new audiences struggling to balance identity with the burden of afflicting Percy.
