Logan Lerman, the star of the two Percy Jackson movies, took to Twitter this week to share his thoughts on the news that Disney Plus is developing a reboot of the franchise for the streaming service.
Percy Jackson arrived in theaters in 2010 at the height of the Ya adaptation craze. The early ‘00s saw the success of Harry Potter and by the end of the decade, there were a number of copycats. Twilight and The Hunger Games proved to be massive franchises while others, not so much.
Circling back to Lerman, though, and here’s what he had to share:
Excited to see this! Hope it gets the adaptation the books deserve. Congrats @rickriordan https://t.co/ReE6EjJICV

As fans can tell you, Fox made two Percy Jackson movies and they were moderately successful thanks in large part to Harry Potter, which had a similar narrative.
