Season 3 of Percy Jackson and the Olympians premieres Friday, November 20, 2026, on Disney+, and Disney is picking up the pace this time: two episodes drop on day one, then two more every Friday until the eight-episode season wraps on December 11, 2026. Below is the full week-by-week release schedule, the start time in both time zones, and where to stream it in the US.
This season adapts The Titan’s Curse, the third novel in Rick Riordan’s series, and the cast and crew have promised the darkest chapter yet. If you want to keep pace with each drop without getting spoiled, here is exactly when every episode arrives.
Percy Jackson Season 3 full release schedule
All eight episodes roll out over four Fridays, two at a time. These are the confirmed episode titles, revealed by Disney at New York Comic Con, mapped to each release date.
| Episode | Title | Release date | Start time |

The release pattern changed for Season 3
If the schedule looks faster than you remember, that is deliberate. Seasons 1 and 2 opened with a two-episode premiere and then settled into one new episode per week. Season 3 keeps the double-episode premiere but sticks with two episodes every week for the entire run, which is why an eight-episode season closes out in just four weeks.
The move to Fridays is also new. Season 2 released on Wednesdays; Season 3 shifts the weekly drop to Fridays on Disney+, lining the show up with a weekend-friendly binge window.
What time do new episodes drop?
New episodes become available at 3:00 a.m. ET / 12:00 a.m. PT on their release day, the same slot Disney+ used for Season 2. In practice, that means West Coast viewers can start the premiere just after midnight on November 20th, while East Coast fans will find both opening episodes waiting at 3:00 a.m.
Where to watch Percy Jackson in the US
The series streams on Disney+, and because of the bundled Disney catalog it is also available on Hulu in the US. A standard Disney+ subscription is all you need; the first two seasons are already on the platform if you want to rewatch before the premiere. There is no separate purchase and no weekly rental.
What The Titan’s Curse brings to Season 3
The third book is where the series grows up, and the show is leaning into it. Season 3 opens with Annabeth missing and Percy forced into a cross-country rescue that pulls the demigods toward a prophecy none of them wants to fulfill. Walker Scobell returns as Percy Jackson, with Leah Sava Jeffries as Annabeth Chase and Aryan Simhadri as Grover Underwood.
The new faces matter here. Dafne Keen joins as the goddess Artemis and Holt McCallany takes on the Titan Atlas, two roles that anchor the mythology the season is built around. Riordan remains a hands-on executive producer, the same close involvement that has kept book readers on board since the adaptation began.
Expect a heavier tone than the first two seasons delivered. The cast has described this chapter as the most dramatic to date, trading some of the earlier adventure-of-the-week energy for higher stakes and harder choices.
