Disney announced some news about the upcoming second season of Percy Jackson and the Olympians at D23. Season two filming got underway earlier this month, and three familiar faces have been cast as the Gray Sisters. Sandra Bernhard will play Anger, Kristen Schaal will take on the role of Tempest, and Margaret Cho will play Wasp.
Walker Scobell, Leah Sava Jeffries, and Aryan Simhadri star in the Disney+ series based on the fantasy novels by Rick Riordan. In the story, twelve-year-old demigod Percy Jackson (Scobell) is accused by the Greek god Zeus of stealing his thunderbolt. He must race to find it and restore order to Olympus. In the second season, Percy returns to Camp Half-Blood a year later, where he learns that it is under threat from the forces of Kronos, and his best friend Grover (Simhadri) has gone missing. He must venture into the Sea of Monsters to find the Golden Fleece. Daniel Diemer is joining the cast as Tyson, Percy’s cyclops half-brother.
Deadline revealed the following about the newly cast roles:
In Rick Riordan’s ever-expanding world of mythology, the Gray Sisters are old women who share one eye and one tooth, and they operate a “taxi firm” in New York City. They encounter a few of the main characters after scooping them up while they’re on the run in Sea of Monsters.
Bernhard will portray Anger, the Gray Sister in charge of collecting cab fare from heroes who call upon the taxi. Anger impatiently awaits her turn to use the one eye shared between the Sisters.
Schaal will portray Tempest, who currently has the coveted eye shared between the sisters and uses it to peer at the Heroes, read their future, and tease them about their crushes and social lives.
Cho will portray Wasp, the main driver of the Gray Sisters Taxi. She takes the heroes on a high speed and hair-raising journey to Camp Half-Blood. Even though she’s blind most of the time, she’s truly seen it all.
