That would be cool as well.
Nice that they're informing their email customers, but, this has already been confirmed for 2024 elsewhere.
Glad that people got their 2 years' notice!!
Which, by the way, calls into question the use of "soon."

Ah, apologies if the 2024 date was already posted! I did a quick look, but didn't see it here.
Disney's fault. Dates get posted ad hoc all over the place instead of having a central repository.
"The “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” series at Disney+ has added three new actors to its cast, Variety has learned exclusively.
Adam Copeland, Suzanne Cryer, and Jessica Parker Kennedy are the latest additions to the cast of the series based on Rick Riordan Percy Jackson novels. The trio join previously announced series lead Walker Scobell and series regulars Aryan Simhadri and Leah Sava Jeffries.
Copeland will appear in a recurring guest star role as Ares, the god of War. Ares is described as “handsome in a wicked way and arrogant, despite not always being the sharpest tool in the shed. He loves conflict and acts as an agent of chaos wherever he goes.”
Copeland is best known as Edge, a WWE Hall of Famer who returned to the ring in January 2020 after a nine-year hiatus due to medical issues. He is also an accomplished actor, having appeared in shows like “Vikings,” “Haven,” and “The Flash” as well as films like “Money Plane” and “Interrogation.”
He is repped by OAZ and A3 Artists Agency.
Cryer will guest star as Echidna, The Mother of Monsters. The character is said to be “dangerous, intimidating, and strangely maternal. She enjoys her task of challenging heroes and will test Percy’s faith in the gods.”
Cryer previously starred in the HBO comedy series “Silicon Valley” as well as the ABC sitcom “Two Guys, a Girl, and a Pizza Place.” She has also held roles on shows like “The Fosters,” “All Rise,” and “Shameless.” She is currently a series regular on the upcoming AMC series “Straight Man” starring Bob Odenkirk.
She is repped by A3 Artists Agency and Essential Talent Management.
Kennedy will guest star as Medusa, the infamous gorgon. Per her official character description, Medusa is “wronged by the gods and bitter. Medusa lives in isolation until travelers stumble on her emporium. She is welcoming to some and a threat to others.”
Kennedy is known for playing Nora West-Allen in “The Flash” as well as for playing Max in the Starz pirate epic “Black Sails.” Her other recent TV roles include “The Old Man” at FX and “Colony” at USA Network. Her film credits include “Gemini,” “The Perfect Guy,” and “50/50.”
She is repped by Gersh, Luber Roklin Entertainment, and Goodman Genow."

This should be fun. I hope we SOON hear that they are also actually making a Keepers of the Lost Cities series.

Is Russell Crow Zeus?
LOL, thankfully not. ... Man that was dumb!

I thought Crow was great at being a lecherous Zeus (pretty accurate with mythology) and even did a semblance of a Greek accent - as opposed to the "do a British accent and pretend that it is thus foreign" that happens too often in film.

That's true, about the accent. The English seem to get a lot of roles based on it.

Cool! Didn't realize it was that far into production/post production.
