‘Percy Jackson’ Replaces Showrunners Jonathan E. Steinberg & Dan Shotz With Craig Silverstein (EXCLUSIVE) – Beragampengetahuan

Today, we at beragampengetahuan have learned that co-showrunners Jonathan E. Steinberg & Dan Shotz have stepped down from Percy Jackson & The Olympians on Disney+. The two helped showrunner the series’s first season alongside the original author, Rick Riordan. The duo is headed back to finish work on their adult FX series The Old Man, starring Jeff Bridges.

We have also learned that episode eight writer Craig Silverstein has taken over as showrunner for season 2. Silverstein has showrun multiple shows, including Turn: Washington’s Spies and Nikita. Avatar: The Last Airbender season 1 showrunner Albert Kim has also come over to Executive Produce season 2, as he worked with Silverstein on Nikita. Production is expected to begin later this Fall, according to Rick Riordan’s Blog. When we contacted Disney for a comment, they said this info was incorrect. However, Becky Riordan has confirmed on the news in a recent comment on Threads.

“Theatrical monologues are a legit form of screenwriting. If you watch Jon’s [Steinberg] previous works you see it is his preferred style. Craig [Silverstein] who is show running season 2, monologue isn’t his style of storytelling as his writing style is more action driven which one needs for season two even though since the show is based on a book and the show is a story driven narrative. Craig even was asked that question by the network after reading the first script. “

Percy Jackson & The Olympians season 2 has no set release date
