As his friendship with Annabeth (Jeffries) evolves, Percy discovers that he has a Cyclops for a brother. This revelation leads to a series of mysterious and adventurous events that propel Percy on a journey to set things right, taking him off the map and into the perilous Sea of Monsters, where a secret fate awaits him.
Fans are thrilled to see the trio Walker Scobell as Percy, Leah Sava Jeffries as Annabeth, and Aryan Simhadri as Grover returning, and they are also excited to meet the new characters who will shape the narrative.
