Première série Disney+ sur Hulu – ne manquez pas !
Disney+ and Hulu Collaboration Continues to Strengthen
In a remarkable display of their growing partnership, Disney+ and Hulu will jointly release the first episode of the highly anticipated original series Percy Jackson and the Olympians on both platforms. Simultaneously, the series will also premiere on Disney+ on December 20, with the first episode available on Hulu until January 31. This announcement was made by Percy Jackson author Rick Riordan at the series’ premiere in New York on Wednesday night.
Expanding the Reach of Disney’s Latest Original Series
This initiative aligns with Disney’s recent efforts to maximize the exposure of its original series. For example, the Star Wars series Andor and the Disney+ original series Goosebumps have utilized a similar strategy, making their content accessible on both platforms. The release of Percy Jackson and the Olympians on both Disney+ and Hulu suggests an emerging trend in Disney’s content distribution strategy.
Converging Platforms: The New “One-App Experience”
Furthermore, this integration of content distribution is reinforced by Disney’s recent beta launch of the “one-app experience.” This innovative approach brings together Hulu and Disney+ for bundle subscribers, offering a seamless and consolidated platform. The official launch of the merged app is slated for March, substantiating Disney’s dedication to enhancing user experience and ensuring broader access to their content.
A Riveting Tale of Adventure and Discovery
The series, as evidenced by its captivating trailer that has garnered 90M views and nearly 2 million engagements, follows Percy Jackson on a transformative journey across America. Fueled by the urgency to avert an impending war, Percy must navigate through perilous encounters, outsmart divine adversaries, and restore Zeus’ master bolt. Crucially, his companions Annabeth and Grover play pivotal roles, guiding Percy in his quest for self-discovery and purpose.
This compelling narrative touches upon themes of belonging, identity, and destiny, resonating with audiences as Percy grapples with a sense of estrangement and seeks his true purpose in the world.
Stellar Cast and Creative Team
Percy Jackson and the Olympians showcases a talented ensemble, featuring Walker Scobell as Percy Jackson, Leah Sava Jeffries as Annabeth Chase, and Aryan Simhadri as Grover Underwood. The series is brought to life by the creative vision of Rick Riordan and Jonathan E. Steinberg, with a team of seasoned executive producers, including Dan Shotz, Rebecca Riordan, and Ellen Goldsmith-Vein. This collaboration aims to deliver a captivating and immersive viewing experience, under the direction of accomplished professionals in the entertainment industry.
