While fans continue to wait for the release of Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 2, the series has already added some major players to the Season 3 cast. The Disney+ show recently took to social media to confirm the recruitment of Deadpool & Wolverine star Dafne Keen, as well as Saara Chaudry, while also revealing the characters they’ll be playing.
Dafne Keen will play Apollo’s twin sister in Percy Jackson Season 3
On August 21, Percy Jackson and the Olympians announced via an Instagram post that Dafne Keen and Saara Chaudry will be joining the series’ cast in Season 3.
The update featured images of the actresses, along with the caption, “Meet the newest stars ✨ to join #PercyJackson and the Olympians Season 3.” The post also included information regarding their roles in the show, disclosing that Keen will don the mantle of Artemis. Meanwhile, Chaudry, 21, will make her Percy Jackson debut in the third season as Zoë Nightshade.
Keen joins the cast of Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 3 as one of the 12 major gods that exist in the show’s universe. Notably, Artemis is the Goddess of the hunt and the Moon, and possesses a hoard of abilities, especially in the combat area. On the other hand, Chaudry’s Zoë Nightshade appears as the loyal lieutenant of Artemis in the Percy Jackson lore.
As such, Keen and Chaudry will make their maiden appearance in Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 3 alongside the previously announced Levi Chrisopulos and Olive Abercrombie, who come into the cast as the children of Hades, namely, Nico and Bianca di Angelo. Confirmed earlier this year, the show’s third installment will follow Rick Riordan’s The Titan’s Curse novel.
While fans wait for more information on Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 3, they can catch the second season, which adapts Riordan’s The Sea of Monsters and comes out on Disney+ on December 10, 2025.
