Percy Jackson Show Reportedly Has Higher Budget Than Marvel & Star Wars Projects

As we continue to see TV shows be the biggest draw on screen right now, budgets seem to continue to get higher and higher for these shows. Even thought you might think Star Wars projects cost the most, we were surprised to find out differently.

As the most high profile series on Disney Plus, you’d imagine that the Star Wars and MCU stories would also be the most expensive, but insider Daniel Richtman is now claiming that the in-development Percy Jackson could be bestowed with that particular honor. We don’t know much about the latest adaptation of Rick Riordan’s novels other than the fact that the author is on board this time around, having been shut out when the big screen franchise was active, but Richtman says that the show will have a larger budget than what’s been given to the Marvel and Star Wars projects.

 

Right now Percy Jackson doesn’t have a release date or a schedule to start production, it remains to be seen what the true budget will be in the end. Either way, it is surprising to use that such a high budget is predicted.
