Disney’s Percy Jackson and the Olympians promises to be a faithful adaptation of the books. With author Rick Riordan heavily involved in the production, every detail has been painstakingly sifted through to ensure connections to Riordan’s Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief. While the movies diverged heavily from the books just by changing the characters’ ages, the show features a younger cast with more honest connections to the source material.Yet, by changing from a written to a visual medium, Percy Jackson and the Olympians will still feature some major changes. Actors and producers have already commented on some of those changes, while the trailer revealed more. Before the show releases on December 20, it’s worth considering what else will differ from the books.In the show, Argus is going to be entirely missing. While his absence won’t change too much about the narrative, choosing not to include him removes one of the more alien characters in the show. Grover may be able to hide his legs, but Argus can never truly cover all of his many eyes. It will be a minor narrative change that still has a major impact on the dynamic of the camp staffers.
