Disney+’s adaptation of Percy Jackson and the Olympians brought Rick Riordan’s books to life with joy, adventure, and magic. Perfect casting and creative storytelling made for an entertaining take on the first Percy Jackson book. Percy figured out who stole Zeus’ Master Bolt, but that’s far from the last quest the demigod goes on. And luckily, we’ll get to see at least one more. Disney+ has renewed Percy Jackson and the Olympians for season two. This makes sense, as Disney reports the show has over 110 million hours streamed to date.

The second season of Percy Jackson will adapt the second book in Riordan’s series, The Sea of Monsters. In it, mythological monsters threaten Camp Half-Blood. Percy must act to save the special haven for demigods, along with Annabeth and Grover. And the Sea of Monsters? That’s the Bermuda Triangle. It’s all going to be fine, we’re sure.

Riordan said in a statement, “I can’t wait to bring the next season of Percy Jackson to Disney+! Raise anchors. Hoist the mainsail. All hands on deck, demigods. We’re heading for the Sea of Monsters!”

Walker Scobell, Leah Sava Jeffries, and Aryan Simhadri will of course return as the main trio in the Riordan and Jon Steinberg-created series. We’re bound to see many familiar faces from season one, along with plenty of new ones. You never know which gods and creatures Percy Jackson will run into.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians season one is now streaming on Disney+.

If there’s one thing for sure, Gina Torres understands that beauty and football are a natural combination. That said, the Suits star is set to appear in an e.l.f. Cosmetics commercial during the Super Bowl this Sunday. The spot will feature a segment called “Judge Beauty,” which takes place in e.l.f. Court (a courtroom that deals with makeup-related crimes on the eyes, lips, and face, of course!) 

And what’s even more exciting, “you’re going to be reunited with some of your favorite characters if you’re a Suits fan,” as Torres tells ESSENCE. Rick Hoffman, for example, sues Torres for misusing company funds to buy overpriced makeup. Naturally, Judge Judy finds Torres guilty and sentences her to having “glowy skin” from only using e.l.f.’s new $14 Halo Glow Liquid Filter. 

In real life, Torres loves the natural coverage it leaves on her skin. “It’s true to its word,” she says. “It really is this lovely natural filter that gives you a glow. It catches light in a really beautiful, flattering way,” Torres adds. “One thing for sure is the product doesn’t make you look like you have a ton of makeup on. In fact, it actually looks quite natural.”

The 9-1-1 Lone Star actress is also excited about the Super Bowl opportunity because she genuinely loves storytelling of all kinds. “I love getting into somebody’s shoes and shedding a different kind of light on a personality, character, or a real person that you may not otherwise understand.” she says. “It helps you gain more compassion for those in the real world.” And with this project in particular, she’s just excited to bring people at home joy. “This commercial really is full of recognizable, wonderful personalities and I think people are just going to have a whole lot of fun.”
