The Percy Jackson & The Olympians book series, which is based on children whose parents are mystic Greek gods, has already been made into films, but not for any of the series's sequels, and does not have a musical. However, a Netflix Plus TV show based on the novels was a hit in December. One branding specialist told FEMAIL that although studios may be running out of original plans, there is still a lot of money to be invested in adaptations.

In the Percy Jackson and the Olympians television series, the beloved character and his families will be back to life nearly two decades after Rick Riordan first published his Percy Jackson novel series. The books were first brought to life in two films, Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Theif and Percy Jackson's Sea of Monsters, both 2010 and 2013.

On July 19, Hollee and Paul Muller learned that their 11-year-old son, Will, had been kicked out of St. John LaLande school. The school said it was because "your family's values are not in accordance with those of our school." Other families characterized the Muller family as stalwarts of the parish and school, as volunteer basketball and track coaches, and organising a 'open gym' for the children on Tuesday night. In addition to being a popular student, Paul Muller, 15, and other parents told The Kansas City Star that Will was well-liked. When hardline Father Sean McCaffery (left) became pastor of the parish a year ago, the family's dissatisfaction with the school began. 'The priest came rolling in hot,' Hollee Muller wrote in the newspaper. I don't think that being blatantly homophobic is a Catholic Church teaching.'
