On December 20, the first two episodes of the TV adaptation of Percy Jackson and the Olympians will debut online on Disney+.

Based on the best-selling book series by award-winning author Rick Riordan, the small screen adaptation tells the fantastical story of a 12-year-old modern demigod, Percy Jackson (Walker Scobell), who’s just coming to terms with his newfound divine powers when the sky god, Zeus (Lance Reddick), accuses him of stealing his master lightning bolt. With help from his friends Grover (Aryan Simhadri) and Annabeth (Leah Jeffries), Percy must embark on an adventure of a lifetime to find it and restore order to Olympus.

The cast includes Virginia Kull as Percy’s mom Sally, Adam Copeland as Ares, Jessica Parker Kennedy as Medusa, Megan Mullally as Alecto/Mrs. Dodds, Timothy Omundsen as Hephaestus, Toby Stephens as Poseidon, Jay Duplass as Hades and Lin-Manuel Miranda as Hermes.

Here is a trailer for Percy Jackson and the Olympians:

Posted in Movies, Recommendations, Reminder, Television, Video on December 13, 2023| Leave a Comment »

The UPtv movie Dial S for Santa will debut on December 17 at 7 PM.

When insurance investigator Lana Lawton (Sarah Dugdale) returns home for Christmas, her only goal is to spend time with her mom (Lynda Boyd) and cheer up her nephew who is upset that his military father won’t make it home for Christmas. When she arrives, however, she discovers that a string of robberies along Main Street has the shop owners scratching their heads over who could have done it. Seeing her chance to earn a big promotion by doing some real P.I. work, Lana puts all of her efforts into trying to solve the case by any means necessary.

Now, with Christmas Eve approaching and her suspect list narrowing, Lana must convince Nick (Julian Haig), the police chief, to let her help on the investigation. As the pair start spending more and more time together on the case, they begin to see each other as more than co-investigators. Can Lana and Nick solve the case in time for Christmas and will Lana’s lead suspect disappear on Christmas even with a sleigh full of stolen goods? It may just take a lot of faith and a good bit of Christmas magic for a happily ever after!

Here is a trailer for Dial S for Santa:
