Disney+ has locked in a date for the next chapter of Camp Half-Blood: Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 3 will premiere November 20, roughly a month earlier than either of its two predecessors managed. Both prior seasons dropped in December — Season 1 in 2023, Season 2 last year — so the shift puts the show in front of Thanksgiving-week audiences instead, a scheduling change that on its own signals how much confidence Disney has in the franchise. Word first circulated as an unconfirmed report from TV Insider earlier in the week, before Entertainment Weekly made it official with…
