Although the new ‘Percy Jackson’ photo and the long-awaited announcement have thrilled fans of the books written by Rick RiordanSome have noticed that there is a small detail in the protagonist’s clothing: a beaded necklace that hangs from his neck without any explanation, since this should not be his, but his colleague, also the protagonist Leah Jeffries.

In the new “Percy Jackson” photo, Walker Scobell appears as the son of Poseidon and wears a necklace described in the books on which the story is based, the only inexplicable detail is that it is actually another character: Anaebth Chase, played by actress Leah Jeffries in the disney+ series.

In itself, this necklace has excited fans who are eagerly awaiting the series because this was a detail that has not been adapted in the films that FOX has brought to the cinema, and in view of the fact that the Disney + production will be more faithful to the novels by Rick Riordan, the accessory used by Walker Scobell aroused enthusiasm among the public.

However, it is not known why Walker Scobell appears in this photo with a necklace that does not belong to Percy Jackson, given that this character has a similar accessory but without many grips and without the characteristic ring that identifies Annabeth Chase, so fans have started to make theories , although at the moment everything seems to indicate that this is a nod to the fans and nothing more.

The beaded necklace worn by Percy Jackson and the Greek demigods

In the Percy Jackson books that have become famous for years, it is explained that each the demigods of Camp Half-Blood they are given a necklace in which they hang a different socket each year they spend there which is why in “The Lightning Thief” Annabeth Chase has 5 and son of Poseidon none.

In the first book, Percy Jackson receives his first catch with a dark color and a trident in the center identifying the most important event of that year, later he receives more as the story of the books written by Rick Riordan progresses, so it was expected that Walker Scobell might eventually wear a multi-beaded necklace, which would point to different seasons for the history of the son of poseidon.
