    What's the story

    The second season of Percy Jackson and the Olympians has officially announced its newest cast member: Hollywood actor Andra Day.

    The news was revealed during a virtual panel at Disney's D23 Expo in Brazil.

    Day will play the Greek goddess Athena, a key character in Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson series.

    Athena is the mother of Annabeth Chase (Leah Sava Jeffries), one of Percy's (Walker Scobell) closest allies and a fellow demigod.

    Career highlights

    Day's acting journey so far 

    Day's acting career took off with her role as Billie Holiday in Lee Daniels's 2021 biopic The United States vs. Billie Holiday.

    The performance won her a Golden Globe for Best Drama Actress, a Grammy for Best Soundtrack, and an Oscar nomination for Best Actress.

    Prior to acting, Day was known as an R&B singer with popular works such as the 2015 album Cheers to the Fall.
