Disney+ is working on a series adaptation of the Kane Chronicles book series, which was written by author Rick Riordan. The series follows the adventures of Carter and Sadie Kane, two siblings who discover they are descendants of ancient Egyptian gods and are drawn into a world of magic and mythology. If the project is officially greenlit, Angela Robinson—known for her work as an executive producer and writer on shows like True Blood and The L Word—will help bring the story to life. She will executive produce the series and co-write it with Riordan, who is most famous for his Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, which inspired a popular line of books and movies centered around Greek mythology.
The Kane Chronicles originally served as a bridge between the Percy Jackson series and Riordan’s later Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard series, which explores Norse mythology. The books are part of a larger universe that includes various mythologies and have been well-received by fans of young adult fiction. With Disney+ expanding its lineup of original content, this adaptation could bring Riordan’s unique blend of mythology and adventure to a wider audience.
Currently, the project is still in the development phase, and no official announcement has been made about whether the series will move forward. Details such as the format—whether it will be a traditional episodic series or something else—and a potential release date remain unknown. Fans of Riordan’s work are eagerly awaiting more information about this new project, which could further solidify the author’s presence in the world of television.
