\"Percy, you are special. When you're ready to hear what the gods have in store for you, they'll tell you,\" his mom advises him.

Even more mind-blowing, he's given the quest of finding a stolen lightning bolt that belongs to Zeus (the late Lance Reddick), with help from his friends Grover (Aryan Simhadri) and Annabeth (Leah Sava Jeffries) -- and if he can't, \"there will be war.\"

The trailer also shows Percy at a demigod training camp and meeting the trickster messenger god Hermes, played by EGOT-winning \"Hamilton\" creator Lin-Manuel Miranda.

Additionally, Percy and his friends are shown facing off with all manner of mythical creatures turned real.

The show -- which also features Megan Mullally, Jason Mantzoukas and Adam Copeland (WWE Hall of Famer Edge) playing Ares, the god of war -- kicks off with a two-episode premiere on Dec. 20.

Disney is the parent company of ABC News.
