When they announced there would be a panel for thepopular animated seriesBlood of Zeus, Netflix didn’t really promise anything to fans besides some discussions about the series' themes, animation style and behind-the-scenes videos. However, this was all preparation to make a huge announcement about the Greek-themed series:it is coming back for a third and final season, which is slated to premiere in 2025.
The announcement was made by the series creators and writers themselves,CharleyandVlas Parlapanides, who also served as moderators for theSDCC panel. In an official statement, the duocelebrated the new batch of episodesand teased the ultimate challenge that Heron (voiced byDerek Phillips) will face when the series comes back:
“In Season Three, we are so excited to continue the story of Heron, Seraphim and the gods as they face their most dangerous adversaries yet, Typhon, Cronus and the Titans.”
By the end of Season 2, fans ofBlood of Zeushad a glimpse of Typhon — a lesser known Greek mythology creature that is frequently represented as a giant monster of one hundred dragon heads that could challenge Zeus (Jason O’Mara) himself. Needless to say, Typhon can be quite a challenge for Heron in the upcoming season.

Despite the revelation that took the room by storm, the group also had the chance to talk about some Season 2 elements, like the introduction of new characters Demeter (Cissy Jones), Hades (Fred Tatasciore) and Persephone (Lara Pulver).
Even though no fan gets particularly excited about the perspective of seeing one of their favorite series come to an end, at least this time Netflix won’t makeBlood of Zeusenthusiastswait so long for new episodes. The gap between Seasons 1 and 2lasted almost four years, while the final episodes are coming as early as next year. Until then though, the streamer is staying mum on details of the epic conclusion of the story of gods, mortals and demons.
