The Grey sisters are three ancient, supernatural sisters who share one eye and one tooth among them. Their names are Deino, Enyo, and Pemphredo. They are based on figures from Greek mythology, where they are portrayed as serving as guardians of certain knowledge.
Daniel Diemer, who will play Tyson
Diemer will play Tyson, a Cyclops and the half-brother of Percy Jackson, sharing the same father, Poseidon. Despite being a Cyclops, Tyson is gentle, kind-hearted, and very loyal to Percy.
Timothy Simons plays Tantalus
According to the report from Variety, the character is described as “sardonic, manipulative, openly hostile, and rarely in a good mood… seeing as he is cursed with eternal hunger and thirst, but can never eat or drink. Tantalus has been released from imprisonment in the Underworld to become the interim Activities Director at Camp Half-Blood, having replaced Chiron (Glynn Turman) who is under suspicion of having ties to Kronos.”
