Boss Rush Banter: Lance Reddick’s Appearance Bittersweet in Percy Jackson Finale

Until recently, I thought I first met Lance Reddick through the Horizon Games. He voices Sylens, and through that adventure, I grew familiar with his voice as Sylens helped Aloy with her journey.

Then I realized I had seen him before; he plays General Caulfield in White House Down.

Later, I would meet him again in John Wick, where he played Charon the Concierge. Then I discovered that he had been cast as Zeus in the Disney+ Percy Jackson series.

Unfortunately, Reddick passed away last year shortly before the release of John Wick 4.

Coming into this first season of Percy Jackson and the Olympians, I knew we would only get a limited view of Reddick’s Zeus as he isn’t in the first book much. We get one short scene in the season finale, mainly between Percy and Zeus.

And Reddick was perfect in the role. I knew he would be, but it was bittersweet to watch. Knowing that I won’t get to see him finish the series in that role, I won’t explore more of this world with him there.

It’s a similar feeling to playing the Horizon games. Sylens is a large part of the world, and how they will continue the series without Reddick is one of my biggest concerns as we wait for game three.

Reddick’s appearance as Zeus was the icing on the cake in this delightful adaptation of Rick Riordan’s series.
