omundson I posted about this role the other day but have more to say, I was honored and proud when rickriordan & danshotzy invited me to be a part of their incredible creation, percyseries , not just because it would mean joining a Dream List of guest stars , like legends, lin_manuel , ratedrcope , meganomullally and the late great, thereallancereddick Just to name a FEW, but also because Hephaestus š„āļø, like myself and 1 in 4 Americans, are disabled * note my Cane, hanging off my cover alls, in the lower left corner of this photo. The incredible props department built it to the same specifications as the one I use in real life, although mine , sadly is not made of goldš§. There was never any question of whether I should try and hide my disabilities , which I canāt do anyway. They are a part of who I am and Iām beyond grateful to Rick, Dan and #JonSteinberg for giving me the opportunity to play this strong, dignified and thriving character , as many in my community actually are, but you rarely get to see on your screens. #RepresentationMatters #PerformersWithDisabilities šŖš»this show was made with so much love and is going to knock your socks off. Coming to Disney + December 20th!
