Walker Scobell shares reason of why he missed high school prom

Walker Scobell shared major reason behind why he skipped his high school prom which was held on Sunday.

The Adam Project star took to his Instagram stories to share the news that he will not be attending the event as many of his potential dates have received death threats from obsessive fans.

He wrote, "Just to let everyone know, I will not be attending prom."

"Please stop sending death threats to EVERY teenage girl who could remotely be associated with me based on their proximity to where I live," he continued. "It’s not fair to them or to their families."

He expressed the view that death threats have no place in any conversation and found it "weird" to have to address the issue directly.

Scobell stars in Percy Jackson and the Olympians as the titular son of Poseidon.

Other cast members include Leah Sava’ Jeffries, Aryan Simhadri, Charlie Bushnell, Dior Goodjohn, Daniel Diemer and Glynn Turman.

It’s season 2 premiered in December 2025, and has been renewed for Season 3 ahead of its Season 2 premiere.

The third season is expected to be released late 2026, and will follow the events of Rick Riordan’s third book in his Lightning Thief saga, The Titan’s Curse.
