PERCY JACKSON & THE OLYMPIANS: THE LIGHTNING THIEF Movie Teaser Trailer

Check out the trailer for PERCY JACKSON & THE OLYMPIANS: THE LIGHTNING THIEF starring Logan Lerman, Alexandra Daddario, Brandon T. Jackson, Pierce Brosnan, Uma Thurman, Sean Bean, Rosario Dawson, Catherine Keener, Kevin McKidd, Steve Coogan, and directed by Chris Columbus.
I really didn’t expect to see anything from the movie this soon, but this is really exciting. The director behind the first two Harry Potter movies is taking on the next big series of books, Percy Jackson and the Olympians. So far I have read the first three books and really like them.
That teaser looks way better than what I expected. Logan Lerman so far looks like a really great Percy, but I already thought he did when his casting was announced. We don’t see Alexandra Daddario, who plays Annabeth, in the teaser, so we still don’t know how they are going to pass off a 23 year old for a 12 year old. I just hope they don’t change the story too much otherwise this could turn out to be the new “Eragon” (which did really bad at the box office, because unfortunately the movie was nowhere as good as the book), instead of the new “Harry Potter.”
Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief will be released to theaters on February 12, 2010. Watch the trailer below.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief Synopsis: Poseidon’s son, a 12 year old boy, sets out on a quest in present-day America to rescue his mother, return Zeus’ stolen lightning bolt and prevent a civil war from erupting among the gods.
ok so i have read all 5 books and i think the teser looks really good and they picked the perfect luke
Go to percy jackson fanfiction, go to humor as the genre and read the noob chronicles of camp half-mortal. It is exactly as the movie will be. sadly…
Okay, so…. I’ve read all the books and have been a fan for a while. And if there’s one thing that bothers me, it’s when they don’t pick actors that look similar to those in the book. Like in Eragon, (ugg!! don’t even get me started there.)
I mean, you can’t be that picky with everything, but there are some requests that are really simple. Grover is black?!! I’m in no way trying to be racist, but Grover quite frankly is not black! Not just a little difference. And Annabeth is suppose to be blond! If they really want that girl, who looks like 20 anyway, the least they could do is die her hair!!
I could go on, but, meh, whatever -_- . Just like Eragon, it’s gonna suck, and they might not even make a second, like Eragon.
the actors are all wrong especially 4 grover, annabeth, hades, and ares no offense 2 any1 but hes just 2 fat uhh
I’ve read the books and they are uh-mazing!! I am concerned if this movie will end up just like eragon did… crap Buuuut hopefully it will be good. The trailer looks amazing looks can be deiceiving tho.
I do like MOST of the cast. Percy is GREAT (I loved him in hoot)but i HATE annabeth! She’s NOT blond and doesn’t even look athletic or anything! I do agree with the grover thing, i mean black? not being racest just concerned.I think they chose a good chiron too!
If this movie ends up good, I’m hoping to see the rest of the books in movies and in theaters!!
THE ACTRESS PLAYING ANNABETH HAS DARK BROWN HAIR!!! ANNABETH IS BLONDDDDD!!!!!!!! Gerrrrr… >:(
o my god!! other peeps have read eragon!! oops. off topic back 2 PJO. O MY BEEEEEEEEEP GOD!!! ALEXANDRA DIDDARIO?!?!?! seriously? ive read all the books and had high hopes (obviously 2 high) 4 this movie but this? ugh. geez.
i cant bleve it. logan lerman is HOT and grover is uh… iffy and omg. theres been gossip bout the other characters and arrrrrrrrg!!!!! how much can this dude mess up?! i have such lower hopes for this movie then i thought possible. its fuckin crap (exuse my languge)….
WTH?! She doesnt even have blonde hair, much less curly! They have this new invention! It’s called a CURLING IRON! WTH?! A lot of people are saying “Oh, they casted her because she’s a good actress and all that stuff for the part!” REAllY?
If she was good for the part then she would have no problem dying her hair or atlest wearing a wig….
amia
I hate Annabeth!!! they should have chosen annasophia Rob for that part!! Im so pissed she is like my favorite character and they are ruining her! is it that hard to have an actor were a blond wig!!! WTH!!
i swear are they tring toruinin my movie.they got a girl who isnt blond playing annabeth nwo that is just a discrace to the books.and whats with a black grover i didnt expect that did u.i was also not trying to be racist,but come on.i really was hoping that the movie would of been just as great as the books all five of them.
they really should of cast the people a lot better. BUT THE PERSON PLAYING PERCY IS GREAT. BUT I AM STILL GONNA SEE THE MOVIE I WANT TO SEE FOR MY SELF IF THE MOVIE IS WORTH WATCHING AND SEE THE OTHERS IF THEY MAKE ANYMORE.i really hope they can pull this movie as it stands.
DO U AGREE
Ugh, I wish they would have looked into the book for the character things. I wish I could see the others, but Percy is PERFECT! The others… not so much. I haven’t seen Chiron or Luke, but I hope they’re a little better than the freaking brunette Annabeth or the black Grover (not to be racist or anything…) No offense to anyone, though, of course.
~Sam~
it was F-I-N-E!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve read the book and i really like it..And im happy to see it in movie but like the other’s comments they have to look into the book to see the characters.. And please don’t make grover black..Damn, the writer described each character perfectly, stick to that..so readers dont get disappointed to see the movie expecting it to be great as the book all five of them..
First off,pepole who didnt like the movie are stupid.IT WAS EVERITHING I IMAGIND!DEAL W-I-T-T I-T!!!!!
