Move over "Harry Potter," and dare I say it, "Twilight," because "Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief" looks fantastic.
The film is based on the first novel in Rick Riordan's "Percy Jackson & the Olympians" series. The story revolves around a 'troubled' 12-year-old boy, Percy Jackson, who discovers that he is the son of the Greek god Poseidon during a field trip to a museum in New York City.
"The Lightning Thief" stars Logan Lerman as Percy Jackson. According to IMDb, Lerman played "Bobby McCallister" in the television series "Jack & Bobby." The film also stars Uma Thurman as Medusa, Rosario Dawson as Persephone, Kevin McKidd as Poseidon, Pierce Brosnan as Chiron, Sean Bean as Zeus and Steve Coogan as Hades.
The film is set for release on February 12, 2010. Check out the new trailer below.
