    anna sophia robb? josh hutcherson? no way, the cast is fine the way it is. sure they’re aiming high with annabeth because of her age but usually the cast thats chosen by directors tends to work best. so anna sophia rob and josh hutcherson? EWWW

  6. I say Says:

  8. eman/killerd Says:

    horible percy should be that kid from the bridge to teribithia and you should make an animated TV seiries on cartoon network too because the movie will not be enough for percy jackson and the olympians lovers and call it THE GREAT ADVENTURES OF PERCY JACKSON or THE GREAT HALF-BLOOD ADVENTURES OF PERCY JACKSON, maybe even THE GREAT DEMIGOD ADVENTURES OF PERCY JACKSON. think about it

      A cartoon series…? I don’t think that would work. But I do agree with your choice of Josh Hutcherson.

  9. Bethany Says:

    I think the people who chose the cast should switch the part of Selena and Annabeth. At least thats how I imagined it when I read the book….

  10. swanktown Says:

    Logan Lerman as Percy would be good, but he’s 17!!! He’s supposed to be playing a kid who’s in sixth grade! I don’t think he could pull it off; Josh Hutcherson would be a lot better.

  11. Hattie Says:

    Anna Sophia Robb and Josh Hutcherson would not be good for the movie cuz it’d b kinda weird scince they were both in bride to tereabithia
