The fantasy adventure film
Percy Jackson is getting its list of Greek gods.
Uma Thurman and
Pierce Brosnan have been tasked to play Medusa and Chiron, respectively. Also on the list are
Sean Bean, as Zeus;
Kevin McKidd as Poseidon; and
Melina Kanakaredes as Athena.
The film, which will be directed by Chris Columbus, centers on Poseidon’s half-human teen son (Logan Lerman) who goes across modern-day America to save his mother, return Zeus’ stolen lightning bolt and stop a war between the gods. The film is set for a February 2010 release.
