A teaser trailer has been released for the upcoming family film, Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief. The film’s directed by Chris Columbus and stars Pierce Brosnan, Uma Thurman, Sean Bean, Kevin McKidd, Catherine Keener, Rosario Dawson and Steve Coogan.
According to Coming Soon, the film centers on “Poseidon’s son, a 12-year-old boy,who 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.”
Check out the trailer after the jump.
Percy Jackson is set for release on February 12, 2010. I’m a sucker for anything that uses Greek mythology as a backdrop so I might actually give this film a shot.

The book series seemed to ride the success of Harry Potter, and now this movie does also. I've read the books (despite being aimed at readers below my age) and I don't know if it's because of the intended audience, but I felt it would do well as a movie or better yet a made for TV series.

It has a very different feel from the book already. The original fans of the books are a bit anxcious as to how it will end up. Chric Columbus is directing it, that's great. Chrics has done so much. To me, I guess I expected something funnier. That's what set the Percy Jackson books apart. They're funny. It'll be interesting how it all plays out in the end.

I am a huge fan of the series! And I'm really excited about the movie! But I'm afraid that like most movies that originated from books the movie will not live up to the amazing books that were written. Whether it's exactly like the book or not, I'm still stoked to see it!
