Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief
Percy Jackson is the son of Sally Jackson, and the step son of Gabe Ugliano. Gabe and Percy do not get along at all. Percy never knew his biological father and has a history of being kicked out of a different school every year. At the beginning of the story, he learns that he is a demigod, or a half blood, because he is Poseidon's son. Along with the joy of discovering his fathers identity, Percy finds danger because Poseidon was not supposed to have more children because because of a treaty with his brothers, Zeus and Hades. His best friends are Grover, a satyr, and Annabeth, daughter of Athena, though he and Annabeth are constantly getting on each other's nerves.
Percy is very caring and courageous, and because of his heritage, he has some control over water, including breathing underwater and, even after being completely submerged in water he always comes out completely dry. Also, whenever he steps into water and is sick or hurt, the water will heal him, something he relies upon many times. Percy has been accused of the theft of Zeus's lightning bolt and goes on a quest to find it to prevent an Olympian war between Zeus and his father, Poseiden. This he must do while being constantly chased and attacked by monsters sent from Hades. Meanwhile, all is not as it seems, another is behind the growing tensions with a totally different agenda.
The film will be released on February 12th in the USA. The Australian release date is February 11th. See the trailer below:
