Walker's best friend must be so stoked to know that his best friend is playing Percy Jackson himself

leah’s “nah i don’t know why you thought you were doing that” was HILARIOUS

4: 18 "It's funny cause I'm like crushing their dreams" "You're really great at that" Walker is Percy.

they’re already so perfect as percabeth, i love them

The way Leah threw Walker under the bus so quickly on “who’s most likely to flub their lines” 😂😂😂 Especially after he said she’s most likely to make them laugh. They’re perfect for Percy and Annabeth

Shout out to Oliver, Walker and the whole world owes him one.

Leah’s hairstyle is🔥 🔥 🔥 !!! Btw I’m so excited it’s coming out in 5 days!!!😮😮😮😊

Leah is so funny and so Annabeth

Can we talk about how pretty Annabeths actor is?

Perfect casting

4:45 the amount of sarcasm going on in this trio lmao just like the trio in the books

Loved this interview! It felt so relaxed, and the interviewer was really lovely and present

I always see a bunch of people in the comments calling the kids miscast, but guys the show isn't even out yet, let's all just wait and see. Rick chose the actors and called them perfect. And especially if you look more into them, you can see how their personalities matches their characters perfectly ^^ I also get why people may be upset about the different looks, but it's not that hard to see that the actors still fit their role. What are looks if the personality and acting doesn't match at all? Those kids are the actors of our main cast for a reason. So let's support them and look what they have to offer instead of complaining about them. They're great.

I agree, it's much more important to cast actors who can fill the role properly over simply looks, how they look won't make or break the show, so excited to see the product!

@@stefangrigoras5208 This is especially true for an adaptation of a book series which main message was "you can accomplish great things regardless of your background". People who complain about the looks of the actors have clearly not picked up on that message despite claiming to be huge fans of the series.

Hope to see Walker as Kidpool in Deadpool 3, and I also think he would make a great role in a live action Zelda, with Hunter Schafer playing the title character

The best cast ever, can't wait to see the show❤ If you don't like them, you're not a true PJO fan. These actors are so talented, and that's what matters. Not skin color, hair, or height. They're dedicated, that's the important part.

Yeah, I agree with neverie. Uncle Rick CREATED Percy Jackson. He's HAD to have chosen these three for a reason.

they are so amazing and Leah was born to play Annabeth 💜💜

I hope this cast know how much I’m obsessed with Percy Jackson because of them

They all aged 5 years in like 6 months 💀

Они такие волшебные! Не могу дождать премьеры!

ikr. big yikes. I actually had a feeling it would end up like this since Rick Riordin and Disney teamed up. Disney is notorious recently for being woke, messing up adaptations, and pushing their own agendas. And in the past several years Rick has become just as woke and bad as Disney making like 80% of his characters LGBTQ+ and putting his own agendas into his writing. So, i figured we would get some woke pandering from them.

these books have always been about inclusivity. they literally made dyslexia and adhd superpowers. half the characters in the books are poc. why are you surprised they’ve CONTINUED being inclusive?

I dont mind them changing characters slightly (skin color, hair color, whatever) and i think Walker seems like a good kid...but he does not at all fit the Percy from the books. Percy is often compared to seeming more like a skater kid with strong mental and physical fortitude. Walker gives off a more "geeky" vibe, like a scrawny gamer kid. Percy in the books gave off an immediate "bad ass" kind of vibe. Leah isnt even the same skin color as Annabeth from the books but at least her mannerism seems like it fits book Annabeth quite well. But, i am hoping the this series is solid and that my mediocre expectations are surpassed .

You have to keep in mind, that the "badass" Percy is the one that develops throughout the series and is described in the final books. When the Lightning Theif takes place, Percy is twelve years old, in middle school. He's supposed to be young and awkward with no friends. I'm sure with time Walker will look more like the Percy we idolize and make fan art of, lmao.

It is Disgusting how people hated and hated the original PJ cast so much (the 2010 and 2014 one) This cast looks NOTHING like the books. Have you SEEN THEIR ANNABETH!?!? This is NOT a racial comment but if you want to go by the BOOKS and you are REMAKING this because the first series FAILED the BOOKS.

Bestie, I'd learn how to spell first before making such bold and incorrect claims. Rick, the author of the books, had a huge hand in the casting process. It's his vision, his world , he knows the world better then you could ever hope to. The reviews are mostly positive, and the trailers look great. If you can't handle Annabeth having a different skintone than the one she had in the books, don't watch the show, nobody want you here anyways.

OH whatever. You're probably fine with Emma Watson being conventionally attractive when Hermione was described in the books as NOT a stand-out beauty. Emma WAS and IS Hermione. It doesn't matter that she didn't have the most bushy, frizzy hair or bucked teeth. Ability to match the character's personality and mannerisms, and the casting director/author's own gut feeling, is what's most imperative.
