Who would you have cast for different parts?? You can keep the same actors if you liked them, but if you didn't like the actor or their looks weren't right to you, who would you have cast?
I like Logan as Percy. I imagine him while I am reading.
Annabeth, I don't think she looks right. Maybe that same girl but with blonde hair? Or Anna Sophia Robb just curled her hair.
Any other re-casts you would like?

Yes, Annasophia for Annabeth. And I probably would've kept Logan as Percy, but if I hadn't, Graham Phillips would've been my pick.

I wouldn't go with AnnaSophia for Annabeth, but that's just me... I don't know who I WOULD pick, but not her....
Even though Grover is supposed to be a white nerdy guy with a Jewfro, I wouldn't change the guy who plays him the movie. Cuz he was hilarious!

Just making Hades badass is fine with me. His portrayal really turned me off. And Persephone's attitude. (why was she in the movie in the first place)

Cuz she's Rosario Dawson and Rosario Dawson is awesome!
But yeah, Hades wasn't that great.... Neither was Poseidon for that matter....

The problem with Persephone being in the movie was that it is set around the summer solstice (right?) and if anyone knows their mythology, they know that the only reason the Greeks believed that there was summer was because Persephone was not in the underworld and her mother was celebrating her return

^^too true.
But I really liked the actor who portrayed Luke, Jake Abel. Although they messed up his story line, I thought he was really great and understood Luke.

Luke was awesome in the movie. I definitely think they got him, Percy, and Grover the closest to the books.... not look-wise necessarily, but story-wise, definitely.

I think the only thing almost everyone agrees on for the casting is Logan for Percy.

Even though they changed Grover, I loved him so much in the movie. Now, *spoiler* it'll be interesting to see him in a wedding dress, lol

I wouldn't have kept Logan. Sorry. He seems too strongwilled and, if they made movies for The Heroes of Olympus, I think he wouldn't be scared and careful of others feeling like in the books.
Annabeth is meant to be blonde. ARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!! first world problems. I don't really like her for the part either. Grover was perfect though. good spunk.
for The Heroes of Olympus movies if they made them, If we had Hazel, the girl who played Rue in the Hungers Games could be casted, when she's older.
