PERCY JACKSON: my dream cast

Hi guys! First of all sorry this is so late, like a whole week. I have been having troubles with my laptop. I know this already my second Percy Jackson post, but... Oh well I don't even have a relevant excuse. Percy Jackson is just awesome!!! I was planning on doing this post earlier, but it took a LOT of research for this one...But here it is! My dream PJO and HOO cast... At first I was just going to do the main characters... But honestly I got a little carried away.... Let me know in the comments of what you think! Do you agree? Or do you like other actors for other roles? Now let's start with original trio and go on from there!


Gabriel Suttle as Percy Jackson

Honestly, this kid is exactly how I imagined 12 year old Percy...

The art is Percy when he is older in the HOO books, I think this guy will work though.

Anna Sophie Ross as Annabeth Chase

To me, everything about her looks like Annabeth. The face, eyes, hair.

Stefano Masciolini as Graver Underwood

As you can already tell, the main cast in the movie would not be the same, if I chose that is. I didn't feel that they matched the book descriptions. This is how I imagined Grover!

Alexander Ludwig as Jason Grace

This is a perfect actor for Jason, well that's what I think, add a scar by his lip and where perfect!

Victoria Justice as Piper McLean

I think this girl would make a good Piper, I don't have much else to say, pretty simple.

Ki Hong Lee as Frank Zhang

This guy could easily pull off Frank, he is almost exactly how I pictured him!

I don't have much else to say, this actor totally looks like Frank. That's about it.

Amandla Stenberg as Hazel Levesque

Okay, I know Hazel has different hair then Amandla but I think it would work out. I mean actors and actresses change their appearances a lot for different shows/movies.

Joaquin Ochoa as Leo Valdez

Leo took me the longest to find the perfect actor, but finally... I found hi. this Leo pretty much looks exactly how I imagined him, he just needs some overalls!

Shailene Woodly as Calypso

As soon as I saw her, I knew it was Calypso. She even has the braid in this picture! I can totally imagine her in a white dress, hair flowing in the wind...

Lucy Hale as Reyna Avila Ramírez-Arellano

Now in the picture of Lucy Hale, she is smiling, and Reyna hardly ever smiles, but obviously the actors and the characters are different. Just look at the Winter Soldier and Sebastian Stan!

Dylan Schmid as Nico De Angelo

Nico! He is probably one of my favorites! This one also took a long time to find the perfect actor, but I believe I found him. At least for me. Now Dylan Schmid would probably have to straighten his hair, then I think were all set!

Stephen Graham as Coach Hedge

Okay, one look at this guy and I knew he was a perfect Coach Hedge, all he needs is a bat and a goatee!

Burkely Duffield as Will Solace

This is definitely a son of Apollo, this guy needs to grow out his hair a bit then he is a perfect Will!

Chris Evens as Zeus

I am alone on this? Honestly I think Cris Evens would make a good Zeus. I found a picture on the right that I think would work... There we can kind of see what he would look like. You guys might think I am insane for "casting" Captain America as Zeus, but I think he could pull it off.

Liam Hemsworth as Poseiden

Give this guy a Hawaiian shirt and some shades and bam! Poseiden.

I don't think much would need to change otherwise.

Ashley Judd as Sally Jackson

This was probably the easiest one to match, Ashley Judd just screams Sally Jackson to me.

Sara Hyland as Juniper

Obviously this girl needs some green skin and curly hair, but otherwise, I think it matches great.

Gerard Butler as Ares

I imagined Ares with darker hair then Gerard Butler, but this actor could totally pull of Ares.

Johnny Depp as Hades

It took me a while to figure out who would be a good Hades, but then Johnny Depp came to mind! I think he would be perfect for the roole. What do you guys think?

Stanly Tuci as Dionas

Just look at his face, it just screams Dionas! Mess up his hair a bit and he is perfect!

Demi Moore as Hera

Hera . That is it. This woman looks like exactly what I thought she would look like,

This actress was born to be Hear. No questions!

Leven Rambin as Clarisse La Rue

Some people might disagree with me on this, but I think the Clarisse from the movies was perfect.

Joe Pamtoliano as Smelly Gabe

Now this is also the same actor from the movies, the only thing I would change about him is, I pictured him much bigger then the actor. But actor gain and loose weight all the time.

Different actresses as Aphrodite

Now for Aphrodite, I think it should change actresses all the time, because all races are beautiful, all hair and eye color is beautiful. I think it would be cool if it was different if it was every time.

Janet Devlin as Rachel Elizabeth Dare

Sorry for the blurry photo, but this girl looks like a perfect Rachel. Her face, and hair just screams Rachel.

Sam Clatin as Apollo

Okay, I don't know why it is so blurry! But this guy looks like Apollo, but then again he can change appearance to whatever, but I feel like this is what he would look like most the time. Well, all them could change to look whatever, where was I going with this? I don't know. Apollo! Okay I'm done.

Tom Hiddleston as Hermes

Honestly, I didn't picture Hermes as Tom Hiddleston, but as son as I thought of him in that way, it just felt normal. Well, the only reason I thought of him is because I love Tom Hiddleston, but yes I want him to play Hermes. It just feels right.

Crystal Reed as Artemis

It took me a long time to find a fan-art of Artemis that looked like how i imagined her, I might have pictured her differently than others. But I think this actress looks like she would be great.

Viggo Mortenson as Hephaestus

Now I think that he doesn't even need a beard to look Hephaestus. He just gives off such a "Hephaestus' feel. Am I alone here? Maybe. But I mean, he doesn't have to look exactly like the book version.

Douglas Smith as Tyson

So this actor played Tyson in the movie, but I think he would make a better Tyson without dreadlocks. In the movie he has dreads, I never pictured him like that, but that's it such a small detail that I don't think it is a huge deal.

Paloma Kwiatkowsk as Thalia Grace

The only thing I would change about this actresses appearance for the part of Thalia, is just messing up her hair, even in the fan-art we can tell its not perfect, and its not meant to be! Otherwise, the eyes are the perfect color, and the age seems to fit.

Jake Abel as Luke Castilian

Again, this is the same actor as in the movies. I think he fits the books description in the books. I can't tell if he has the scar or not, but that would be a good thing to add.

Jodelle Ferland as Bianca de Angelo

Now I have always looked up to Bianca, I put a lot of thought into who would play her, I think I found a good one! Jodelle Ferland i think would make a perfect Bianca.

Jack and Finn Harries as Connor and Travis Stoll

Look at these two goofballs! Of coarse they have to play the one and only Connor and Travis!

Dayo Okerlyi as Charles Beckendorf

Oh I love Charles, he is such a good character. I think this actor would be great for the roe, he looks like a son of a Hephestus.

Zoe Aggenliki as Selina Beareguard

I have always imagined Selina as a lovely girl, and I think that this actress would do her justice.

Eloise Mumford as Iris

I have always pictured Iris as a blonde, but I mean whatever works for you. She could change it at just a thought. But anyway, I like this actress as Iris.

Paul McGann as Chiron

This actor would be the best Chiron I could ever think of. After some deep thought he came to mind, and I knew he was the perfect choice. What do you al think?

Zoey Deutch as Zoë Nightshade

Oh man Zoe. Wonderful girl, and I think that this actress portrays her very well. Just in looks I can see Zoe, and its funny her name is Zoey too! Okay, maybe not that funny, but a coincidence at the least. Do you guys think she looks like a hunter?

Skander Keynes as Ethan Nakamura

Now Ethan took a while to find the perfect actor. But then 'Prince Edmund' came to mind and I knew that Shander Keynes was the perfect choice. Give him an eye patch and were ready!

Karen Gillan as Ell?

Seriously look at the fan-art, does that not look like Karen Gillan. Like it totally looks like a cartoon version of her. Or maybe I am just saying that because I like Karen Gillan as a awesome actress. Either way, she should totally be Ella.

Tom Felton as Octavian

Okay, Tom Felton was born for this role. Now obviously I am aware he is older now. But man do they look alike, as much as I hate Octavian, I really like Tom Felton as an actor, and I think he would do good in this role.

Max Irons as Hercules

Now this is a character that I am not to passionate about who plays him. Honestly I would be fine with anyone, as long as they get his personality right, I don't care for looks as much for him.

Kurt Cobain as Magnus Chase

Now what would a Percy Jackson/Hero's of Olympus TV show be without a crossover from our very own Magnus Chase? Okay, Kurt Cobain looks exactly like him. Not kidding, the art on the right is from the cover, and everything matches, the hair, even the expression! He's even wearing the same style coat, just a different color. This just is insane.

Sorry for the long post, I hope you all enjoyed! Also, obviously this is a dream cast, because most of these people don't look the same as in this pictures, some are dead, or don't even act. I just was looking for looks that matched the books descriptions. Sorry again that this is so late. Have a wonderful rest of the day! Let me know in the comments who is your favorite character, also what are your thoughts on the cast? Thanks!
