I love how they’re all a little nervous cause they’re still new to Hollywood, it’s so refreshing. They’re adorable. and I love that all the Demigod kids have curly or wavy hair.
"Who's most likely to secretly be a god in real life ?" Leah : *shows Walker* Walker : "Why did you pick me ?? I mean I do have greek god features yeah, but other than that..." GUYS, HE'S REAL-LIFE PERCY JACKSON 😭😭😭💙😂
yeah usually people prefer someone that emobides the character who can act, not just looks. a little too artificial if your main concern is looks over personality. @@jimmyfaltu8155
They are all so well spoken and have such respect for each other and the rest of the cast and crew from what I have seen so far they have done the books justice and I can’t wait to see them grow and change with the characters! 🙏🏽
my favorite moments: “wHeRe dO wE LiVe” 0:58 aryan knowing all about heroes of olympus and walker reading percy jackson and the olympians six times 1:58 “i mean i do have god like features, yeah” 2:51 leah’s “well-“ 3:00 LIKE CATS 3:31 “i would be a cat??” 3:35 all of them putting all the signs up for pulling pranks on set 3:39 leah’s failed prank on aryan 3:46 YOUNG ARYAN SINGING 5:08 THE FACT THAT THEY ARE TRULY KIDS MY PERCY, ANNABETH, AND GROVER!! 💙⚡️🔱
So I was in attendance for the NYCC Percy Jackson panel. Based on the clips we saw - especially the Capture the Flag sequence - I can safely say predict this show will be a VERY faithful adaptation. December can't get here soon enough!
// show spoilers Dude I saw the clips too before Disney took them down. The show is so accurate!! Like they really made sure all the important scenes are there and the trio’s personalities stayed true. I love how Percy is still eager to learn and trying to do his schoolwork despite his ADHD and dyslexia. The Peter Johnson movie didn’t understand that and just gave movie Percy an edgy, I don’t care attitude. I love how Annabeth makes questionable actions at first but turns out she had a plan. She was like that in the books (most recent scene is when Annabeth pushed Percy off a cliff so he can get into the river/water in The Chalice of The Gods. Here in the show, she pushes Percy into the water to see if he would heal 😂 Classic Annabeth). And I like how she has a deep voice and she sounds blunt but that’s just how she is. No nonsense attitude. They also made sure to include her NY Yankees baseball cap that makes her invisible which is AWESOME. And Grover did so well too! He has the same voice as I imagined book Grover to be. Him and Percy look like they really are friends and have a genuine connection. And he really looks like he’s doing his best as a satyr protector like in the books. I was so happy they had the two playing MYTHOMAGIC CARDS! Nico Di Angelo foreshadowing!!
Can’t be that faithful and Percy himself doesn’t have black hair and green eyes , as well as annabeth . And before y’all try to say it’s racist you’re mad nah . I’m mad at the fact Hollywood is race washing characters just because it’ll bring more views . Annabeth had a struggle being a stereotype blonde white girl who people thought she was stupid because of her blonde hair , which might not seem like a struggle but it is . She didn’t need to be black at all
@@thdarkonex3 There's something deeply funny about a person who thinks that the dumb blonde stereotype holds any relevance in the year 2023. Go outside, man.
@@thdarkonex3 she didn't need to be black at all, but they liked leah the most out of all the girls who auditioned and chose to cast her :) Annabeth's struggle being a stereotype blonde white girl is mentioned ONCE - and do you really think black women aren't underestimated? even the complaints about leah's casting is a bunch of people assuming she only got the job because they're "race washing" and not because she actually deserved it and can do it. do you really think this (minor - mind you!, as it was never a big plot point in the main series) struggle can't be adapted?
God they are all so perfect for their roles. Walker is such a Percy already, Aryan is a perfect Grover, and Leah is for SURE gonna be a perfect Annabeth. This show is the only thing keeping me going anymore 😭
Walker: "Oh look up his TH-cam channel" Aryan: "Oh that doesn't exist" Variety: *posted a clip from said youtube channel* Lmaooo the way I cackled at that cut 🤣 Whoever put it there, thank you!
This interview was waaaay too short 😭 I need more content of these guys. They truly make me enjoy myself a lot. So funny and natural. I love them. Please give us more❤
With the new cast, Riordan feels that everyone involved is "perfect," even if they don't look exactly like how they might have been written in the original books. With Scobell, Riordan noted, "Did I care that his hair is a different color than what is described in the book? Not at all. He just felt like Percy.” With Simhadri's Grover, Riordan similarly added, "Does he look exactly like I describe him in the book? No. That doesn’t matter." "Leah impressed me from the moment I met her. She has that sort of steel that makes her a leader, but there’s a bit of vulnerability to her," the author went on to say about Jeffries. “Now, again, does she look like Annabeth looks in the books? No. Was that important to me? No. If anything, it was a massive benefit to broaden the cast in terms of representation.”
Everyone talking about Walker being the perfect Percy (he is) BUT CAN WE TALK ABOUT LEAH IN THAT OPENING SCENE??!?! Walker and Aryan excitedly saying she'd be a Disney villain and then she's like "...I would be cat???" SHE IS ANNABETH
Ever since the show’s been announced I‘ve been so excited about the fact that we were gonna get all those cast interviews and cast games, conventions, etc and now that the release is so close and all of those interviews are coming out I am actually feeling a bit nostalgic! So excited to see everyone playing their characters in the show and I bet it will be amazing!
Percy Jackson has been one of my biggest interests ever, I'm so glad we have such a perfect cast :) and Aryan is such a perfect Grover omg he's so adorable
I really missed these games with the cast of WoT because of the strikes, and also I don't know how many amazon shows have them, so I'm soooo glad to have these for PJO
They are so cute I was at first sad that they were not gonna follow the books on how they would look but their personalities fit their characters so well. Especially walker’s 💀he’s so awkward (in a good way) and goofy like Percy
I really do love that they're all fans of the books 😭😭❤️ it brings me so much joy to know that that means they'll put in even more love and work into making sure it's as book-PjO as possible and that makes me happy. Especially after the interviews with Logan Lerman (no shade to him though) where he didn't get the blue food references
Imagine coming back to this in 5 years when annabeth and Percy fell into the Tatarus, and we will see them all grown up all of the sudden and this will be so nostalgic 🥹
they're too amazing, they reflect the characters so well. I do still wish they had the proper appearance, but I mean, anything's better than the movies
“I mean I *do* have god like features, but-“
Such a casual Percy thing to say hands down
Lol yup, he’d say that in the book
he's so insecure and shy though, he might think it but he barely even talks if you realize in the books.
He so would, this casting seems so perfect! I can't wait to watch this!!
@@ttacosim assuming youve only read the first books then
@@ttacos oh no lol, percy is definitely not shy,atleast not as much as you claim
Walker saying that he would be a demigod but then saying that Leah is for sure a goddess is so Percy coded
Percy 99% of the time: sure, I'm THE shit, but HAVE YOU SEEN ANNABETH?????
Facts dude he appreciates her so much😭💍
Frr
Percabeth >>
@@deancontiwriter13That’s adorable
I love how they’re all a little nervous cause they’re still new to Hollywood, it’s so refreshing. They’re adorable. and I love that all the Demigod kids have curly or wavy hair.
I mean, if I entered Hollywood as new, of course I would be nervous and shy 🙂
Yea I really hope they don’t get ruined… they’re so precious
Same ❤😊
Agreed ♡
how did i only just now notice the trio all has curls lmao
Aryan’s random singing is exactly what I needed today
It's so Grover
@@jonathanmong4927so true
I know that made my day soo much better lol
💙💙
leah's eye makeup and just her entire fit in this is so cute
She is so glammed up in every interview and photo shoot, her stylists really know what they're doing!!!
She has the style of a goddess. Probably Aphrodite's work
Ikr I want to watch her grow and become the IT girl. Basically become a fashion icon like Zendaya when she gets older
Her hair is so pretty 🤩
🦉💙
i hope we're all going to look back at this interview in years and feel so nostalgic about how they grew up and the work they've done
Exactly 🥹💙
They already have! I mean walkers first project was with RYAN REYNOLDS!
thats so cutee🥺
Yep💙
I'm honestly so excited to see where they'll go!! They already have steller chemistry and are very charming
"Who's most likely to secretly be a god in real life ?"
Leah : *shows Walker*
Walker : "Why did you pick me ?? I mean I do have greek god features yeah, but other than that..."
GUYS, HE'S REAL-LIFE PERCY JACKSON 😭😭😭💙😂
I love how they all have curly hair
@suezcontours6653 omg i didn't even notice that lol
Yeah
😂😂
💙
Somebody said they didn’t cast Annabeth, they just shook the books real hard till Leah fell out, and I agree 😂
They did that with the three tbh.
Really? Doesn’t look like the description of Annabeth to me
@@jimmyfaltu8155loser
yeah usually people prefer someone that emobides the character who can act, not just looks. a little too artificial if your main concern is looks over personality. @@jimmyfaltu8155
@jimmyfaltu8155 Come on now, we all know what they mean
I don't care what anyone says, these kids are PERFECT! Rick was right, especially about Leah- she gives off such Annabeth vibes! I cant wait!!
Yeah 💙🦉
💙🩵💙
I don't see her fawning over Luke🧐
They are all so well spoken and have such respect for each other and the rest of the cast and crew from what I have seen so far they have done the books justice and I can’t wait to see them grow and change with the characters! 🙏🏽
The fact that Walker didn't swear once is a testament to his well-spoken self-control (he's hilarious)
💙
💙
I'm 25 and literally DYING to see this show😂We grew up on the books and were let down by the movies. This is our second chance.
LMAO SAMEEEE
💙
Very glad to see these 3 kids having a blast filming

They seem nervous, but comfortable with each other. It’s nice. They have this warm, down to earth energy with each other.
💙
💙💙💙
Oh my gods they are so adorable. I cant believe after more than a decade wanting a faithful adaptation i finally have one with a perfect cast

Massive respect for the profile pic.

"I mean I do have godlike features but other than that---"
anyone who ever doubted Walker Scobell as Percy Jackson needs to sit down right now
the only thing that wrong in this video is that it's so short!! you guys need to make a 10 minute version of this 😔
walker's voice has changed so much 😭
This interview was waaaay too short 😭 I need more content of these guys. They truly make me enjoy myself a lot. So funny and natural. I love them. Please give us more❤
💙
The whole "prank" explanation had me rolling😂💀😭
they all act exactly like their characters in real life i love it😭

Oh I'm so excited for more interviews of the Percy Jackson cast! I look forward to seeing them more later once the series fully drops.
They all have such amazing hair. Love seeing ppl embracing their curls.🧡

First i was kind of upset that they werent looking book accurate but now im conviced that these kids are the trio.
the show premieres December 20, I can't wait!!
Seeing walker and Aryan interact I definitely am feeling pretty confident that they will pull off the best buds role well.
Percy Jackson has been one of my biggest interests ever, I'm so glad we have such a perfect cast :) and Aryan is such a perfect Grover omg he's so adorable

I LOVE ARYAN SO MUCH HE'S SO ADORABLE AND PERFECT FOR GROVER 😭
The fact that this is just gonna be memories in a couple of years
Aryan watching Leah run from his door, trip over the trashcan, slam into the mini fridge, and hit the ground is hilarious lol 😂
I'm gonna come back here in a few years and be so nostalgic. I can't wait!
i was worried abt the blonde curls but damn the sec i hear him speak i forget hes an actor. hes soo percy.
They are so cute I was at first sad that they were not gonna follow the books on how they would look but their personalities fit their characters so well. Especially walker’s 💀he’s so awkward (in a good way) and goofy like Percy
percy isnt goofy,grover is percy is sarcastic
I really do love that they're all fans of the books 😭😭❤️ it brings me so much joy to know that that means they'll put in even more love and work into making sure it's as book-PjO as possible and that makes me happy. Especially after the interviews with Logan Lerman (no shade to him though) where he didn't get the blue food references
i already love this cast so much 🥹 such talented and charismatic kids!
Imagine coming back to this in 5 years when annabeth and Percy fell into the Tatarus, and we will see them all grown up all of the sudden and this will be so nostalgic 🥹
i LOVE how the comments have nothing but good things to say it really shows how much we care about these three
I was so happy but now the newest comments are bad 😭
Perfectly casted actors!
Y’all did my babies dirty with the thumb nail 😭
they're too amazing, they reflect the characters so well. I do still wish they had the proper appearance, but I mean, anything's better than the movies
This will be just like Harry Potter Nostalgia all over again. Glad I will be able to say I started watching on season 1
The promo interviews are starting... wow, this new era is really beginning 🥺
I can’t wait for this show will start
they're so perfect for these roles!
not walker forgetting his lines 😭 that’s so percy jackson code of him tho
This is so OG Trio energy and I love it! 💙
So excited for them!!! They're going to be amazing
The series is in good hands 🙌🏾
They’re so cute, can’t wait for the series to drop
I can't wait to see them in their roles. They're going to be amazing.
THANK UUUU VARIETY FOR THIS PERFECT INTERVIEW
I love Percy Jackson and I think these three are going to do the characters justice! They all acted so similar to the books!
this is actually perfect casting
I’m so thankful that this comment section is pretty wholesome ❤

they're so much like their characters like i cant😭😭
leah is so annabeth i love her
