It’s only just over a month until Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief arrives in cinemas on February 12th, and so to help with the marketing hype, a series of character art images have popped up online (via Filmofilia). Most of them are pretty cool, and certainly make the Chris Columbus directed movie about a teen who discovers he’s the son of Poseidon and becomes the target of the Greek Gods because they think he’s stolen Zeus’ lightning rod, look like it could be pretty cool.
However I’d like to draw you attention to the pic of Uma Thurman as Medusa. Is it just me, or is that the worst Photoshop job you’ve ever seen? Few pictures can have ever been produced where someone looked less like really they have snakes instead of hair. I’d suggest sending whoever did the blending job on that image back to school as it’s truly awful (thankfully the trailer suggests Thurman’s snakes on her head will look much better in the finished movie). Take a look below for the character art.
