More casting news

Anthony Head, who you may know as Giles from Buffy the Vampire Slayer or more recently, as Uther Pendragon from Merlin, has been cast as Chiron, Camp Half-Blood’s fearless leader!

Percy Jackson News

Sprite — Sun, 18 Mar 2012 01:25:26 +0000

The amazing Nathan Fillion has been cast in the new Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monster, as Hermes. Who is none other than Luke Castellan’s father, played by our very own Jake Abel. Most people might know him from Castle or Desperate Housewives. Looking a little closer, I can actually almost see a resemblance between Fillion and Abel. Having him on to play a Greek God is definitely going to be a treat. I can’t wait to see how it comes out.

There are now actual filming dates being reported. They will be filming up in Vancouver, Canada from April 16 to July 12. So be on the look out for the cast up there! If there are any sighting or fan encounters, let us know! We’d love to hear about that stuff!
