Percy Jackson & The Lightning Thief DVD
Epic, fantasy-adventure Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief will bring Greek mythology to life this summer when it’s released on DVD and Blu-ray on the 5th July.
The film follows teenager Percy Jackson, as an ordinary 21st century school day turns into a race against time, filled with warring Greek gods and creatures straight from the pages of his mythology textbooks.
Released by Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment and directed by legendary fantasy director Chris Columbus (Harry Potter, The Goonies) Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief stars teen heartthrob Logan Lehrman (3:10 to Yuma) as Percy, a high school student whose life is turned upside-down when he discovers he’s the son of the Greek god Poseidon (Kevin McKidd; Trainspotting, Grays Anatomy).
With his mother missing and facing accusations of stealing Zeus’ (Sean Bean: Sharpe, Lord of the Rings) lightning bolt, Percy must embark on a cross-country quest to find the real lightning thief and avert a mythological war.
Joined on his adventure by fellow demi-god and daughter of Athena, Annabeth (Alexandra Daddario; Law and Order, All my Children) and a satyr named Grover (Brandon T. Jackson; Fast and Furious, The Day the Earth Stood Still), Percy’s journey brings him face-to-face with furys, centaurs, minotaurs and all-manner of other mythical creatures.
Tasked with finding the bolt before the summer solstice, Percy must first battle with Medusa (Uma Thurman: My Super Ex-girlfriend, Batman and Robin), outsmart the seductive Lotus Eaters and escape Hades (Steve Coogan: Night at the Museum 2, Tropic Thunder).
But will Percy be able find Zeus’s bolt, return it to Olympus in time and avert a godly war?
