Pierce Brosnan, Uma Thurman, Kevin McKidd, Sean Bean and Melina Kanakaredes have signed on to play classical Greek gods in the fantasy-adventure “Percy Jackson.”
The Fox 2000 flick is being directed by Chris Columbus (”Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone”), who also co-adapted the screenplay from the best-selling children’s novel “The Lightning Thief” by Rick Riordan.
The book, which draws from Greek mythology, follows Poseidon’s half-human son Percy on his “quest across modern America to prevent a war among the gods,” according to The Hollywood Reporter.
