Percy Jackson and the Olympians continues its mythical momentum. The series is already deep into production, as it is currently in its third month of production in Vancouver, but took the time last week to celebrate the titular character’s canonical birthday. Author Rick Riordan, star Walker Scobell, and even the Empire State Building itself celebrated August 18th with official images, appropriately blue cupcakes, and an Olympus-style light show. Even with all those gifts, one present was notably absent: a first look teaser trailer. That’s because despite having “through chapter nine” of The Lightning Thief shot, it’s still “way, way, way too early” for footage to be revealed to the public. With birthday celebrations in the rear view, the Percy Jackson cast and crew are back in the production driver’s seat.
