Just one more reason to watch Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief… the star – Logan Lerman – might just be our next Peter Parker!
Seems that Access Hollywood has shared an interview with Lerman where he talks about how both the studio and Lerman’s representation have both sent feelers out to each other about him taking on the role of a high school aged Peter Parker in the upcoming Spider-Man reboot.
Now granted this is just talk. They have considered it. There is no saying that he is going to get this role and he may just be the first to TALK about being talked to. I imagine they have considered a good number of young actors for the role. So lets get that clear. No one is saying that this is happening, just that conversations have begun in considering him and it COULD go that way if everything falls into place.
Kay? Exhale.
Now, all that being said… I love it. I think this kid has a ton of potential, and his brief presence in the Percy Jackson trailers convinced me that the film would be worth the shot. I do know that when I go see Percy Jackson and the Olympians, I will be trying to picture him as the nerdy webhead as well now.
