CSI Files previously reported that Melina Kanakaredes (CSI: New York’s Stella Bonasera) would play the Greek goddess Athena in the upcoming film Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief. You can find a movie poster featuring Kanakaredes in costume here. More...
"Wow" is honestly all I can say, along with :luvlove: and :drool::drool::drool: Honest to God, they did a fabulous job with everything, even down to her make-up! I love that shade of lipstick they used.:adore: And I'm, not even into make-up all that much (or at all).:lol: Her ringlets, as usual, look fantastic. The armor is just cool...and hot. But, Melina's eyes should be more of a stormy gray, according to Athena's description in the books. I gotta admit, though, that her eyes look really pretty in the poster. All that Athena needs is her spear and Aegis!
Oh wow...She looks amazing in that poster! Seriously, I can't wait to see the movie. A. Because it's Melina and she's an amazing actress and B. I love the book.
I really want to see the movie - and Melina as a goddess is an awesome bonus. I've had the book for a while now. I really need to read it before the movie comes out - I keep saying that I need to do it, but hopefully I'll get around to it before the movie is actually in theaters. :lol:
