Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief (2009) Original Advance Movie Poster Rolled DS– 27x40 Lightning Teaser
PERCY JACKSON & THE OLYMPIANS: THE LIGHTNING THIEF
Original U.S. Theatrical Advance Movie Poster – Percy / Lightning Bolt / Ocean Design
A dramatic original theatrical advance poster created for 20th Century Fox’s fantasy adventure Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief, directed by Chris Columbus and based on the bestselling novel by Rick Riordan.
This striking campaign design depicts Percy emerging from the ocean while raising Zeus’ electrified lightning bolt overhead, with a storm-filled sky and illuminated city skyline behind him. It is one of the film’s strongest early promotional images, immediately tying together Percy’s connection to Poseidon, the stolen master bolt, and the modern mythology at the center of the story.
Rather than using the complete theatrical billing block and February 2010 release date, this version carries the simple advance-release copy:
“PRESIDENTS DAY”
That makes it an advance / teaser theatrical issue promoting the movie ahead of its February 2010 release.
The artwork was part of the official theatrical campaign, and documented poster material for the film began appearing in 2009, before the movie’s 2010 theatrical release. IMP Awards records official Lightning Thief poster artwork added as early as October and November 2009.
The movie was directed by Chris Columbus and stars Logan Lerman, Brandon T. Jackson, Alexandra Daddario, Jake Abel, Pierce Brosnan, Uma Thurman, Sean Bean, Rosario Dawson and Kevin McKidd.
A particularly attractive piece for collectors of Percy Jackson, Rick Riordan, Greek mythology, fantasy films, young-adult franchises, 20th Century Fox memorabilia, or original theatrical posters.
