Percy Jackson and the Olympians

Watch the video

Keeping track of your greek gods is like following one big incestious family tree. We all had to do it in junior high and the cast of "percy jackson and the olympians" had to put the knowledge to good use.

So we decided to give them a pop quiz on "their" knowledge of zeus and company can you say cheat sheet?

Alexandra Daddario: "There are 12 olympian gods. think three are brothers zeus posidon and hades. the children of these gods were half human, half gods."

In greek mythology there is so much to know... Even if you *are* smarter than a fifth grader.

LOGAN LERMAN: "My knowledge of greek mythology before working on the film was that of any other elemantary school student."
 
The easiest way? Cliff's notes the second easiest way: Watch deco.

ALEXANDRIA DADDARIO: "Poseidon is the sea, zeus is the god of the weather and you know the hedge god. athena is the goddess of wisdom and battle strategy. Apollo is the god of the arts and aphrodite is the goddess of love"

LOGAN LERHMAN: "Poseidon controls the water right, zeus controls the lightening and the clouds and the weather, and hades is the controller of the underworld."

Now, those are your "a-list" gods here's where the cliff notes might help.

"demi-gods" are the half-human descendants of gods.. like percy jackson and his posse.

LOGAN LERHMAN: "You have an inherited bad ass in you"

And last but not least, there are "half bloods".. who protect and serve the demi-god's from any evil doing.

BRANDON T JACKSON: "A saytr. half goat, half man. he's the protector of percy jackson and he will stop at nothing to make sure percy jackson is safe and."
