His hair does not need to be black for him to embody Percy. When Fox first optioned Percy before the movie cast Logan, Rick’s readers knowing our son was the inspiration for Percy imagined we would cast Percy with light brown hair like our son has.''

!!Tropes:
* AdaptationDyeJob: In the books, Percy is repeatedly described with black hair and sea-green eyes. The teaser and "We've Been Expecting You" first look show that the television version has kept his actor's natural blond hair and blue eyes.
* FaunsAndSatyrs: In the "We've Been Expecting You" the satyr Grover is shown to be human from the waist up, but bears goat legs.
* OrangeBlueContrast: The teaser poster cuts a striking image by contrasting the bright orange of a Camp Half-Blood T-shirt with the blue plume of a Greek warrior helmet.
* RaceLift: Annabeth is described as a tanned blonde in the book and portrayed as white in official art. She is played by the African-American Leah Savah Jeffries in the show, and is first seen in the "We've Been Expecting You" teaser.
