Alexandra Daddario will always be for many Annabeth Chase, daughter of the goddess Athena. It’s been nine years since he first played the role in ‘Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief’ and with the upcoming premiere of ‘Percy Jackson & the Olympians’, it has been allowed to look back to support the reboot of the saga in the form of a series for Disney+, where another generation of actors embody the core trio . In an interview for ComicBook, the actress said: “I’m very excited about the series and I hope people love it”.

Daddario has supported the new adaptation from the start, even owing it come out in defense of Leah Jeffries, the new Annabeth Chasewhen some of the fans were outraged that she was a black actress. “[Ser Annabeth] It was a wonderful role and I’m very happy for her.”, he declares. At the time, she didn’t hesitate to be totally supportive, posting on Twitter: “Leah Jeffries is going to be amazing as Annabeth!!!”.

The actress was thrilled not only with the actors who will succeed the originals, but also with the series as a whole. “The Percy Jackson books are much loved. I was just a small part of them”he claims. “I have stepchildren now, and you realize that [sagas como Percy Jackson] They get children to start reading. It makes them think.

It will always be Annabeth

Alexandra Daddario is now 36 years old. We recently saw her as Rachel in “The White Lotus” and we will soon see her as Rowan Mayfair in “The Mayfair Witches, by Anne Rice”. With all, the fans who recognize her the most are those of Percy Jackson, who approach her on the street and call her by her character’s name. “That was a long time ago, and they still credit it to me!”, He says. She too has not forgotten and is grateful to be a part of it “It’s been great for my career, it’s been great for my life.”.
