Another trailer has landed online for Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters. This time it’s the international trailer, which shows quite a few new scenes.
The international trailer provides us with quite a lot to look at. Right off the bat we get a lot more Luke, who says, “I will resurrect Kronos, and the Olympians will know death.” Those that weren’t happy with the previous film, Lightning Thief, will be happy to see the Kronos plot taking front and center in the sequel.
In addition to more Luke, we get lots of action, including Percy surfing on a wave sans surfboard. The trailer also highlights a couple of new monsters, and once again puts the Colchis Bull at the forefront of the attack on Camp Half-Blood.
Grover, at least, understands the gravity of the situation, as he says, “Let me pack my bag and make sure my health insurance is paid up.” It’s nice that his humorous side has carried over from the Lightning Thief to the sequel, as we think that was definitely one of the highlights of the first film.
In one of the final shots of the trailer, we see what happens after Percy, Annabeth, and Tyson are swallowed by Charybdis. They end up inside the sea monster, and Annabeth voices what everyone else is thinking: “This has to be the worst way to die ever.”
You can check out the first official trailer and the second official trailer to see exactly which scenes are new.
Last week, we got both an international poster and a U.S. poster.
These posters follow several previous posters of the individual characters that were released over the last few weeks, including Percy, Annabeth, Grover, Tyson, and Clarisse.
Prior to this we’ve gotten a poster of Percy and Annabeth side by side, as well as one with Percy and his sword, Riptide.
Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters hits theaters on August 7 and is based on the book of the same name by Rick Riordan.
