I believe Percy Jackson and the Olympians' New York premiere was the first time you and Adam Copeland met each other. But that's for the Hephaestus kids.įair enough. But me, personally? I wanted torn-off sleeves just for my main costume so badly. I know that it was intentional for some of the Ares kids to have torn-off sleeves because we're just rowdy. Goodjohn: (Laughs) No I don't think they did. So that's kind of what went into it, and it was my most favorite scene to film, hands down.ĭid they have to change the orange shirts in case anyone tore off a sleeve during one of the fights? And then performing the scene, I would say it took two days. I could be totally off, but I think if I wanted to put the days choreographing the Capture the Flag scene for me back to back - at least me learning the choreography - it took about. Goodjohn: So we had stunt coordinators and an entire stunt team and. Tell me a bit about the training and stuntwork that went into that fight scene and how long it took to bring the entire Capture the Flag scene to life. just a lot during the scene where Percy broke Clarisse's staff. I remember Walker Scobell saying during the Happy Sad Confused podcast that you scared him. Behind, like, her hard exterior, there's just this little girl who just wants her dad to tell her that he loves her. Like, why can't he just see that I am so good? Like I'm the best daughter." And so I think that's her driving force and her reasoning behind everything.
But it's some kind of sick, twisted thing in my head that I need to do good for him. You might get a little bit of acknowledgment from him, like "Hey, okay you didn't do so bad." But that's it and with Clarisse, the thing is, "I seek and need that validation from him so bad. For me." And that's the end of the story. He is the type of person that can and will tell you, "You get the glory, and you get it for me and for your cabin.
Her entire identity is being a demigod and all of it is about glory, and especially with my father. So that kind of tells you all you need to know about her. Goodjohn: I think Clarisse's biggest driving force is the desperate need for approval from her dad.
