Today, February 4th, Pierce Brosnan talked to Matt Lauer on the Today Show about his role in Percy Jackson as Professor Brunner/Chiron.

Highlights from the interview

Brosnan talked about how he feels that he can play any role anywhere. That is how he was trained as an actor.

Brosnan said how he signed up for 3 Percy Jackson Movies!

Dylan, his 13 year old son, is a huge fan of the books and the driving force for Brosnan to take the role.

Brosnan said that he is playing the role for both of his boys, Dylan (13) and Paris (8).

Worked with Chris Columbus, the director, in Mrs. Doubtfire and loved the script when he read it.

One thing that he hopes never gets seen is the blue spandex pants that he had to wear while filming as Chiron.

My take

I enjoyed watching Brosnan on the Today Show and I always love it when an actor or actress says that they are doing a movie for their kids. I am so excited that Brosnan is signed up for 3 Percy Jackson movies! That would be awesome if there was even that many! I am hoping for all 5 books made into movies! Great interview Pierce Brosnan, can’t wait to see you on the big screen!
