...Yeah, makes sense to me. Look at Pretty Little Liars, or The Lying Game. The actors that play high school girls are like 23-26 years old. And Alexandra Chando from The Lying Game is 26. If the actors look young then that's all that really matters. I also kind of expected for them to make Percy older in the movie, I don't know why...And Dark is right, people have been playing younger roles in movies for awhile...
