Following the modest success of the first movie, Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightening Thief, the sequel is finally moving forward with Logan Lerman set to reprise his role as the title hero.

The 19 year-old actor has had his option picked up by the studio (he is contracted for three Percy films with Fox 2000) and will have a new director for this film. Thor Freudenthal who helmed Diary of a Wimpy Kid takes over from Chris Columbus and new writers have been brought on board for the script for Percy Jackson & The Sea of Monsters, the second book in the series by Rick Riordan.

Lerman is currently finishing work on The Perks of Being A Wallflower with Emma Watson and Nina Dobrev in Pennsylvania and has The Three Musketeers coming out in October.

A glamorous look from Emma Watson gets your attention on the cover of the July issue of Vogue.

The 21 year-old actress reveals her struggle with balancing all of her projects and education, her love of the artistic life, costar Daniel Radcliffe, how James Franco helped her figure things out and how she wants control after Harry Potter:

On the Harry Potter ‘bubble’ and Breaking Free: “I have had no control over my life … I have lived in a complete bubble. They found me and picked me for the part. And now I’m desperately trying to find my way through it.”

On Inspiration from Patti Smith: “I want to live like Patti. I want to write like Patti … The book [her 2010 memoir Just Kids] was so honest and brave. I loved the way she sees the world. I really felt that life was more beautiful after I read it, and I felt more hopeful.”

On Daniel Radcliffe: “He understood what his role was … not just as an actor but as the leading man in this enormous franchise. And I think that was almost more important in a way. He held it all together. I am very grateful for him.”

On Getting A Helping Hand From James Franco: “It was such a relief to speak to someone who is trying to do the same thing I’m doing. I talked to him about juggling studying and making films and going backward and forward. He’s not afraid or limited by what he fears people will say about it.”

The Vampire Diaries actress is joining Logan Lerman and Emma Watson for the adaptation of the book by author Stephen Chbosky, according to Deadline.

Dobrev, 21, will play Candace, while Logan is Charlie and Watson has the role of Sam.

The book is consistently challenged in many libraries across the U.S. for it’s themes of drug use, sex, homosexuality, child abuse and suicide according to the American Library Association.

Nina has just wrapped season 2 of The Vampire Diaries and is expected to start filming this soon, on her summer break from TVD. She also stars in The Killing Game with Kellan Lutz, due out later this year.

Logan Lerman gets in some serious sword play in the latest incarnation of The Three Musketeers.

This version, directed by Paul W. S. Anderson is sorta um, Matrix-ified.

Milla Jovovich is spinning in the air while fending off the bad guys and sliding across the floor while the pillars are crumbling and exploding… Lerman is running from a fiery explosion…

Well it does have Lerman and Orlando Bloom in it. Can’t be all bad…

Logan Lerman is surrounded in one of two new photos from his upcoming turn as D’Artagnan in The Three Musketeers 3D. The film is directed by Paul W. S. Anderson and Lerman costars with Orlando Bloom, Milla Jovovich and Ray Stevenson.

The big screen adaptation of the classic novel by Alexandre Dumas is set to hit theaters October 14th.

Dazzling in white and one of the many magazine covers to come featuring the Harry Potter gang as they hit the publicity trail for the two final epic films, Emma Watson is radiant for Vogue UK’s December 2010 issue. Famed photographer Mario Testino is behind the lens to capture Emma’s graceful beauty for the holiday edition of the fashion bible.

The actress tells the mag she is “boring” and that she really didn’t understand how weathly she was until recently:

She was 17 or 18 when her father sat her down for the “money conversation”. Until then she had been living on an allowance of just £50 a week. “By the third or fourth film, the money was starting to get serious,” she said. “I had no idea. I felt sick, very emotional.”

Watson also refuses to read the net and tabloids and the negative nonsense it can bring to a person’s life:

“There’s tons that’s not very nice and I’m very, very self critical, so it was like a drug for me,” she said.

Emma continues to live her life in two distinct halves: one as a regular student on the Brown University campus in Rhode Island and the other as the fabulous movie star that jet sets between film premieres, talk shows and magazine photo shoots. She is grounded and stable and comes across as a thoughtful young woman who is making great choices for her future.

Emma is about to start work on My Week With Marilyn, costarring with Kenneth Branagh and Michelle Williams. Watson was thought to have been a part of The Perks of Being a Wallflower, with Logan Lerman however the actress seems to have dropped out of or never finalized a deal to star in that film.

Logan Lerman and Lily Collins are part of Teen Vogue’s Young Hollywood Class of 2010. The teen stars have some amazing projects lined up for the 2010/2011 movie year:

Collins, who first got your attention in The Blind Side, has been filming Abduction with Taylor Lautner. She is also in the upcoming film, Priest with Cam Gigandet (my personal favorite ex-Twilight cast member.)

Lerman gets to go back to school with Emma Watson in the Perks of Being a Wallflower and is D’Artagnan in The Three Musketeers 3-D.

Check out the video that features Lily, Logan and other young stars below.
