Here’s a look at Uma Thurman in the role of Medusa in ‘Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief,’ which hits theaters Feb. 12 with aspirations of knocking ‘Avatar’ out of that top spot at the box office. And yes, that’s an iPhone Thurman’s got, and since Percy (Logan Lerman) is about to swing his sword at her neck, I’m guessing this scene might have a one-liner about ‘a killer app.’

Our Rachel Abramowitz previously talked to ‘Percy’ director Chris Columbus about Thurman, her slithering scalp and her alluring appeal, you can read that story right here.
