THE HUNGER GAMES NEWS REPORT: CAST OF CATCHING FIRE

     Hey, so I decided to do a little news segment for all of you HG fans who can't wait for Catching Fire, me being one!  So, here are the details:

     For Katniss, they had new auditions, because they kind of have to.  So, the good news is: THEY STUCK WITH JENNIFER LAWRENCE!!!!  That was probably the greatest decision they could possibly make, and she was SO great in the first movie, and it would NOT be good for the ratings if they didn't choose her, so, I say, it was a great decision, and by the way, see her in theaters NOVEMBER 23, 2013!!!!!!!! Gosh, I REALLY hope the world doesn't end!!! :)



        For Peeta, the same thing happened.  They had the auditions, and he got the part, thankfully!  I think he was really great, and I look forward to NOVEMBER!!!!!! XD  I wonder how on earth they are going to make everyone look presentable in blue jumpsuits and six-inch-wide purple belts... I guess we'll find out!

               Now, for the victors.  Cashmere is played by Stephanie Leigh Schlund, and, to be honest, I imagined Cashmere EXACTLY like her!!!  You may recognize her from The Last Song, in which she played Will's (Liam Hemsworth) ex-girlfreind.  She seems like she would be the perfect Cashmere, but we won't know for sure until it comes out.  Let's hope for the best!



           For Gloss, they cast Alan Ritchson...  I've never heard of him, but I'm pretty sure he was in Superman...or was it Batman?  Well, whatever the case, he seems good enough.  He is supposed to look like Cashmere, after all they are brother and sister, but what do you think?




       

          Enobaria is played by Meta Golding...  She looks NOTHING like I imagined Enobaria...at all.  I'm not being racist, but she was not black in my mind.  I imagined her with honey-blond hair and brown eyes, and then, of course, her bizarre teeth.  Do you agree?








        


         Gary Ross chose Bruno Gunn as Brutus.  I think it was a good move on his part.  Bruno Gunn is almost exactly like I imagined him to look like.  He's a little older than I'd expected, but that doesn't mean that he'll be terrible.  You can't judge someone.  We'll see how he acts in November.






       


     Beetee is played by Jeffrey Wright.  Not to be rude, but, THAT IS NOT BEETEE.  I do not know what was going through the director's mind on that one, because, if I remember correctly, and I quote," Both are small in stature with ashen skin and black hair...Beetee, the man, is older and somewhat fidgety.  He wears glasses but spends a lot of time looking under them."  Does Jeffrey Wright match any of that?  I think NOT!

     The director chose Amanda Plummer to be Wiress, and it's not a bad decision, but I'm not completely on board with it.  I imagined her younger, and once again, I don't see much of a resemblance. And really, can you imagine her saying, "tick, tock, tick, tock," over and over and over? And then it says that she sings that song about the mouse running up a clock.  Can you see that?


      




      Finnick... The gorgeous, young victor from District Four.  The one with bronze hair, tan skin and sea green eyes.  The one who is madly in love with Annie Cresta, the one who is really mad here.  Is Sam Claflin Finnick Odair?






       
    They chose Lynn Cohen to play Mags.  She isn't really how I imagined her, but she's WAY better than Betty White, who actually auditioned to be Mags.  LOL!!!!!!!  But Lynn Cohen seems good enough, so let's wait and see!



     
      Johanna Mason is played by Jena Malone.  I think that was a great decision.  She looks like Johanna with darker, longer hair.  I can't wait to see that... Oh, wait.  I forgot about what happens when Katniss meets her.  That's gonna be awkward.  Oh well.  I think she'll be great.

  

     

    For Seeder, the director chose Maria Howell.  Great choice.  With longer hair, she doesn't look like Seeder, she is Seeder.  I agree with the people in charge on this one.  What about you? 








     

   Chaff is going to be played by E. Roger Mitchell.  I thought he would be older, but otherwise, great job directors!  I remember Katniss saying that Chaff was black.  How are they going to make his arm end in a stump?  They did it with Soul Surfer, so I have faith in them.  Do you agree?

That's all of the victors, well the ones that are featured.  You don't really have to know the others.  I'll update on news soon.  Let me know what you think!
