I dont remember what I was looking for when I came across the fact that, OH MY GOSH, they're making The Hunger Games into a movie?! Practically every Google result was a fan-made cast list, so I decided, hey, why not jump on the bandwagon? I've never been one to try to match actors to what I imagine [book characters] to be, so I sort-of had to go with a variety of selections from other lists. (*The one thing I can compltely picture is the muttations looking like those dog-type creatures from Avatar*) Honestly, I'd be perfectly fine if all the actors were no-names, just as long as the book/movie adaptation doesn't suck! (Hint: casting Megan Fox as Katniss would make it suck). If you have your own "fantasy cast list", please share!
Cato
Kellan Lutz
Gale
Taylor Lautner. Sorry to those of you disappointed with seeing Twilight actors in every movie, but this was the only actor I could actually place to a character from the book before I looked at others' lists.
Glimmer
Hayden Panettiere
Haymitch
Jack Nicholson
Katniss
Camilla Belle
Peeta
William Moseley
Rue
Jodelle Ferland, even though she still freaks me out (Silent Hill) and has the wrong color skin, she was the only one I was able to find with "the eyes".
Thresh
Drew Roy, but they'd have to rough him up a bit.
My first time hopping over - I really think I need to read this series! :)
ReplyDeleteHopping over from the Blog Hop. Thanks for stopping by my blog. I love the Hunger Games books and absolutely can't wait for Mockingjay. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteJenn, I highly recommend it! If you do, please come back and let me know what you think. :)
ReplyDeleteNo, No, NO! This is al wrong (no effense) Check out my list what do ya think?
ReplyDeleteKatniss- Anna Popplewell
Petta- Jesse McCartney, Alex Pettyfer
Gale- Gaspard Ulliel
Prim "Primrose"- Elle Fanning
Haymitch- Hugh Laurie
Efiie Trinket- Miranda Richarson
Madge- Emma Roberts
Rue- Alana Locke
Glimmer- Taylor Swift
Thresh- Kyle Massey
FoxFace- Bonnie Wright
Cato- Kellan Lutz
Avox Girl- Danielle Panabaker
Mrs. and Mr. Everdeen- Sienna Guillory & George Clooney
Cinna- Hugh Dancy
What do you think?
I can see Jesse McCartney as Peeta.
ReplyDeleteI can also see Elle as Prim if they make her look a couple years older, then again, I didn't have anyone picked out for her, anyway. Same goes for your Mrs. Everdeen.
I do like Alana Locke better than Jodelle Ferland.
Definitely can't picture your Gale, Thresh, or Katniss.
Hugh Laurie was my first thought for Haymitch but then I decided no one can portray a drunk semi-crazy "deadbeat" better than Jack.
Glad we at least agree on Cato!
