Hunger Games Casting

Woody Harrelson has landed the coveted role of Katniss Everdeen’s mentor, Haymitch, in the upcoming big-screen adaptation of Suzanne Collins’ bestselling novel.



 Haymitch, as described in the book, is a drunk who was victorious in the 50th Hunger Games, more than two decades before Katniss’ deadly adventures begin - perfect for Mr Harrelson I'm thinking.


Woody joins Jennifer Lawrence as District 12 tribute Katniss, Josh Hutcherson as Peeta, Elizabeth Banks as Katniss’ handler Effie, Liam Hemsworth as Gale, Stanley Tucci as Hunger Games host Caesar Flickerman and Wes Bentley as head gamemaker Seneca Crane.



Shaping up to be a bloody brilliant cast - can not wait.
