Speaking of District 4….WHERE IS FINNICK?!

While Sam Claflin is still rumored to be the best guess, I can’t help but notice how there is nothing but shadow man on the official page. Hmpfh.

To see the full cast as it comes together, make sure to drop by the official Facebook page.

Now on to super distressing news. On the heels of Jennifer Lawrence’s recent paycheck bump for playing Katniss in the sequel, rumor is Liam Hemsworth and Josh Hutcherson are a bit miffed at their own pay increases, and are threatening to walk unless they renegotiate their salaries. Time for another Lionsgate/talent showdown….seems like just yesterday we said goodbye to Gary Ross.

I have a feeling Lionsgate will pay up on this one though, so I’m not too worried.
