Hunger Games Cast / Leaked Photos

The Hunger Games could not be showing at a more opportune time - the uber successful Harry Potter franchise has ended and the Twilight vampire series is coming to its conclusion. The question is whether the movie's success will be comparable to these 2 golden box office hits, or if it is doomed to fail like the other fantasy book turned movie flicks before it (Golden Compass, Spiderwick, Lemony Snickett to name a few).

In any case, the role for the central characters have been cast and there are a couple of teaser photos out on the net already, and I am very impressed with the casting, especifally with Katniss, who is played by Jennifer Lawrence. The description of Katniss is a little vague in the book but upon seeing this picture, this was immediately the photo I envisioned:

The role of Gale and Peeta were given to Liam Hemsworth and Josh Hutcherson (in that order) and based on initial photos, they seem to be owning up to the role as well:

I think it's also GENIUS to cast Woody Harrelson as the drunkard (who has a genius harboring inside him) Haymitch Abernathy as well as Stanley Tucci as the television host Caesar Flickerman.

Hopefully, the level of action will be riveting and intense enough as the plot revolves around a death race after all.

So, is anyone hungry for The Hunger Games?

The Hunger Games Movie showing is slated to be on March 23, 2012.
