Examiner.com is reporting that Emmy award-winning writer Danny Strong,who is better known to fans of Buffy as the evil Jonathan Levinson, has been chosen to write the screenplay for Mockingjay.
In addition, Lionsgate has released the full cast list for all 13 district tributes to be seen in Catching Fire here. Catching Fire isn’t expected to finish filming until December 2012 with an expected release of November 2013. It’s been reported that Mockingjay is going the Breaking Dawn route and being broken into two films with a 2014 and 2015 release schedule.
Finally, there has been much speculation over the seemingly out of left field casting of Sam Claflin as Finnick Odair (I for one am still bummed that we won’t see Armie Hammer wielding a trident) but in any event, maybe these new cast photos will change people’s minds? Hello sailor.
