This is all very new so there isn't much info available on dates, casting, etc. Right now, there's an estimated release for 2011. I know that's still pretty far away, but I'm happy just knowing that it's on the horizon!
We also know that Nina Jacobson is slated to be the Executive Producer and Ms. Suzanne Collins herself will be writing the screenplay. I think that's pretty darn fantastic because who knows the story better than its creator, right?
Here is a little video/trailer goodness for you:
I'm not really sure who I'd like to see as Katniss, but I imagine someone like a young Angelina Jolie. What do you guys think??

I can't wait for the movie, wow even though the trailer isn't the real one it was pretty good! lol, I sorta picture the movie like that. I can see why you'd pick a young Angelina Jolie, maybe a look like her movie Tomb Raider but with way more clothes on lol :)
ReplyDeleteI was so happy to hear that Suzanne Collins was writing the screenplay!
ReplyDeleteThe casting of Katniss is going to make or break this film.
