I dont' know about you all but I've really been trying to keep up on the Hunger Games movie casting since I am very protective of this book series. I am mostly pleased with who Lionsgate has chosen for the cast but I will say that the casting of Lenny Kravitz as Cinna is throwing me for a loop...to put it kindly.
Take a look through the pictures of the cast and let me know who you are excited about or who you wish they could recast!

I think Lenny is perfect for the part! He's totally eccentric and flamboyant. He'll be great! Good post! That was probably a lot of work. :) xoxo
