So much movie news!

Ten out of the twelve Tributes have been cast as well as Seneca Crane! Honestly, most of the Tributes don't play a big enough role (except for the Careers) for me to care who they are or if they look right for the role. A lot of them look super young to me but I keep on forgetting that the age limit for these kids is 18. I guess because they are so violent that it's hard for me to remember how young they are supposed to be. For those of you who aren't fans of The Hunger Games movie on Facebook should do so immediately because they have a page dedicated to the Tributes and casting. It is pretty much where I get all of my info on casting and such!

Link here for that.

Like I said Seneca Crane, the Head Gamemaker, has also been cast and (the very sexy) Wes Bentley has been chosen for the role. I haven't really seen a movie with him in it, except for P2 when he played a crazed killer man, so I can't really judge on his acting skills. But I'm optimistic about his ability to play Mr. Crane.

Lastly, it has been rumored that John C. Reilly (Step-Brothers) will be playing Haymitch. I will be pissed if this turns out to be true so that is all I'm gonna say about that.

Also, ABC Family seems to be picking up on the book craze. After making Pretty Little Liars a smash hit and trying out (and failing, I think) Huge they are trying again! Their new series The Nine Lives of Chloe King, premiering June 14th, is based on a book series by Celia Thomson. In the series Chloe dies when she falls from a super high tower but wakes up with the super abilities of a cat...and now people want her dead.



I read the first book in the series like six years ago (literally) and I remember liking it but my taste has changed so much since then that I need to try it out again.

Saoirse Ronan has been cast as Melanie/Wanderer in The Host! I love this girl and I think she is a great actress and she definitely has some backgroud with book adaptations. The only thing I don't like about her is that she looks a little young. This girl is only 16 and she looks young for her age but she is supposed to be play a 20 year old.

(I tried to find a picture where she looked a bit older)

The geniuses behind Next Movie have compiled a list of all the book adaptations that are currently in the works. Some of them even surprised me! Get that list here.
