You know, I get that the most important role to cast in the Hunger Games film is Katniss, and I don't want to get all "but what of the men?" but I think that in getting caught up in the search for the perfect Katniss, fans of the series may be ignoring a serious danger - I read an article the other day saying that the strongest contender for the role of Peeta was Alex Pettyfer.

Which also makes me wonder about the fact that, though in the last few years Hollywood has discovered young actresses both in and out of the Twilight films (and their imitators), its young actors seem to be coming exclusively from the former group.
