So the big question is: Should Lionsgate cast younger or older? There are obviously valid arguments for both sides. Perhaps, like me, you're tired of seeing 30-year-olds play 16-year-olds (hello, "90210"!) and crave a bit of authenticity in your teen dramas. On the other hand, there's something to be said for an actor who's reached the level of maturity necessary to play such a gritty part (though, to be sure, Abigail and Hailee are no slouches—they have had a date with Oscar, after all).What do you think?

young. katniss hasn't ever had steroids in her food since its all freshly killed so she looks younger. unless she naturally looks older but i always pictured her exactly like me, with darker skin and im 14.
ReplyDeleteI agree. Younger would also give her a chance to grow into the part as the series progresses.
