Hunger Games Movie News: More Hunger Games Movie Actors Cast

Articles courtesy of Hypable.com:

 Last week there had been a lot of talk about John C. Reilly playing Haymitch in The Hunger Games, but as we reported those talks seem to have fallen apart. Who will take the important role?

E! reports that Woody Harrelson is being offered the role of Haymitch now:
Despite numerous reports saying the actor was the top contender for the meaty and crusty middle-aged Haymitch role, a source close to the film tells us exclusively that the part is not going to Reilly.
Good thing we like Lionsgate’s next idea for Haymitch even better! Our Hunger mole tells us the production’s currently smitten with Woody Harreslson, who we think could actually nail the role.
However, good luck getting any this stuff officially confirmed: we’re told until every role is cast and every deal is done, the actors in the film have been put on a gag order.
“They’re telling the actors not to say anything at all and just refer people with questions to their managers and publicists,” says our source. “None of the actors want to be the one to blow it so they’re staying tight-lipped.”
On April 29th we learned of Harrelson’s involvement with the film. At the time no one was speculating he’d play Haymitch since Reilly had apparently filled that role.
As always, we’ll keep you updated!

The latest cast member to join The Hunger Games has been announced, and it’s the person who will play Seneca Crane!

Wes Bentley will portray Seneca, the Head Gamemaker of the 74th Hunger Games.
