Robert Pattinson Being Considered For Role In ‘Hunger Games’ Sequel, Kristen Stewart Ignored




Robert Pattinson might be getting ready to close up shop on the Twilight franchise . . . but that doesn't mean he’ll be out of business. There are plenty of other perfectly logical options for the actor, such as working on another film franchise inspired by a popular YA book, The Hunger Games. While nothing has been set in stone, and this reporting is based off of a wide range of speculation circulating around the web, people are saying that R-pattz is being heavily considered for the role of Finnick Odair in Catching Fire, the sequel to this spring’s incredibly successful film based off of Suzanne Collins’s novel.

There’s been no mention of Kristen Stewart being considered for the film. Wonder how she feels about her boyfriend possibly starring in a new wildly successful film franchise without her–and, on top of all that, alongside her alleged arch-nemesis Jennifer Lawrence?

It will be exciting to see if this rumor is true. According to Celeb Gather, other actors who are being considered for roles in the film:

Other stars considered as possibilities for Catchi ng Fire characters are Mila Kunis as Johanna Mason, Twilight‘s Peter Facinelli as Betee, and Betty White as Katniss’ friend, Mags. 

Betty White would be a fun possibility, as well as Mila Kunis! We can’t wait for the day when the studio releases the press release outlining the film’s official roster. Who would you like to see welcomed into the arena?

You might have thought the Hunger Games news has died down — well you’ve thought wrong, my friends. Hunger Games news will continue to happen and, especially as the studio heads into production, the news will continue to boom. 

this is hilarious

madwatch 22nd-Apr-2012 07:31 pm (UTC)
god i hope so. it reads like it for sure.
tracygee 22nd-Apr-2012 10:30 pm (UTC)
No, some gossip web thing.

Why people are taking this seriously is beyond me. It's completely made up.
zere 22nd-Apr-2012 01:05 am (UTC)
I rarely care much about casting but I would rage if he was Finnick. Absolutely wrong. WROOOONG

hpxstac 22nd-Apr-2012 04:44 am (UTC)
Nope.
megzzy 22nd-Apr-2012 05:43 am (UTC)
I could be on board with this.

pinkprincessnat 22nd-Apr-2012 01:06 am (UTC)
How about no twilight people? Keep it separate. I rather they cast unknowns
tribalmink 22nd-Apr-2012 01:06 am (UTC)
Mte
loveackshuly 22nd-Apr-2012 01:25 am (UTC)
I really doubt any Twilight people will be in it.
green__desire 22nd-Apr-2012 01:32 am (UTC)
because they really kept twilight separate from HP cast....
pinkprincessnat 22nd-Apr-2012 02:04 am (UTC)
I knew someone would mention that lol. They should take that as a lesson then and not do it again.
robinsparkle 22nd-Apr-2012 04:47 am (UTC)
To be fair, no one ever thought Twilight would be as big as it is now.
jinxeh13 22nd-Apr-2012 07:23 pm (UTC)
And the Harry Potter movies sucked. Your point?
xbleedingheartx 22nd-Apr-2012 01:35 am (UTC)
Agreed so much!
baloola 22nd-Apr-2012 02:12 am (UTC)
I thought I read before that the casting people made a rule about not hiring twilight people which makes me think this article is bs. But maybe I'm just making stuff up.
slaygalthessily 22nd-Apr-2012 03:40 am (UTC)
i thought that's what lionsgate or something...

*kills self*
wiluplsbquiet 22nd-Apr-2012 01:06 am (UTC)
but....what happened to that no crossover thing between Twilight and HG?

Was that made up or what?
slaygalthessily 22nd-Apr-2012 03:42 am (UTC)
i'm hoping it's THIS that's made up. I read the same thing and I'll physically harm someone if they go back on it. The two need to be separate, especially now that they're under, pretty much, the same company.
blowjob 22nd-Apr-2012 01:06 am (UTC)
I heard Chad White was being considered for Finnick ?
squishinator 22nd-Apr-2012 01:08 am (UTC)
googled him... hes like a generic channing tatum.

But i could see him more than rpattz
bprorsum 22nd-Apr-2012 01:29 am (UTC)
Chad White is a generic Channing Tatum?

Gurl...
tebtosca 22nd-Apr-2012 01:40 am (UTC)
His jaw is very...um...prominent
myxwill 22nd-Apr-2012 01:55 am (UTC)
Chad white is what Channing Tatum would look like if his homo erectus looking ass would evolve.
judgmental 22nd-Apr-2012 05:21 am (UTC)
Are you implying Channing Tatum is NOT generic?
telemann 22nd-Apr-2012 01:47 am (UTC)
Hot dude.
nicholasdee 22nd-Apr-2012 01:53 am (UTC)
tbh, i think they should audition male models

but they need to make sure they can act, thats the problem

never been a chad fan though
morganzola 22nd-Apr-2012 01:06 am (UTC)
I don't know if this would make sense for Lionsgate as it would confuse the brands.
scientist 22nd-Apr-2012 01:06 am (UTC)
people are saying that R-pattz is being heavily considered for the role of Finnick Odair in Catching Fire.

no he isn't. please stop with this dumb april fool's rumor.
chrisgold 22nd-Apr-2012 01:21 am (UTC)
I'm really confused as to why this keep getting repeated. Is the THG fandom really this dumb or is it some pseudo wishful thinking?
scientist 22nd-Apr-2012 01:24 am (UTC)
i bet 90% of the people here didn't even read the post lbr. they're acting as if he's 'in talks' to get the part lol. it sucks that he's getting so much shit just because someone created this rumor for fun.
classic_mold137 22nd-Apr-2012 01:06 am (UTC)
This is glorious. I can't stop laughing.
comava 22nd-Apr-2012 01:03 pm (UTC)
What you said but in regards to your icon!!!
bnlmaroonvwbug 22nd-Apr-2012 01:06 am (UTC)
NO. FUCK NO.

i have no problem with robert but nooo because the role belongs to harry lloyd.
sursumcorda 22nd-Apr-2012 01:30 am (UTC)
oh damn, i actually love that.
sweetnessarose 22nd-Apr-2012 01:38 am (UTC)
OMG MY OVARIES WOULD BURST
metal_chick217 22nd-Apr-2012 01:45 am (UTC)
holy shit BUENA IDEA
abitobsessed 22nd-Apr-2012 02:55 am (UTC)
Love that idea!
anolinde 22nd-Apr-2012 03:32 am (UTC)
Just Googled that guy and, um, ew.
marinade 22nd-Apr-2012 04:17 am (UTC)
If the audition was for Toad ala X-Men universe, I'd say yes.
robinsparkle 22nd-Apr-2012 04:49 am (UTC)
Googled him....weirdest choice so far tbh. He's just not conventionally attractive
myhipusername 22nd-Apr-2012 06:21 am (UTC)
um idts
caroolk3 22nd-Apr-2012 01:07 am (UTC)
lol why would Kristen have to be considered just because Robert is
unintended 22nd-Apr-2012 01:18 am (UTC)
Because they have to be in everything together forever, duh!
fight4thislove 22nd-Apr-2012 01:55 am (UTC)
Because Rob and Kristen are in everything together. She was a sloth in z
Water for Elephants and he's playing Tree #3 in Snow White and the Huntsman.
rhagelover 22nd-Apr-2012 04:00 am (UTC)
omg
myhipusername 22nd-Apr-2012 06:21 am (UTC)
dying rn
slaygalthessily 22nd-Apr-2012 03:45 am (UTC)
because, marketing wise, it would probably be a good idea.... if you wanted to play of the twilight thing to get more viewers..... idk...that's all i have.
