Rumor: Zoe Aggeliki is the Front Runner for Johanna Mason

Looks like we might have a Hunger Games winner! Zoe Aggeliki has the edge over Jena Malone for a role in Lionsgate‘s The Hunger Games sequel Catching Fire. Aggeliki and Malone (Sucker Punch) are up for the part of Johanna Mason, an ax-welding, deceptive and ruthless winner of a previous Hunger Games in the sequel film. However, sources say model-actress Aggeliki is the one in the most serious talks after both auditioned for director Francis Lawrence.

Aggeliki has roles in the upcoming R.I.P.D. and another sequel, Percy Jackson: Sea Of Monsters. Lawrence took over as director on Catching Fire after original Hunger Games director Gary Ross choose in April not to helm the blockbuster’s sequel. The Mason character plays a pivotal role in the first and second Hunger Games sequels and would be a meaty role and career boost for any performer. With Jennifer Lawrence reprising her role as Katniss Everdeen, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire is scheduled for release November 22, 2013."

Deadline is usually on top of these things. Thoughts? (still want my girl Jaimie Alexander) but I wouldn't mind this girl.

Every time I read something like Lawrence took over as director, for a split second I'm always like 'wait Jlaw is directing?'

And every time someone calls her JLaw, I think they're talking about Jude Law.

I wish they'd just cast someone

lolbye 29th-Jun-2012 05:14 am (UTC)

Ikr telling us someone is in the running just gives us time to pick them apart and hate them. If they just cast someone I'd be much more inclined to make myself like them.

rogue 29th-Jun-2012 02:34 pm (UTC)

this.
how many rumors do we freaking need

lolbye 29th-Jun-2012 05:11 am (UTC)

And I definitely didn't picture Johanna as that pretty, so if she does get it I hope they make her look a bit rough.

onyxobsidian 29th-Jun-2012 06:37 am (UTC)

I'm sure they would. But that's why I liked Mia Whatthefuckeva as Johanna since she already has a sort of interestingly unconventional face

carma_bee 29th-Jun-2012 05:12 am (UTC)

tbh not going to believe any of this until there's something official bc there's been so much 'this person is in the running!' and then it turns out they aren't at all. so they need to hurry up

crispy1088 29th-Jun-2012 05:12 am (UTC)

Just cast someone already, and get it over with. These rumors are tiring.

I still want Ruth Negga, but I'm all for an unknown.

onyxobsidian 29th-Jun-2012 06:38 am (UTC)

the name Ruth Negga associated with Hunger Games always makes me so uncomfortable. Since so many people had negative things to say about the casting of Ruth, including calling her names like ... you know.

godramaclub 29th-Jun-2012 08:45 am (UTC)

People have called her that? Ew. Aside from being super gross and offensive, that's just really cheap. Ugh, people.

Honestly, I encourage any opportunity to bring racists out of hiding.

I did think of that. :\ But I figure, you know, you can't build around idiots like that; you have to just treat them like they're idiots. And I'm sure she's heard that before, but if she got an awesome role like that it'd be a good way of telling them to fuck off. IDK.
