Woody is Haymitch!

Guys, we have HAYMITCH!


OMG. I am freaking out! This is such amazing casting! Check it out!

Plus we have Stanley "He can do NO wrong" Tucci cast as Caesar Flickerman! This just keeps getting better!

What do you guys think?

    Oh no, I don't see it!!! :( I always think of him as Woody from Cheers... I hope I'm pleasantly surprised when I see the film, but I was hoping for Hugh Laurie or Robert Downey Jr.

    Man, I'd never have thought of Woody, but he's a great choice! @Kathryn, he tends to be a lot harder in film roles (even though Woody from Cheers is a fav) so I think he can bring the appropriate edge to Haymitch.

    I am SO freaking excited for Woody Harrelson as Haymitch, AND Stanley Tucci as Ceaser! Ahh!

    @Kathryn--If you haven't, you might want to check out Zombieland. Woody Harrelson plays a character that reminds me v. much of Haymitch at times. I think Robert Downey Jr. is too entrenched as Iron Man at this point to pull off Haymitch.

    Now I want to know...who's going to be Cinna?!

    Woody is PERFECT! I hadn't even thought of him, but he'd be awesome, especially after seeing him in Zombieland. And Stanley Tucci will be incredible, too.
    PS - I love that I learned this news from my own blog. You go, Frankie! Way to be efficient!

    I love these two actors and think they will be great! I did picture Haymitch a lot fatter and uglier than Woody (though I'm not even sure I have any good basis for that because I don't think he is described that way...can't remember) but it's still an exciting line up :-)

    I would never have thought of Woody as Haymitch, but I can definitely see it! I was hoping for Hugh Laurie - love him! - but I think Woody will be great!

    Wow, I never would've thought about Woody as Haymitch. I agree with some other commenters, I was secretly hoping for Hugh Laurie, but I bet Woody will be excellent.

    Now forgive me, it's been a while since I read the HG books. Why can't I remember who Ceasar is? Off to Google...

    I can't wait for this. I can so see Woody in that role.

    Like Melissa, I pictured Haymitch as fatter. I totally never would have chosen Woody, but the more I think about his acting skills, the more I realize he could be excellent.

    And Stanley Tucci will be. That goes without saying.

    Thanks for the heads-up, Frankie.
