The Hunger Games: Catching Fire hits theaters November 22, 2013, but the final two films of the series are building up their casts in order to finalize this film franchise right. As the concluding book of the series, Mockingjay was split into two films and has been in pre-production ever since Catching Fire wrapped. Now we have a list of impressive names attached to the final installments! (SPOILERS to follow)
Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson and Liam Hemsworth all return to reprise their Hunger Games roles in the final two movies.
Over the summer, we learned that Game of Thrones star Natalie Dormer was cast as Cressida and Julian Moore was cast as President Alma Coin. We also found out that Stef Dawson and Evan Ross also joined the cast.
