Finnick Odair

I am really shocked at the support for Zac Efron...he would not be anywhere near my first choices. He's got way too much baggage to be cast and in my opinion, will take away from the whole storyline. Plus he's too short to be Finnick...

Well that's just your opinion. He's one of the popular votes for Finnick. And 'too much baggage'? he doesn't at all but that's your opinion. Just because he came from movies that not everyone appreciates doesn't mean he can't play in movies like the hunger games. And why are you even saying anything about his appearance! He's definitely not too short and appearances like shortness shouldn't matter when casting a character. That's rude.

Personally, when I was reading i thought of Alex Pettyfer

[MsHungerGamesFan101]

Really? I don't think he would really fit. But then again he could!

Iliminiracer I don't understand, what baggage? I've seen Efron in several movies now and actually he's not a bad choice. Actually he's a pretty good actor. For the current 20 something generation actor, he's probably one of the best looking, although I do think Finnick should be even more beautiful.

On another note, I just saw Titanic 3D last night, and it occurred to me that a young Leo DiCaprio circa Titanic era would've been Finnick incarnate. He probably would be too big to take a secondary role anyway, but Hollywood hierachy aside, a 20-something Leo would've been perfect. Oh well, he's too old now.

Yeah Zac Efron is scheduled to star in more than 10 movies, all of different varieties. He'd be good. But do you think that they'll pick a more famous part for Finnick? Because fans might like Finnick more than Peeta and then attention on Josh might be lost. I think they will end up casting someone a little less popular than Josh IMO.

Zac Effron would be great in definitely the acting. He's definitely good-looking. But I consider him to be just a whee bit....hmm...innocent-looking, maybe? But I wouldn't mind if he was cast, as I find him a very decent actor. Personally, I'd prefer an unknown or someone without a really big name.

Looks can be deceiving.
I think a known without a really big name would be the best approach though.

I doubt they will be able to find anyone hot enough

I want an unknown or a not very well know actor to play him, but some people who I imagine him to LOOK like include Dylan Korroll and Jake Abel

My no 1 Finnick just changed, Dean Geyer would be perfect.

[MsHungerGamesFan101]

I like Dean Geyer. He'd be a good fit.
