Lionsgate launches official 'Hunger Games' movie Facebook fan page

Production on The Hunger Games movie hasn't even begun yet, but Lionsgate has already launched an official fan page on Facebook for the film.

So far, activity on the page is minimal, considering it just launched this past weekend. But the page does include links to a few recent articles about The Hunger Games movie -- namely famous fans and fan-picks for casting. The release date is listed only as "COMING SOON" -- although producers recently said they expect the movie will come out in 2012.

Lionsgate is still in talks with directors, with reports that Gary Ross is in the lead to get the job. Suzanne Collins has already written a screenplay and veteran screenwriter Billy Ray edited it.

No word yet on when a director will be announced, or when casting will begin. Producers hope to begin filming in January or February.
