New information from Color Force, the production company behind Lionsgate's upcoming movie adaptation of The Hunger Games, say the movie will likely be released sometime in 2012.
Initial reports indicated that the movie would likely be released in late 2011 (with production set to begin in January or February of '11) -- but fans later questioned that timeline, after notes on the website IMDB indicated a 2013 release.
Fansite Mockingjay.net contacted Color Force, which had this to say:
This still isn’t set but the movie will likely be released in 2012.
This news means the initial production timeline may also be delayed -- a suggestion further supported by the fact that a director still has not been hired and no one has been cast for the film. (However, recent reports show that Gary Ross is in talks with Lionsgate to direct The Hunger Games movie.)

Ha ha i know i cant wait either this movie is gonna be great. Well IT BETTER BE. The book series is awesomes i havnt read Mockingjay yet but im going to soon. So far the books are dah bomb and i hope Mockingjay furthers that statement
Sarah pearmon HAS TO PLAY KATNISS!
Peeta : Lucas Fill
Gale: Drew Roy
Haymitch: Hugh Lauire
Prim: Elle Fanning
Thresh: Jared Padalecki
i think Kristen Stewart would be a great Katniss... i dont care if she was in Twilight .... admit it she looks like Katniss Everdeen
Kristen Stewart? Get real. She is way too old to play Katniss, and she CAN'T act!
i have to admit she does look like Katniss, but her acting sucks big time!!!!
so i think id rather see someone else play Katniss. i wouldnt like another
remake of the whole book/ movies sucking...
1. Besides the fact thats she's way to old, she is also nothing like Katniss and we would get a bunch of nine-year old Twilight fans turning the Hunger Games into our worst nightmare and
2. Just on another website with the exact same comment on it, connection?
I am so happy that they are turning the Hunger Games into a movie. It's so perfect for a movie too. I cannot wait until the movie comes out!!!!!!!!!!!! It better be good though, cause i don't want to wait forever for a movie that has nothing to do with the book
Please, please, please, dont ruin the movie....
this is way to good of a book to mess up!!
Listen to the suggestions of the readers for the picking of the cast. No TWILIGHT actors please!!! they already have themselves viewed as a well known character.
I don't know why.... but I just see Austin Butler as Peeta and Luke Wilson as Haymitch... that's the most I would definitely cast so far... Katniss needs to be a new, fresh face out there somewhere!
peeta: alex pettyfer
gale:gaspard ulliel
kayniss:kaya scodelario
Please be rated PG-13!!! If its rated R then im gonna die!!!!
oh my god no twilight characters!! i can't wait for the movie it will be so gory but i am still hoping for pg-13 still! i love both series but i like hunger games more!
Got something to say?
