I feel like he would be totally amazing at conveying the sensitive side of Finnick. Like he can all seductive but tearfully sweet!

Ruby Yeah. Benjamin Stonnneeeeee


Kristen Ok, I didn't read all the comments, but I did see the suggestions of Zac Effron, Niel Patrick Harris, Tom Felton, and Robert Pattinson.

NO, no, no!!!

Finnick needs to be beefy and universally hot. Zac is WAY overrated, and too young I think. And he's a conceited jerk, so I just don't like him. Niel is way too old and neither beefy nor hot. Tom is adorable but neither hot nor beefy. And still too young. And Robert Pattinson. Just no. We don't want this to turn into Twilight please. Plus he doesn't really fit the requirements either.

I love Finnick, as I know many do, and personally think any of those choices would completely ruin the character.

I did sort of like the suggestion for the guy who played Capitain America though. He's about the right age, has the muscles and is a hottie. Although I pictured him as a little less all American boy and more Greek godish.


Kristen Ruby wrote: "Yeah. Benjamin Stonnneeeeee"

Ooo, yeah, he definitely has the look I pictured for Finnick. But he looks a little too young to me. Isn't Finnick about 30?

Yeah! Greek godish is a good description!:) Kristen, Finnick is 24!


Kristen Oh, lol I always get my own idea of various things about characters stuck in my head. I have no idea why.
But Finnick just seems older to me. Maybe because everyone in this world has to grow up so quickly.

Ahaha it's the opposite with me! I always thought Finnick seemed younger. Like 19 or twentyish. I was like ohh he's still around my age. I can relate! haha


Emily I think that Alex Pettyfer should be Finnick. I used to think that Zac Efron would be a good one but now I am thinking Alex Pettyfer would be a great Finnick!

Alex Pettyfer is so freaking smexy :D I agree!!!!!

lol, maybe that's why - because all the characters are so relatable. And well, I'm not quite thirty, but I'm closer to that than 19.

Oh, yeah, he's good too. I think he needs more muscles though.

Kristen KareB wrote: "Still going with Kellan Lutz"

I love Kellan! And he has the goofy personality but also the capability to play the serious and dangerous side. And he's definitely got the look. I'd just worry about crossing anyone over from Twilight...I kinda like the no names best because I don't associate them with much if anything else.

But I can totally see him doing the naked elevator scene! LOL!

I wonder if he was in some background shot or something...Well, it doesn't say he's in the cast for Catching Fire, so it still might change. I heard that the only ones for sure to keep going in the series were the actors playing Peeta, Katniss, and Gale. But I think he's a good pick for Finnick, so I hope he continues too.

Kaitlin Personally a fan of Jake Abel...but that could just be me ;)
Seriously though...anyone but Alex Pettyfer. I actually don't think they could cast him though because of the contoversy among tha fans over him.


Andrea In my head, Finnick was always

Melinda Szymanik Matthew Good for Finnick Adair - he's got Finnick's cheekiness and a swimmer's build

I've actually never seen him in a movie *guilty* but GOD he's gorgeous. I think he would be really good for Jace in The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare.
