She was excellent in Winter's Bone but I'd had my heart set on the girl from True Grit getting the part! Especially after discussing it with my physical therapist last night.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Me too. Friends and I were just discussing the books last night. I earned 3 new toasters passing my copies around.
I initially thought Steinfeld was too young, since she's just fourteen (although maybe fifteen by now?), but the good thing is, she would age into the role pretty well if they make all three.
From reading around, it looks like this guy [link] is in the lead to play Peeta and has said casting someone 14 would make it weird for him to do.
Oh, I'd prefer him to Alex Pettyfer, who I know nothing about.
I have never seen him in anything, but he was in Beastly and I Am Number Four earlier this year.
He actually looks pretty good for Peeta, although I still picture someone a little more rugged.

He looks too polished and handsome for the Peeta in the my head, and possibly too skinny.
Which one? Alex looks more rugged but way older.
What sj said, Daisy. But if they scruff him up a little, Parrish would work okay for me.
I definitely want whoever plays Gale to look older than Peeta.
