It’s down to (possibly) two in the casting of tribute Johanna Mason in the sequel to The Hunger Games, Catching Fire. In case you’re not familiar, Johanna’s described as “having wide-set brown eyes” with “spiky brown hair” (at least in Catching Fire) and is “very muscular and tan.” She is one of Katniss and Peeta’s strongest allies in the 75th Hunger Games — along with Finnick, whom Teen.com readers already pseudo-cast themselves — therefore an integral character in the soon-to-be film version. And, while we came up with our own potential choices for the role, Mia Wasikowska is reportedly a front-runner.
Although she might not be a strong favorite to some critics (a la Huffington Post, which says “she doesn’t necessarily seem right for the part on first glance. Johanna has a strong-willed sexuality in the books, something that the Alice in Wonderland star has yet to exhibit onscreen”), one person that may tip the scales in her favor is THG star Josh Hutcherson, who played Mia’s younger brother in The Kids Are All Right.

The other supposed front-runner for the part is Zoe Aggeliki, a Swedish, Greek, French model/actress. According to an exclusive on The Playlist, “Aggeliki may not be a familiar face at the moment, but she’ll be seen next summer in R.I.P.D. and also landed a role in Percy Jackson: Sea Of Monsters as Silena Beauregard.”
Catching Fire hits theaters on November 22, 2013. Did you mark it down on your calendar already? Who would you cast for the role of Johanna Mason? How about Finnick?

I absolutley do not like mia!!!! Im glad to hear theyre makung a second pjo movie,however and zoe will be great a silena<3 of johanna<3×2
I say zoe because she looks exactly like i would picture her in the book and mia just looks scared and small and i dont think she could play Johanna
idc who gets it just hope the movie isnt ruined!
Definitely zoe!!!
Zoe because she wasn’t very nice in the book and it would be easier to make her look like JOHANNA
Zoe Aggeliki looks more like Johanna, but as long as Mia (or anyone else, for that matter) is able to convincingly play the part, I’m fine with it. My friends and I have always said that Mila Kunis could make a good Johanna though!
Zoe Aggeliki seems the best choice…she seems like more of a Johanna than Mia Wasikowska … she looks to sweet and innocent!!
I’m in favour of Mia. I think she’s spectacular.
Definatly 100 percent Zoe
Alex Pettyfer as Finnick Odair and Mila Kunis as Johanna Mason. Period then end. Make it happen.
Exactly! I want alex to play finnick so bad but lionsgate has already got there eyes set on garret hedlund and taylor kitsch! Garret hedlund was my second choice but i’m on team alex and always will be! Mila Kunis would be an amazing johanna! If only I had lionsgate on speed dial….
I didn’t know Zoe was playing silena beaurgard in pjo she’s perfect for that part and she’s definetly a better choice for this part
I have to go with Zoe, but it really depends on how well they can learn to fight and how well they can play the character. Looks can easily be changed.
Zoe would make Johanna a better character more like wht u wou
D picture in ur mind
i wanted naya rivera to johanna
definately Zoe Aggeliki
zoe aggeliki seems like the better choice
