Lionsgate and director Gary Ross have tapped another young face for a key role in The Hunger Games. He set newcomer Willow Shields to play Primrose Everdeen, sister of Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence). It is Primrose who originally gets selected to participate in The Hunger Games. She would get mauled by the competition, and her older sister, an expert archer, takes her place.


This is RIDICULOUS casting! In the book, Primose had a small freckle on her neck and her dimples were more pronounced. Also her hair is parted differently than this actress. When are these filmmakers going to get it right???!!
I’m so tired of you terrible fans picking on an 11 year old girl just becuse of a unibrow it is the stupidist thing ever and btw her hair is fine
So they went CHEAP. She’s a local hire, from New Mexico. Doesn’t even have an LA or NY agent. Newcomer is an understatement, since she seems to have had one principal role in her life. Shocked that they would go this direction with a major character that appears in several of the films. Very risky casting.
Hilarious!
do you want to know what funny is you! Willow is beuitiful and a perfect Prim!
