Sam Claflin - Sam Claflin Cast As Finnick Odair In 'Catching Fire'

Finnick Odair is the manipulative, yet alluring character that Katniss Everdeen (played by Jennifer Lawrence) has to face when she returns to the Hunger Games arena. The two form an alliance, though Katniss remains wary of him. Clafin made an impressive screen debut back in 2010, with two award-winning series, 'The Pillars of The Earth' and 'Any Human Heart.' His debut film role came with his performance as the footballer Duncan Edwards in 'United,' the following year. His big break came when he landed the role of Phillip in Pirates of the Caribbean, alongside Johnny Depp, before being cast in Snow White and the Huntsman.

Other actors known to have been cast in the highly-anticipated Hunger Games sequel are Jena Malone (Donnie Darko), who will play Johanna Mason and Philip Seymour Hoffman, who has been cast in the role of Plutarch Heavensbee. Hunger Games: Catching Fire is scheduled for release in November 2013.
