Jennifer Lawrence is the front-runner for the lead role of Katniss Everdeen in the film adaptation of the massively popular Hunger Games book series.
The Winter’s Bone Oscar nominee has not been confirmed for Everdeen, but multiple reports place her ahead of other rumored contenders, including Hailee Steinfeld and Abigail Breslin.
Suzanne Collins‘ young adult novels are set in a dystopian future in what used to be the United States. Everdeen (who is 16 years old in the book) participates in the Hunger Games, a government-sponsored televised fight to the death among children.
Gossip Cop will have updates when casting decisions are finalized.
