It’s a good week to be Suzanne Collins, especially considering recent reports that Lionsgate is getting ready to choose their director for the hotly anticipated film adaptations.
According to Deadline Hollywood, the studio is down to three directors: Gary Ross (The Tale of Despereaux), Sam Mendes (Revolutionary Road), and David Slade (Twilight: Eclipse).
The question is, if Slade gets the job, what does that do to Wolverine 2?
Meanwhile, USA Today is claiming that Chloe Moretz (Let Me In) has the inside track for the lead role, as protagonist Katniss Everdeen, an expert in hunting, archery, and lying in front of television cameras for strategic purposes.
The Hunger Games’ screenplay was written by the book’s author, Collins, with a pollish by Billy Ray (24). The Hunger Games is set to start shooting early next year.
