Elizabeth Banks Lining Up Supporting Role in The Hunger Games
More news on The Hunger Games casting front! Showblitz reports that Elizabeth Banks is up for the role of Effie Trinket in the highly anticipated adaptation, "the flighty bureaucrat who wrangles the young death-match contestants to their fates." No word yet on who will play former Hunger Games winner (and Katniss mentor) Haymitch, but expect that announcement to happen soon enough. Perhaps Banks' television husband Alec Baldwin? Other suggestions welcome ahead. [Showblitz]

She's a good pick, actually, though IMHO she's slightly too young for the part.
Haymitch ought to be Jeffrey Dean Morgan.
This is all wrong.
She seems nice, but Effie trinkett needs to be Kristen Chenowyth
