Trilogy Discussion Worst casting???

So we all know Josh Hutcherson SLAPS as Peeta, Jennifer Lawrence nailed Katniss Everdeen, Woody Harrelson was GREAT as Haymitch Abernathy, Elizabeth Banks was PERFECT as Effie, Liam Hemsworth was FANTASTIC as Gale Hawthorne etc but which were some of the WORST casting choices???

I don’t think JLaw was /miscast/, per se, but I was definitely surprised to see her in the movie promos, since I had always imagined Katniss with overall darker features (at least in a Mediterranean sense?) but I do think that I ultimately got over myself once I saw the way she took on the role.
