User blog:Bchwood/Donald Sutherland Cast as President Snow

The nation of Panem has a new ruler.

Lionsgate announced in a press release that Donald Sutherland has been cast as President Snow in the film adaptation of The Hunger Games.

This seems like another great bit of casting. Sutherland is known for playing mysterious, often malevolent characters and he fits the book's description of the character as thin and unassuming. He will surely be a strong presence for lead actors Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson to contend with.

What do you think, will Donald Sutherland make a good President Snow? Let us know!
