The perfect tribute? Armed and dangerous
Despite other prime roles being locked up for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire it damn near took all summer for Lionsgate to settle on one actor to play former Games' winning Tribute, Finnick. Armie Hammer and Matt Bomer were a couple of names thrown into the casting couch rumor mill, but in the end the studio found their man in Sam Claflin. You may recall having seen this hot young actor previously in Snow White and the Huntsman or Pirates of the Carribean: On Stranger Tides.
