Robert Pattinson Shoots Down Catching Fire Casting Rumor

So much for that casting rumor.

A few days after word spread that Robert Pattinson was being considered for the role of Finnick Odar – a Hunger Games character with whom this actor shares nary a physical trait – in Catching Fire, the handsome star has come out and made it clear:

“I woke up this morning and saw all these things about me being cast in The Hunger Games,” Pattinson told USA Today. “I was kind of curious for a second. So I called my agent… [he] was like no one’s going to offer you that part. I was like, ‘thanks for the reassurance.’”

That’s probably a good thing.

So, with Pattinson out of the running, the question remains: Who should take on the physically gifted role of Finnick?
