OFFICIAL: Amanda Plummer to play Wiress in Catching Fire
Another official announcement from Lionsgate on the Catching Fire cast! They have confirmed that Amanda Plummer will play Wiress in The Hunger Games sequel. I think she’s an amazing choice. Let us know what you think of our very own Wiress.
Here’s the official word from Lionsgate:
Santa Monica, CA, July 17, 2012- Lionsgate® and the filmmakers of THE HUNGER GAMES: CATCHING FIRE are pleased to announce that actress Amanda Plummer has been cast in the role of Wiress in the much anticipated film adaptation of Suzanne Collins’ worldwide smash hit novel Catching Fire. The character’s eccentricity earns her the nickname “Nuts” from fellow tributes, and though she doesn’t communicate traditionally, her observations and contributions prove invaluable in the Quarter Quell.
Best known to film going audiences from her memorable and award nominated roles in THE FISHER KING and PULP FICTION, Plummer is also a beloved, Tony Award® winning stage actress on and off Broadway. She can next be seen as the title character in the forthcoming film ABIGAIL HARMS.

You know,I never really had a mental picture of what Wiress looked like while reading CF.So,I have no objections to Amanda playing her.The only thing I’ve seen her in was A Simple Wish and although it was a comedic role I’m sure she can act serious too.I’m so excited!!
“Tick,tock,tick,tock.”
