TRACKER JACKER WATCH: Somewhat surprisingly, Deadline burys the lede in its coverage of new Hunger Games casting. Yes, Ross and his team have wisely gone with relative unknowns for some important roles (Glimmer, Thresh, Rue), but Elizabeth Banks as Effie Trinket? Note-perfect. Unfortunately, fan fave idea Hugh Laurie as Haymitch (I still think he's too old--Haymitch is in his late 30s or early 40s) seems off the table since he's lined up a film gig in New Zealand while House is on hiatus.
