“You can say what you will about the quality of The Hunger Games, either book or movie, but it was one of the absolute best-cast adaptations in history. This is particularly true of President Alma Coin in the Mockingjay movies.

I remember when she was cast, one of the questions being discussed online was whether the actress would dye her hair grey. I actually had to go look up whether the book described her as grey-haired (and it did), because, in my own head, she was already so thoroughly Julianne Moore, I’d been assuming it was red.”
