New 'Hunger Games' Clip: Watch a Sneak Peek of Lenny Kravitz as Cinna
by Andy NeuenschwanderNow that we're getting down to the last few weeks before the release of "The Hunger Games," Lionsgate is starting to be a little more generous with its footage. A few days ago we saw Katniss firing at the Gamemakers, and now we get our first look at Cinna.
The casting of Lenny Kravitz as Cinna was one of the more controversial decisions for the film, the other being the choice of Woody Harrelson as Haymitch. With Harrelson, it's more about appearance; with Kravitz, it's more about the fact that he's the guy that sang "American Woman," and not so much a big name in the acting community.
But like it or not, "Hunger Games" fans will have to deal with watching Kravitz in the role of Katniss and Peeta's kind-hearted stylist, who helps the two "make an impression." In the clip, we see Katniss meet Cinna for the first time right after she arrives at the Capitol and is quickly prepped by her team of beauticians.
Check out the clip of Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) meeting Cinna (Lenny Kravitz) below. What do you think of the casting decision?
