@mcleve02 It would make more sense if they waited for say most of the cast to be picked, considering a lot of these are small/unknown names, and then do one big article, but they'll be hyping the sh*t out of this movie and getting as much mileage from it as they can.

@mcleve02 Dude, you have to remember, besides Katniss and Peeta, they have to hire 22 new people to fill out the other districts. That's a lot of casting.
