A former career tribute from District 2, Enobaria is known for the particularly brutal, disturbing way in which she came to win The Hunger Games.

Enorboria is a former career tribute from District 2 and is considered brutal – especially for the way she won The Hunger Games she was in. We’d love to know what you think. Do you see Meta as Enorboria. I think she’ll be amazing.

OMG! THIS is NOT what I saw as Enobaria. I saw this person as big, stocky, and willing to gold cap all her teeth into points.
They are playing to the males in the audience for this one. She is too young and too pretty.
IMO!
OMG I know right. Did not expect her to be a skinny pretty girl. UGHHH not happy with the casting at all!!!
I agree she is very pretty, but I think they could do a lot to make her less so. As far as age, she’s pretty much spot on, Enobaria is only 30 and Meta is 32 and in current pictures she does look older than the picture above.
OMG I know right. Did not expect her to be a skinny pretty girl. UGHHH not happy with this cast choice at all!!!
I actually DID picture Enobaria as pretty (as well as deadly). This casting is pretty must spot-on, IMHO.
“Much” (not “must”)
i really like the casting. I kinda did imagine her as a pretty bitch type
Yeah I imagined Clove like your description. As long as she can act I’m fine with this casting choice.
i picture her in her Mid30z …with a muscular body and some what pretty ….tall and blonde
Doubt they’d she will let them mess with her teeth
I’m guessing they would get a prosthetic mouthpiece for her if they have Enobaria’s pointed teeth in the movie at all.
I mean the people who choose the cast are experienced people. They know what they are doing. The person they choose must be the correct kind of actor and look the part. It can’t all be about their looks. I don’t think we can critic until we see the movie.
I wasn’t criticizing. I was saying that in my opinion and when I visualized, this wasn’t what I saw.
Nothing more.
i need finnick
do u go to edison middle school? i think i know u?
she is perfect!
To all the Haters. You know they can always make her look not pretty for the movie. Its called Makeup. Ever heard of it? They use it in movies and im pretty sure you use it too! The can always make her not skinny but putting foam or something in her costume. It doesn’t really matter if shes skinny they can even make her eat more. It doesnt really matter Really they picked her for the part and I think she will do a GREAT job. Unlike all you haters thinking she looks terrible, wont do the part, and is too old or to skinny to prretty or anything else you come up with. All I can say is when she becomes the favorite from many people in the movie and even maybe your favorite for the part you will be mad at yourself for hating.
Your comments are so NEGATIVE that I would have to classify YOU as the HATER here.
The rest of us are expressing our opinions! Back off!
Your comments are negative KJ. Stfu -.-
You need to calm down buddy. Your comments are also negative. This person was also expressing their opinion. Also, correct me if I am wrong, a hater is someone who is hating on a particular “subject”. I don’t see Angelina hating on anything at all.
i agree but u are kindof negative. i think were all haters. u hate the haters and the haters hate who tyhey picked. big whoop.
She should be perfect! I think she’s got some experience with killing from all of the CSI and murder type shows and she’s gonna look good while she’s doin’ it!
ROFLOL!!! That was a good one! Certainly broke me up! LUV IT!
She’ll do great. Quit complaining and be happy that we’re getting Catching Fire, and that production (filming?) begins soon. You know what that means? Leaked behind the scenes pictures. (=
How’d my email get an extra letter and get my picture changed? Oh well, that ^ is still me!
MyHungerGames comments aren’t working for me as of late. Not what people post, but that for a while my comments haven’t been added. I figured out just now that it was due to an extra letter that was put in for Email. -_- Ignore my comment and accept this as my comment instead, please:
I’m glad Meta’s got the part. They can put caps over her teeth—she doesn’t need to have “naturally” sharpened teeth. And production is soon. It won’t be long before we have our first behind the scenes photos, teaser trailer, poster, and more. Catching Fire was my favorite out of the three, so of course I want it done well, and I think Francis Lawrence will actually do much better than Gary Ross.
Why?
Because, hopefully, Lawrence isn’t a fan of the spinning/shaky cam. I know I wasn’t, and it made the action scenes in The Hunger Games a task to see and understand. But if only they’d tell us who Finnick is. If it *is* Sam Claflin, then good for him. No, he wasn’t what I imagined—but if I want to fully enjoy the movie for what it’s worth, I must accept its flaws.
You are awesome!
Well she definitely has the face. As for the acting ability, I don’t watch any of her shows so I can’t judge, but so far, I’m fully satisfied about Philip Seymour Hoffman as Plutarch, Jena Malone as Johanna and Lynn Cohen as Mags, so I don’t have a reason to believe that the casting director will blow things up at one point.
The picture provided of her is about 5 years old. Here is a much more recent picture of her:

Personally, I think she looks absolutely perfect. Almost exactly how I pictured Enobaria.
OMG! I know they can put make up on her and stuff but she did not look at all like my mental Enobaria, but in that picture you linked she ab-so-lutley does! I’m happy with the casting decisions again
I haven’t seen anything she is in, so I have nothing to say about her acting, but Meta definitely looks the part. Hopefully we’ll hear who will be cast as Beetee or Finnick next!
Anyone else think she would have also made a good Johanna?
Me.
Cool.
Nothing like I pictured, but I like it.
I hope she can act.
I love this actually.
I think she’ll be great too
And @HGFan , you were right, that picture is older. Her more recent photos make her look a bit older than that picture, and I think she’ll do great like all the other castings I’ve seen listed.
I think that Francis Lawrence, Suzanne Collins, and all the other people involved in giving out the roles have made perfect decisions that we can trust will be promising.
This is exactly how I pictured Enobaria. I actually think I like her better when she was younger than now. I just wish people would stop complaining about this. She has that look too that makes you think if you mess with her you will regret. Congrats to her and I can’t wait to see her in the movie.
Well. . . She isn’t who I pictured, but that doesn’t really matter. If they picked her then I’m sure she’ll do a great job. Wonder how she’ll look with fangs for teeth.
not to be racial but i saw enobaria as a white, 6 foot, mid twenties evil woman. like those popular girls that arer mean. like them but oldar.
i wonder who finnick would be. not to sound gay but i want zac efron to play finnick.
