As we all now ‘The Hunger Games: Catching Fire‘ is starting its production. And much like in the first movie we all know, whether or not we accept it, that things must get cut out for the sake of time. SPOILER ALERT: In case you haven’t read ‘Catching Fire’, there will be some mild spoilers below, so beware!

Bonnie Cut from The Hunger Games: Catching Fire

According to a source in touch with The Hob fan site, the rumor is that Bonnie, one of the characters Katniss encounters in the woods outside of District 12, will be sacrificed from the film. If you don’t remember, Twill and Bonnie are two runaways that tell Katniss more of the uprisings in other districts, and most importantly, about the perseverance of District 13. There is no word on whether Twill will make an appearance or not.

This is of course just a rumor, and I doubt we will hear a definite answer on the issue until at least the end of production, so remember to take this news with a grain of salt. However, if it is true, the absence of both Bonnie and Madge in the movies makes me wonder how the idea of District 13 will be brought into the story.

Is there another way you think Katniss will be introduced to District 13 and the Rebellion in the movies? Tell us in the comments below!

    Boonie and Twill will both be gone, or just Bonnie?

  2. Rue fan says:

    BONNIE HAS TO BE IN THE MOVIE!!!!! It wouldn’t be Bonnie and Twill at that point! Take out Bonnie, you take out Twill, you take out a great part of the movie!

  3. Micah says:

    Another reason why Catching Fire should have been the book split into two movies.

  4. Kaitlyn says:

    I think Bonnie should still be cast but the scene with Bonnie and twill can be shortened. Just so we can hear about district 13

  6. RebeccaB. says:

    Why have Twill and not Bonnie? Why can’t they cast both? They’re both quite important—since that’s when Katniss first hears about the possibility of District 13′s secret plotting to overthrow the Capitol.

  7. Amy says:

    I’m quite sure, ages ago, they both won’t make it into the movie. There’s no spot for them in the casting page.

  8. gia says:

    Its not as important. I’m fine with it. I’m sure they will come up with a good way to introduce 13.

  9. Marissa says:

    Maybe she could hear all the news in the governor’s building, but I don’t know how she’ll get in now that Madge isn’t there..but I’m thinking it’s possible for that to be the mystery? But I’m sure they’ll think of something creative :) I mean, we all saw THG so we know they have some great creative juices to work with!

  10. Veronica Mars says:

    I didn’t like that part of the book anyways… To be honest.

  11. Autumn says:

    They prob want a lead up. She might see the screen of another rebellion plus president snow talk to her. Tributes join hands, Johanna and her rebellion comment and then her shooting he force field and district 12 demolition could give a hint so that everyone starts thinking but cant be sure till the next movie?

  12. Catnip says:

    I’m not suprised. The movie could still have a scene without them

  13. charisma says:

    they are not needed, katniss doesant need suspicions about 13 she will find out its real and alive soon enough.

  14. Hunger Games, the movie sucked compared to the book says:

    WHATS THE POINT OF EVEN HAVING A REBELLION???????

  15. Nick says:

    Well, if they took out Bonnie and Twill how would they show Katniss knowing about D13? And also, I think there was the importance of the part where Katniss saw the uprising on Madge’s dad’s tv. And she tells Gale and (I havent read them in a while) and I believe they want to leave D12.

    And if they dont have Madge then Katniss wont see the tv.

    If they dont have Bonnie or Twill, Katniss wont know there might be D13.

    But also as “Charisma” says that they could do that and Katniss has no suspicions that there is a D13 and she doesnt find out till the end of the 2nd movie.

    • Nick says:

      And there are rumors the the “mystery character” which I think is either Madge, Annie, or Coin….So they will possibly bring Madge in. Because I think she was really important in the second book because she is the reason Katniss saw the tv AND because she gives Gale the painkillers and practically saves his life.

  16. Georgia says:

    It is stupid how they are taking out Bonnie and Twill as they were the ones that had a hunch District 13 still existed, they are major parts in this story because without them, non of the tributes would have escaped the arena.
    Another character has to tell Katniss about District 13 and I think it should be Gale, he has always been repulsed by the Capitol and completely hates them so him questioning the existence of District 13 would be perfect.

    • obssesive hungergames fan says:

      Wow, when I read your comment at first I thought it was stupid and starting scrolling up again, but then I thought about it and it was PERFECT!

  17. obssesive hungergames fan says:

    This might be weird but thought I should recommend it anyway~

    When Katniss is outside of District 12, she should find a note the someone sent out shortly after the attack saying that their District is not completly distroyed and that they need help.

  18. WarriorWing says:

    Its a short scene, and you cant just suddenly shove in a whole new concept to the plot line, you need some backstory, somthing at the beggining to start to off…like pieces of the puzzle for people who are watching, to slowly piece together as the story goes. Its only a little bit more money, and you could reuse the scenery from tne Hunger Games…Sorry, I just dont want too many more changes and I’m still annoyed that they didn’t put madge in…Soooooo yah…BRING BOONIE IN THE MOIVIE!!!!! :)
