Here is the official Hunger Games poster of Cinna, as played by Lenny Kravitz!

Cinna was Katniss Everdeen’s stylis during the 74th and 75th Hunger Games.  He didn’t come from the Capitol and was different from helper who Katniss though were “a trio of oddly colored birds pecking around [her] feet.”

    the gold eye liner is the only good thing. otherwise, this is the WORST characterisation ive ever seen. he was meant to be pale, skinny, fashionable and gay! Not masculine and tanned with tatts! they might cover many things but they can’t cover his skin colour! Im not being rascist or anything, like i have dark skin too, but im sorry, Cinna does not! Im sorry but I think this is like the worst characterisation the directors could come up with. Ive kinda come around with the other characters but not this one. -.-

    • Corine

      That’s the first thing I thought too, when I heard who was going to play Cinna. But seeing this poster I think it might actually work. ^^  Besides, I don’t think the book ever mentions Cinna being gay. He’s a stylist, so it’s definitely possible, but I never thought of him that way. I think it will really depend on the acting whether this is going to be a good Cinna or not. 

    • Karadactyl97

      totally agree! except i don’t think he’s supposed to be gay but you’re right he should be pale and skinny and fashionable and not dark skinned not racist but still

    • Tristram

      I’m sure that they did this to promote diversity among people, but I totally agree that he doesn’t fit the role.

    • Hungergameskid

      I just finished reading the book for the second time a few hours ago and they never mentioned Cinna to be gay, white, skinny, or have short hair. All they said is that he has gold eyeliner and in the movie he has gold eyeliner. I know I didn’t imagine him to be like this but who cares as long as Suzanne Collins is okay with him and he plays the part right, nothing else matters.

    • Sally

      I think they made cinna black is because if they didnt they would seem racisr because every one else is described with more detail and more people would be made if say cato was black

      • Sally

        Sorry I meant racist not racisr and mad not made

  • PeetaGal

    This is NOT how i picture Cinna at all. what were they thinking i mean he is so masculine this was one of my favorite characters and they ruined him for me. At least they got him wearing eyeliner though. 

  • Comic Girl

    Ok,i go buy the gold eyeliner. :X brb :) )

    we need a tardis NOW people!!!!!!!!!!

  • Haleighroze21

    Cinna was supposed to be (not being racist) white with brown hair, pale, thin and seemingly gay. I love Lenny Kravitz, but he just does not fit my image of Cinna. But we’ll see how he does in the movie :)

  • suzieqa

    frist of all they never sayed he was gay and u could be a fashionable guy and not be gay, u people need to reread your book i just reread them to my mom and it did not say tha tat all, i have about 12 people saying that is not true and i can find more .i was scared that they would forget the gold eyeliner

  • Anonymous

    Yeah…so, what happened to Cinna here?

  • Froofroo125

    need a new cinna QUICK! :P

  • Gabcarrascal

    While I know that he isn’t as described in the book, I actually like this casting. It’s more important to me that they remembered the eyeliner than his race, and I think he is more aesthetically interesting than how he was described in the book. His race isn’t important to his character and as long as an actor can act and pull off the essence of a character, I don’t care what race they are.

  • allie

    you know… I agree i didn’t imagine Cinna like this. I didn’t imagine him to be “pale”, i thought of him being a bit tan, with darker hair, and YES, the EYELINER. ^_^ In the beginning of the book when they introduced him I initially thought he would be gay, but I’ve never liked that so I imagined him to be Stylish, yes, and just an awesome normal dude. But looking at this, its not too bad. I dont have any  problem with him being black .:) It’s a good switch up. :)

  • Nicole

    I think Lenny Kravitz will do an amazing job!!! <3

  • Scky216

    When I read the book, I pictured Alan Cumming or Neil Patrick Harris playing this part. I wanted the character to look like some edgy twisted Wizard of Oz-like person. When they announced Lenny would play Cinna, I was even more excited, because Lenny is all of those things inside!

  • Mr. E

    I am 200% ok with Lenny Kravitz playing Cinna. When I was reading The Hunger Games, I pictured Cinna in a very similar way to the Cinna in the poster. For starters, I love the fact that he doesn’t seem unbearably gay. If Cinna was your average Christian Siriano, I would have been greatly disappointed. Plenty of impossibly stylish men are straight, and they still carry themselves in a masculine, edgy, and enigmatic way. I like to think that Lenny Kravitz can bring those three things to the table, and more. But all in all, March will be here before we know it. So time will tell.

  • Ember

    I can’t wait to see how this one is played out. I mean, this could dive bomb, but if Mr. Kravitz can pull this off, the I’m happy. <3

    Cinna is not how i pictured it,but they did a good job on him, im glad they got the small detials right! the book never said what culture he was,but im glad its not the complete opposite of the  book.

  • Billie

    I just read the books and the only description they give for Cinna’s appearance is that he looks like a normal guy with brown hair and gold eyeliner, so that fits. I saw the trailers and he was amazing. I will admit that I’ve had a massive crush on Lenny Kravitz since I was twelve but still he was great. I don’t like that people assume that Cinna is gay because he is a stylist or that Lenny is too masculine to portray him if he were gay. Those kinds of stereotype really suck!.

  • Darth_Elf

    All I took from most of these posts is that no, none of you are racist. You’re just ethnocentric. Not your fault either. Society and media has trained you to be that way; this movie is not conforming to that. Deal with it. Lenny Kravitz will be brilliant.

  • Stannis Baratheon

    Actually, the golden eyeliner looks much better on a darker skin. I know, I tried it and it’s barely visible on me, I’m very pale.
    Who I imagine as black is Plutarch, I just keep seeing Ving Rhames whenever he’s on.

  • Mindfreak1221

    When I first heard about this casting, I did not think it would work. I always pictured Tom Lennon playing Cinna, but seeing this poster, it may work.
