Francis Lawrence, Catching Fire Director, talks about our dear Sam with MTV at San Diego Comic Con.
In particular, Lawrence says he was pleased by Sam Claflin’s performance as fan favorite character Finnick Odair, the heartthrob tribute who returns to the Hunger Games in the Quarter Quell. “I am really happy with Sam, Finnick’s an interesting character. At first he feels like a bit of a flirt and there’s a little bit of sexual tension, but really you kind of fall in love with the guy and you see that there’s a real deep emotional side to him,” he Lawrence said. “It’s one of the reasons I really hired him in the first place was that it’s where his character goes in the next couple of stories and I just think he did a fantastic job, he’s so charimastic”.
Then they talk about Finnick’s costume in the parade. And Francis Lawrence says the costume is “risqué” and “there’s some skin”.
