Peter Dinklage Joins Cast of 'Hunger Games' Prequel Movie

Peter Dinklage is the latest star to join the cast of The Hunger Games prequel film, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.

He’ll be portraying the role of Casca Highbottom in the film that stars Rachel Zegler as tribute Lucy Gray Baird and Tom Blyth as young Coriolanus Snow, Variety reports.

Fans are pointing out a connection between Peter and Rachel that you may remember from a few months ago. It caused some controversy at the time.

A few months ago, Peter put Disney on blast for their live action Snow White film, which stars Rachel as Snow White.

“Literally no offense to anyone, but I was a little taken aback when they were very proud to cast a Latina actress as Snow White.

`But you’re still telling the story of ‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.’ Take a step back and look at what you’re doing there. It makes no sense to me,” Peter said back in January
