[UPDATED]Zoe Aggeliki and Mia Wasikowska being considered to play Johanna Mason in 'Catching Fire'

Interesting news! The Playlist is reporting that Mia Wasikowska (Alice in Wonderland, The Kids Are Alright, Jane Eyre) and Zoe Aggeliki (Silena Beauregard in Sea of Monsters) are being considered to play Johanna Mason, Katniss's sort-of-rival, in the film adaptation of Catching Fire. Both casting choices have gone unnoticed by fans, and we really like them! The problem with Zoe being cast, though, is that she's already starring in another big franchise (Percy Jackson), so filming for Catching Fire may conflict with Sea of Monsters, and maybe even a clash between Mockingjay and Titan's Curse.

UPDATE: Mia Wasikowska has denied all rumors that she'd be playing Johanna Mason (sadly), saying that she had made prior commitments to other projects, and that she would be breaching those commitments by working on Catching Fire. Entertainment Weekly is reporting that Jena Malone (Sucker Punch, Pride and Prejudice) is in the running now.

What are your guys' thoughts?
