Gary Ross är snart officiell Hunger Games regissör!

Det är nästan säkert att Gary Ross ska regissera Hunger Games filmen! Så sjukt roligt att saker är på gång!!!

Technically, it's not official yet -- but Gary Ross is almost a done deal to direct The Hunger Games movie adaptation.

According to Variety, Ross is in final talks with Lionsgate to help the adaptation of Suzanne Collins' best-selling novel. Ross appeared this week at the American Film Market (AMF) conference on behalf of Lionsgate to help promote the upcoming Hunger Games project.

Ross has been the rumored front-runner for the job for several weeks now. Collins herself even called him "the one" when asked about a director for The Hunger Games.

At last word, producers were hoping to begin production on The Hunger Games movie in early 2011 -- with a theatrical release in 2012. Collins wrote the screenplay, which was later polished by veteran screenwriter Billy Ray.
