British Actor Sam Claflin was shocked after bagging a role in 'The Hunger Games

When asked about how he felt when he was offered the part, the actor, who plays the role of Finnick Odair in the second instalment of the series, said he thought he wasn't the right guy for the role after he saw a fellow actor was the right fit for the same, Universal Pictures India reported.

He said that during the audition, he felt very out of shape, as he had stubble, long brown hair and was very pale.

The 27-yaear-old actor said that after seeing a well built kid, who looked like Brad Pitt in 'Thelma and Louise', he thought that he was not going to get that part.

 

The film, which also stars Oscar winner Jennifer Lawrence and Liam Hemsworth, is set to release in India on 29th November.
