“We came close to doing something in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay,” said Snipes. “There was some conversation about that, and he tried to put in a good word. And some people had reached out to me. It didn’t come to me because they went a different direction ultimately. But that was close.”
The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 is scheduled to be released in movie theaters on November 21, 2014.
