Josh Hutcherson Sad To See Gary Ross Go, But Excited To Work With Francis Lawrence

The director shuffle is completed - and Francis Lawrence (no relation to Jennifer) will be the director of "Catching Fire".

Josh Hutcherson weighed in on the shift at the 23rd Annual GLAAD Media Awards in Los Angeles on Saturday.

“I’m going to miss Gary Ross — he was my guy on that movie,” Josh said. “You know, I think he really brought a lot to the movie.”

But he's looking forward to moving forward.

“They’re talking about making a deal with Francis Lawrence — he’s fantastic,” he said. “I think he’s a very talented director.”
