The Hunger Games Director Gary Ross Still In Negotiations For The Sequel
published : 2012 - 04 - 04 11 : 47 : 35
During the promotional period for The Hunger Games everyone involved made sure to note how different the franchise was from Twilight .
While it may have seemed like a silly thing to do given Twilight's success , but the truth is that comparisons were making male audiences a bit shaky about the film , as that demographic didn't want to spend two and a half hours watching a tween romance ( and Hunger Games is definitely not that ) .
The film obviously wasn't hurt by this strategy , as it went on to shatter records and become the third highest grossing opening weekend title of all time .
But while the story of The Hunger Games may have no comparison to Twilight , it turns out that action behind the scenes may duplicate it .
While the first movie was a huge success , <m> THR </m> is saying that director Gary Ross is still in negotiations to direct the sequel , Catching Fire .
The stars of the film - the ones that survived , anyway - are already contractually obligated to appear in the second movie , but things haven't been going to great on the filmmaker side .
The trade says that Ross' negotiations with LionsGate the first time around weren't so hot either , an inside source calling it "a terrible experience , " as the studio doesn't usually pay "seasoned - filmmaker fees" to even seasoned filmmakers like Ross . ?
Because of The Hunger Games' big box office numbers , Ross is expecting a raise for his work on the movie ( he was given $3 million upfront and 5% on the backend with his first deal ) but it's unclear if the studio will give it to him .
Much like the Twilight franchise , or even Harry Potter , it's entirely possible that LionsGate will choose not to pay Ross and instead go with another filmmaker who is demanding less money .
A script has already been written for Catching Fire , from Simon Beaufoy , but Ross has not yet had the chance to revise it .
The one big card that Ross has in his back pocket is that The Hunger Games was better received than any of the Twilight films , which could convince the brass to try and keep some consistency .
Whether it will play in his favor is still an unknown at this point .
So what do you think ?
Should Ross be brought back for the next movie or should they go with someone else's vision ?

Whether it will play in his favor is still an unknown at this point .
So what do you think ?
Should Ross be brought back for the next movie or should they go with someone else's vision ?

The Hunger Games Director Gary Ross Still In Negotiations For The Sequel
published : 2012 - 04 - 04 11 : 47 : 35
During the promotional period for The Hunger Games everyone involved made sure to note how different the franchise was from Twilight .
While it may have seemed like a silly thing to do given Twilight's success , but the truth is that comparisons were making male audiences a bit shaky about the film , as that demographic didn't want to spend two and a half hours watching a tween romance ( and Hunger Games is definitely not that ) .
The film obviously wasn't hurt by this strategy , as it went on to shatter records and become the third highest grossing opening weekend title of all time .
But while the story of The Hunger Games may have no comparison to Twilight , it turns out that action behind the scenes may duplicate it .
While the first movie was a huge success , THR is saying that director Gary Ross is still in <m> negotiations </m> to direct the sequel , Catching Fire .
The stars of the film - the ones that survived , anyway - are already contractually obligated to appear in the second movie , but things haven't been going to great on the filmmaker side .
The trade says that Ross' negotiations with LionsGate the first time around weren't so hot either , an inside source calling it "a terrible experience , " as the studio doesn't usually pay "seasoned - filmmaker fees" to even seasoned filmmakers like Ross . ?
Because of The Hunger Games' big box office numbers , Ross is expecting a raise for his work on the movie ( he was given $3 million upfront and 5% on the backend with his first deal ) but it's unclear if the studio will give it to him .
Much like the Twilight franchise , or even Harry Potter , it's entirely possible that LionsGate will choose not to pay Ross and instead go with another filmmaker who is demanding less money .

Gary Ross has not departed "The Hunger Games . "
According to <m> THR </m> , Ross will resume negotiating with Lionsgate about returning for the "Games" sequel "Catching Fire" at some point on Monday .
It has been quite a three days for Ross .
On Friday , Indiewire's blog The Playlist exclusively reported that the director had stepped away from negotiations with Lionsgate , not because of any monetary strife , but because Ross wanted to do something different for his next film .
That was countered by Deadline . com's Nikki Finke and Mike Fleming , who wrote on Saturday that Ross hadn't stepped away , and that Lionsgate wanted him to return but for a reasonable price .
Ross was reportedly paid $3 million to write and direct "The Hunger Games . "
He'll also earn five percent of the backend grosses , a significant number since "Games" has already accumulated $459 million around the globe .
Per THR , the negotiations between the two parties are "delicate , " but a deal could get done soon .
After all , "Catching Fire" begins shooting in August with a script from Oscar winner Simon Beaufoy ( "Slumdog Millionaire" ) . |

Gary Ross has not departed "The Hunger Games . "

It has been quite a three days for Ross .
On Friday , Indiewire's blog The Playlist exclusively reported that the director had stepped away from negotiations with Lionsgate , not because of any monetary strife , but because Ross wanted to do something different for his next film .
That was countered by Deadline . com's Nikki Finke and Mike Fleming , who wrote on Saturday that Ross hadn't stepped away , and that Lionsgate wanted him to return but for a reasonable price .
Ross was reportedly paid $3 million to write and direct "The Hunger Games . "
He'll also earn five percent of the backend grosses , a significant number since "Games" has already accumulated $459 million around the globe .
Per THR , the negotiations between the two parties are "delicate , " but a deal could get done soon .

Gary Ross back in talks to direct 'The Hunger Games' sequel 'Catching Fire'
April 9 , 2012
Despite reports last week that said Gary Ross would definitely not be returning to direct The Hunger Games sequel , Catching Fire , it seems he will be back at the negotiating table with <m> Lionsgate </m> this week .
The Hollywood Reporter says Ross is set to meet with Lionsgate officials on Monday to resume negotiations .
According to THR , two major sticking points are salary ( Ross apparently wants a raise ) and schedule , with The Hunger Games set to begin filming in August .
That's in part to accomodate Jennifer Lawrence's January start date for filming the X - Men : First Class sequel , a project that legally and contractually holds priority for the actress over Catching Fire .
Lionsgate is also under pressure to meet a previously announced November 2013 release date for Catching Fire .
The majority of fans were outspoken last week in their disappointment that Ross would not return for Catching Fire .
Some launched the "Gary Ross Is Boss" campaign to show support , a petition has been circulating Twitter , and it will be the top discussion subject on Monday night's episode of the HG Fireside Chat podcast .
What do you think about Ross returning ( or possibly not ) for Catching Fire ?

Gary Ross in negotiations to direct ‘ Hunger Games ’ sequel ‘ Catching Fire ’
Now that ‘ The Hunger Games ’ is a monster hit Lionsgate are getting ready for the sequel ‘ Catching Fire ’ .
The three leads Jennifer Lawrence , Josh Hutcherson , and Liam Hemsworth are already signed on to appear in the sequel and , no doubt , the third film ‘ Mockingjay ’ as well .
The biggest player who doesn ’ t have a deal in place is director Gary Ross and <m> The Hollywood Reporter </m> and Collider are reporting that he is in negotiations with Lionsgate to return .
Hit the jump for more details and how ‘ Catching Fire ’ could face a huge delay .
Allegedly , Ross was paid $3 million to direct ‘ The Hunger Games ’ plus five per cent on the back end .
With no deal in place for Ross to direct future films in the series , he is in a good position to ask for more money .
There is no doubt that Ross was instrumental in making ‘ The Hunger Games ’ a huge success .
It was his direction that many critics applauded and brought the film down to earth , as opposed to the bloated spectacle it could have become in the wrong hands .
Lionsgate can ’ t hide that they don ’ t have the money , but they have to spend it wisely to ensure the quality of the franchise continues and Ross could get a good deal out of it .
Of course , if Ross wants too much money Lionsgate could easily give him the flick and hire a new director similar to the ‘ Harry Potter ’ and ‘ Twilight ’ films .
Considering Lionsgate recently absorbed Summit and their executives ( masters of the ‘ Twilight ’ films ) into team Lionsgate ; a change in director could be likely .
Another tough challenge facing Lionsgate with the production of ‘ Catching Fire ’ is the possibility of delays due to the schedule of Lawrence .
‘ Catching Fire ’ has a release date of 22 November 2013 with production starting later in the year .
Lawrence is set to star in the sequel to ‘ X - Men : First Class ’ that could go into production soon if Fox decide to exercise Lawrence ’ s option to do the sequel .
The ‘ X - Men : First Class ’ sequel already has a director with Matthew Vaughn returning and Fox might rush it into production to capitalise on Lawrence ’ s star power . |

Gary Ross in <m> negotiations </m> to direct ‘ Hunger Games ’ sequel ‘ Catching Fire ’
Now that ‘ The Hunger Games ’ is a monster hit Lionsgate are getting ready for the sequel ‘ Catching Fire ’ .
The three leads Jennifer Lawrence , Josh Hutcherson , and Liam Hemsworth are already signed on to appear in the sequel and , no doubt , the third film ‘ Mockingjay ’ as well .
The biggest player who doesn ’ t have a deal in place is director Gary Ross and The Hollywood Reporter and Collider are reporting that he is in negotiations with Lionsgate to return .
Hit the jump for more details and how ‘ Catching Fire ’ could face a huge delay .
Allegedly , Ross was paid $3 million to direct ‘ The Hunger Games ’ plus five per cent on the back end .
With no deal in place for Ross to direct future films in the series , he is in a good position to ask for more money .
There is no doubt that Ross was instrumental in making ‘ The Hunger Games ’ a huge success .
It was his direction that many critics applauded and brought the film down to earth , as opposed to the bloated spectacle it could have become in the wrong hands .
Lionsgate can ’ t hide that they don ’ t have the money , but they have to spend it wisely to ensure the quality of the franchise continues and Ross could get a good deal out of it .
Of course , if Ross wants too much money Lionsgate could easily give him the flick and hire a new director similar to the ‘ Harry Potter ’ and ‘ Twilight ’ films .
Considering Lionsgate recently absorbed Summit and their executives ( masters of the ‘ Twilight ’ films ) into team Lionsgate ; a change in director could be likely .

<m> GARY ROSS </m> REMAINS IN NEGOTIATIONS TO DIRECT 'THE HUNGER GAMES' SEQUEL
Wednesday , 04 April 2012 10 : 30
After opening to the third - biggest domestic debut weekend of all time , legitimate pop culture phenomenon The Hunger Games has grossed $368 . 0 million globally .
It's done so in under two weeks of theatrical release .
So with by far the biggest hit in its history , Lionsgate is naturally keen to continue the series with Catching Fire , the already announced adaptation of Suzanne Collins's novel .
But apparently it's not a guarantee that Gary Ross , who co - wrote and directed The Hunger Games , will be back for another round .
Lionsgate has long been open about its intent to turn Collins's bestselling young adult novels into a franchise , one that would spin four movies out of the literary trilogy .
Last year , the studio staked out a November 22 , 2013 release date for Catching Fire and pursued Oscar winning Slumdog Millionaire screenwriter Simon Beaufoy to pen the script .
In January , word emerged that Beaufoy was indeed at work on Catching Fire , and at the time , word was that he was doing so under Ross's supervision , with the director set to return .
Since then , it's been generally accepted that Ross would take another trip to Panem , particularly once The Hunger Games received an overwhelmingly positive critical response and , you know , made dump trucks of money .
Ross has by no means been set to direct , however .
According to The Hollywood Reporter , he has yet to formally sign on , and negotiations might just be proceeding with some difficulty , if the process on The Hunger Games is any indicator .
The reports cites an anonymous source familiar with Ross's negotiations last time , who cites it as , "a terrible experience . "
Lionsgate , unaccustomed to dealing with directors as established as the four time Oscar nominee and Pleasantville and Seabiscuit director , reportedly played some hardball with Ross , who ended up being paid $3 million .
That relatively low figure was no doubt helped by the 5% of the film's backend profits .
Having delivered a critically acclaimed , zeitgeist - tapping event movie , Ross is doubtless expecting a bigger figure for Catching Fire , but will Lionsgate pay it ?
Probably .
But maybe not .
Lionsgate recently bought Summit Entertainment , the distributor behind the Twilight franchise , meaning that the Lionsgate film division is now under the auspices of Summit's Patrick Wachsberger and Rob Friedman .
The revolving door of directors on the Twilight series has some fans worried that a similar policy might be carried out with The Hunger Games sequels .
Negotiations with Ross didn't actually begin until roughly three weeks before the first film's release , at which point it was obvious that the film would be successful , giving no small amount of leverage to the director , who co - wrote the screenplay with Collins and Billy Ray .
While Ross wasn't signed on to multiple films , stars Jennifer Lawrence , Josh Hutcherson , and Liam Hemsworth are all on board for the duration of the series .
But that's not say there's no potential issues there either .
The unanimously - praised Lawrence is also contractually obligated to reprise her role as Mystique in a sequel to last year's X - Men : First Class .
Her commitment there apparently supersedes her Hunger Games contract , meaning that if Fox goes ahead with another X - Men at an inconvenient moment , it could complicate the Catching Fire schedule .
Of course , all of this could be conjecture or , at the very least , over - analysis .
Let's not get hysterical just yet , folks . |

GARY ROSS <m> REMAINS </m> IN NEGOTIATIONS TO DIRECT 'THE HUNGER GAMES' SEQUEL
Wednesday , 04 April 2012 10 : 30
After opening to the third - biggest domestic debut weekend of all time , legitimate pop culture phenomenon The Hunger Games has grossed $368 . 0 million globally .
It's done so in under two weeks of theatrical release .
So with by far the biggest hit in its history , Lionsgate is naturally keen to continue the series with Catching Fire , the already announced adaptation of Suzanne Collins's novel .
But apparently it's not a guarantee that Gary Ross , who co - wrote and directed The Hunger Games , will be back for another round .
Lionsgate has long been open about its intent to turn Collins's bestselling young adult novels into a franchise , one that would spin four movies out of the literary trilogy .
Last year , the studio staked out a November 22 , 2013 release date for Catching Fire and pursued Oscar winning Slumdog Millionaire screenwriter Simon Beaufoy to pen the script .
In January , word emerged that Beaufoy was indeed at work on Catching Fire , and at the time , word was that he was doing so under Ross's supervision , with the director set to return .
Since then , it's been generally accepted that Ross would take another trip to Panem , particularly once The Hunger Games received an overwhelmingly positive critical response and , you know , made dump trucks of money .
Ross has by no means been set to direct , however .
According to The Hollywood Reporter , he has yet to formally sign on , and negotiations might just be proceeding with some difficulty , if the process on The Hunger Games is any indicator .
The reports cites an anonymous source familiar with Ross's negotiations last time , who cites it as , "a terrible experience . "
