Maria Howell is set to enter the Arena.

The actress (The Blind Side, The Vampire Diaries) is the latest name to come on board Catching Fire, as multiple outlets report she’s landed the role of Seeder in this wildly anticipated sequel to The Hunger Games.

Seeder is the District 11 Tribute and one of the few former champions who actually gets along with Jennifer Lawrence’s Katniss. Look for her to provide our heroine with key intel regarding the families of Rue and Thresh.
