The film is from a best selling novel that has TONS of fans, but don’t let us tell you, here is the complete article that The Hollywood Reporter was able to land;

Lenny Kravitz has joined the cast of The Hunger Games in a role that fans of Suzanne Collins’ best-selling trilogy have been anxious to see filled.

“When I saw Lenny’s work in Precious, I was just knocked out,” director Gary Ross said. “It was quiet and strong and understated and open-hearted: all qualities which define this character.”
