Hilarious memes erupt as Josh Hutcherson says he would love to play Peeta again

Someone is having a nostalgic moment, and that someone is Josh Hutcherson. Our beloved Peeta Mellark has tossed his name back into the reaping bowl in hopes of being picked again for the wild ride. Hutcherson has expressed his desire to play Peeta Mellark again if the opportunity presents itself.

Hutcherson played Peeta in the first four Hunger Games movies alongside Jennifer Lawrence, Liam Hemsworth, Woody Harrelson, and Elizabeth Banks. His character, Peeta, was a baker who was chosen to participate in the games alongside Katniss (Jennifer's character). Over time, both characters become close and eventually win games.

Talking about his wish to play the character again, Hutcherson said,

"I'm curious to know what happens between when they have their family and where the story ends, just to understand what happened in the world. But I'm down!"

Imagine the baker boy back in his shop, sourdough bread baking in the oven, seeing his children play outside, one about to poke the other's eye out with their bow and arrow. Before he can stop them, he sees Katniss rip the bow from their hands and save the day and their eyes.

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he breathed in something burning in the air, and that was the burnt sourdough bread. He just pulls out the burnt bread and says to himself, "Today the odds were not in my favor."
