“y’all have any idea that this fandom has been making young effie edits with elle fanning for YEARS??? and until months ago this was an impossible dream???” one X post in response to the announcement read.
“Casting director deserves an Oscar alone for what he’s done here,” added another fan, while someone else wrote: “OH MY GOD ITS HAPPENING THE PROPHECY WE MADE IT GUYSSZBDJCJFNDJDJFN.”
“Elle fanning as Effie Trinket was the most accurate and universally accepted casting that has ever happened in recent years,” echoed someone else.
