Katniss Everdeen is #7 on Time's Most Influential Fictional Characters List of 2014

Katniss Everdeen came it at #7 on Time's annual list of the year's most influential fictional characters, as Time puts it, a "ranking of the onscreen figures that made the biggest impact on the news and our lives this year, for better and sometimes for worse." 

7. Katniss Everdeen

The Hunger Games heroine (played by Jennifer Lawrence) has already secured her status as a feminist role model and a box-office powerhouse. But Katniss is more than a movie icon now: Her three-fingered salute, used in Mockingjay as a signal of rebellion against the Capitol, has become a rallying symbol among pro-democracy protesters in Thailand and Hong Kong.
