Director of Catching Fire, Francis Lawrence, stated of Claflin's performance during filming: "Finnick's an interesting character. At first he feels like a bit of a flirt and there's a little bit of sexual tension, but really you kind of fall in love with the guy and you see that there's a real deep emotional side to him. It's one of the reasons I really hired him in the first place was that it's where his character goes in the next couple of stories and I just think he did a fantastic job."[13] The film was released in November 2013 to general acclaim and Claflin's portrayal of Finnick received positive reviews.

Claflin is currently filming Me Before You, the film adaption to the novel of the same name where he is set to play William Traynor and the sequel of Snow White and the Huntsman, The Huntsman, where he reprises his role as William, Snow White's childhood friend.
