Just yesterday we told you that Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth are back on, and judging by a paparazzi-filled Starbucks run, it seems the new couple are already willing to go public!

My what perfect timing!  While Miley is rehearsing in L.A. for her two-week international tour that kicks off in June, Hemsworth is a frontrunner for a lead role opposite Jennifer Lawrence in Hunger Games.

With Hemsworth proving his acting chops, is it Miley who needs the hunky Aussie to giver her a career boost this time around?

Oh how the tables have turned!

Word is that Liam is thisclose to signing on for the role of Gale, the hunting partner to Jennifer Lawrence's character, Katniss.

It's a good thing Liam plans to accompany Miley on some of her summer tour stops, because we think Liam and Jennifer would make a totally hot real life couple!

Miley and Liam met on the set of The Last Song, so we know he isn't opposed to an on-the-set romance!

And while Miley just wrapped LOL and So Undercover, it's Liam who has the projects in the works, with Arabian Nights and, hopefully, Hunger Games.

Hey, Liam, Miley may be hungry for another role soon, maybe you could throw your gal-pal a bone?
