Josh Hutcherson doesn't mind getting a little dirty from time to time.

The Catching Fire star had some fun in the mud for a photo shoot with celeb photographer Tyler Shield, which is featured in his book The Dirty Side of Glamour (how fitting, right?).

The snapshots show Hutcherson looking kinda filthy—but pretty hot—along with one close-up of his face as he seriously looks into the camera with his dirty hands on each side of his head (probably wondering how the heck he's going to clean up without making another mess).

Oh, and he even takes off his shirt and gets sexy for some photos. Hey now!

When he's not getting seductive in front of the camera, Hutcherson is making dreams come true.

The 21-year-old actor surprised cancer patient Caitlin Stewart of Albuquerque, N.M., on Good Morning America, to fulfill her Make-A-Wish request. Caitlin, 14, was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, an aggressive form of bone cancer. She underwent chemotherapy to fight the cancer, suffering nausea and losing her hair in the process. She couldn't walk for months after she underwent surgery to replace her knee.

And through it all, the only thing that helped her get by was a life-size cutout of her favorite actor, Josh Hutcherson, so GMA knew what they had to do.

Stewart thought her family won a behind-the-scenes tour of the show through a sweepstakes and flew to New York. What she didn't know was that Hutcherson was there (with gifts!) waiting to meet her.

"Is there a Caitlin in here," Hutcherson asked the crowd. "Oh my God," a shocked Caitlin responded.

Hutcherson invited her entire family to see Catching Fire days before it hit theaters, and also gave her a movie poster signed by the entire cast. Oh, and one other thing...

"There is a cardboard cutout of myself," Hutcherson told her. "I heard you had one, so I got you an updated one."

So sweet.
