In less than a month, the saga of Katniss Everdeen will continue on the big screen as The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 rolls into theaters. Jennifer Lawrence reprises her starring role, this time leading a band of rebels in a full-fledged uprising against the tyranny of President Snow (Donald Sutherland), who still holds Peeta (Josh Hutcherson) somewhere in the Capitol. There’s plenty of action-packed footage here, but we suspect the best is yet to come, as the next installment of this saga promises to continue elevating the franchise. Check out the Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 trailer below.
The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 will open on November 21.
The worldwide phenomenon of The Hunger Games continues to set the world on fire with The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1, which finds Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) in District 13 after she literally shatters the games forever.
