Check out the movie trailer for The Hunger Games, starring Jennifer Lawrence!
Gary Ross' Hunger Games adaptation gets its trailer premiere, courtesy of Yahoo Movies. The very-eagerly-anticipated Lionsgate release opens on March 23rd.
Ross adapts the script alongside Suzanne Collins and Billy Ray, based on the novel "The Hunger Games" by Suzanne Collins.
Every year in the ruins of what was once North America, the nation of Panem forces each of its twelve districts to send a teenage boy and girl to compete in the Hunger Games. Part twisted entertainment, part government intimidation tactic, the Hunger Games are a nationally televised event in which “Tributes” must fight with one another until one survivor remains.
Pitted against highly-trained Tributes who have prepared for these Games their entire lives, Katniss is forced to rely upon her sharp instincts as well as the mentorship of drunken former victor Haymitch Abernathy. If she’s ever to return home to District 12, Katniss must make impossible choices in the arena that weigh survival against humanity and life against love.
The cast of The Hunger Games includes Jennifer Lawrence (Katniss Everdeen), Liam Hemsworth (Gale Hawthorne), Elizabeth Banks (Effie Trinket), Josh Hutcherson (Peeta Mellark), Willow Shields (Primrose Everdeen), Woody Harrelson (Haymitch Abernathy), Stanley Tucci (Caesar), Donald Sutherland (President Snow), Jacqueline Emerson (Foxface), Paula Malcomson (Mrs. Everdeen), Isabelle Fuhrmann (Clove), Alexander Ludwig (Cato), Doyo Okenikiyi (Thresh), Amandla Stenberg (Rue), Wes Bentley (Seneca Crane)
