Here's where it really starts to kick off. Those familiar with the books will be aware that Mockingjay is something of a different beast to the other two Hunger Games novels. It's been split into two instalments for the Jennifer Lawrence-starring movie franchise, and a new teaser for The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 has just arrived online to give us a sense of how it's going to play out.
Lovely to see Philip Seymour Hoffman one more time there.
Directed by Francis Lawrence and adapted by Danny Strong from Suzanne Collins' third novel, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Parts** 1** & 2 make up the third and fourth instalments of heroine Katniss Everdeen’s journey as she leads the districts of Panem in a rebellion against the tyrannical and corrupt Capitol. As the war that will determine the fate of Panem escalates, Katniss must decide for herself whom she can trust and what needs to be done, with everything she cares for in the balance.
With Lawrence back as Katniss and surrounded by fellow franchise veterans Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth, Sam Claflin and Woody Harrelson plus franchise newcomers Julianne Moore, Lily Rabe, Natalie Dormer and Robert Knepper, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1 flies into cinemas on November 21, followed by Part 2 on November 20, 2015.
