With The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 1 bringing in a very profitable $752 million worldwide, it's time to say goodbye to this YA franchise with the final chapter. Lionsgate Films began its marketing campaign this week by releasing a new poster of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 2 for the Cannes Film Festival. Known as the "commemorative" print, it features Jennifer Lawrence's Katniss Everdeen dressed in her strappy leather-armored suit and standing behind her sister Primose (Willow Shields).
From the pose, we can see just how much Katniss has changed since the series started in 2012, with Primose looking on a bit worried. Here's the plot according to a press release from Lionsgate:
In the last installment of the "Hunger Games" movie franchise, Katniss confronts President Snow (Donald Sutherland) in the final showdown. Teamed with a group of her closest friends - including Gale (Liam Hemsworth), Finnick (Sam Claflin), and Peeta (Josh Hutcherson) - Katniss goes off on a mission with the unit from District 13 as they risk their lives to stage an assassination attempt on President Snow who has become increasingly obsessed with destroying her. The mortal traps, enemies, and moral choices that await Katniss will challenge her more than any arena she faced in The Hunger Games.
Philip Seymour Hoffman reprises his role as Plutarch Heavensbee, marking his final appearance in a movie. Julianne Moore, Elizabeth Banks, Woody Harrelson, Stanley Tucci and Jena Malone also return to the upcoming film.
Directed by Francis Lawrence, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 2 will be released on November 20, 2015.
