Katniss Makes a Hard Choice in New 'Mockingjay' TV Spot
In exactly one month The Hunger Games begins the march to finality with Mockingjay, and it's a story so big Lionsgate had to split it in two. Actually, it's not that big but the money these movies make is huge so they had to find any way to extend the blockbuster franchise's lifespan. And part of that is an extensive, multi-faceted marketing campaign, which includes revealing brand new footage in the latest TV spot. Here's the official synopsis:
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. Under the leadership of President Coin (Julianne Moore) and the advice of her trusted friends, Katniss spreads her wings as she fights to save Peeta (Josh Hutcherson) and a nation moved by her courage. The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1 is directed by Francis Lawrence from a screenplay by Danny Strong and Peter Craig and produced by Nina Jacobson’s Color Force in tandem with producer Jon Kilik. The novel on which the film is based is the third in a trilogy written by Suzanne Collins that has over 65 million copies in print in the U.S. alone.
The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 opens November 21st.
