Katniss and Boggs Prepare for War in Image from 'The Hunger Games: Mockingjay part 2'


Out of all of Suzanne Collins' The Hunger Games novels, Mockingjay is the one that would best translate into a war movie. Split, unnecessarily in my opinion, into two separate movies, the first one was probably the least action-heavy of the franchise, but that was to save the bulk of Katniss' (Jennifer Lawrence) fight against the Capitol for the finale. Lionsgate offers up a small glimpse of her rebellion in a new image that features Gale (Liam Hemsworth) and Boggs (Mahershala Ali) accompanying Katniss into battle.

Here is the official synopsis:

With the nation of Panem in a full scale war, 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.

Directed by Francis Lawrence, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2 opens November 20th.
