THE HUNGER GAMES Gets a New 'Movie Event' TV Spot
Lionsgate has released a great new TV spot for The Hunger Games, and it's got a bit more new footage for fans to check out. They're still holding back on the intense action sequences, but I'm actually more excited about the movie because of that. It's kind of fun not knowing how they will turn out.
Here's the synopsis:
Every year in the ruins of what was once North America, the evil Capitol of the nation of Panem forces each of its twelve districts to send a teenage boy and girl to compete in the Hunger Games. A twisted punishment for a past uprising and an ongoing 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 movie is set to be released on March 23rd, 2012! It's so close I we can taste it! Watch the new spot and hit us up with your thoughts! Do you wish the trailers had shown more of the action from the film?
The movie has a wonderful large cast of actors that includes Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth, Woody Harrelson, Elizabeth Banks, Stanley Tucci, Donald Sutherland, Wes Bentley, Toby Jones, Amandla Stenberg, Alexander Ludwig, Isabelle Fuhrman, Jacqueline Emerson, Paula Malcomson, Dayo Okeniyi, Jack Quaid, Leven Rambin, Willow Shields, and Lenny Kravitz.
