The Hunger Games hype machine keeps rolling. This trailer shows off the beautiful Mockingjaw pin that is the trademark of the series. We also get a look at Stanley Tucci with his tall blueish hair. The outfits for Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) will have to be amazing according to the book, so it was nice to get a good look at one of her first outfits as well. It’s a very epic one-minute trailer and has me more excited than ever to see the movie.
The Hunger Games opens in wide release and IMAX on March 23rd.
Yahoo! Movies has the trailer in HD.
Here’s the official synopsis for The Hunger Games:
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.
