Lionsgate has released the motion poster for the highly anticipated film,
The Hunger Games!
This Motion Poster really gives you a very first glimpse at how the adaptation of the
Suzanne Collin's bestseller will be brought to life on the big screen! Also, make sure to keep an eye out for it on display at Comic-con this week!
The Hunger Games is directed by
Gary Ross and features an all-star cast including
Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth, Woody Harrelson, Elizabeth Banks, Donald Sutherland and
Lenny Kravitz.
Here's the synopsis for “The Hunger Games”:
Every year in the ruins of what was once North America, the nation of Panem forces each of its twelve districts to send a teenage boy and girl to compete in the Hunger Games. Part twisted entertainment, part 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 Hunger Games” is scheduled to light up theaters on March 23, 2012. [source:
