New pictures from Gary Ross’ The Hunger Games

Last Updated on July 23, 2021

Early this morning, Jared showed you the cover of the upcoming issue of Entertainment Weekly, which features the first look at Liam Hemsworth and Josh Hutcherson as Gale and Peeta in THE HUNGER GAMES. We’ve now received a look inside the issue, which reveals more new pictures from the film. Check them out below.

The film is written and directed Gary Ross (SEABISCUIT), as based on the novel by Suzanne Collins. The large cast includes Jennifer Lawrence, Elizabeth Banks (below), Stanley Tucci, Woody Harrelson, Wes Bentley and Donald Sutherland. It will hit theaters on March 23, 2012 via Lionsgate.

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.
