The Hunger Games
Jennifer Lawrence launches the HUNGER GAMES saga with this stylish, action-packed adaption of the beloved books
Based on the best-selling books by Suzanne Collins and starring Academy Award winner Jennifer Lawrence in the role that skyrocketed her to international fame, THE HUNGER GAMES features amazing action, colorful characters played by a cast of pros, and a sizzling love triangle between Katniss (Lawrence), her hometown crush (Liam Hemsworth) and the boy she must kill to survive (Josh Hutcherson).
Every year in the ruins of what was once North America, the 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. Sixteen year old Katniss Everdeen volunteers in her younger sister’s place and must rely upon her sharp instincts when she’s pitted against highly trained Tributes who have prepared their entire lives. 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.
