NEW Mockingjay Part 2 Trailer Tributing Katniss and Prim’s Sisterhood

Posted on by — Leave a reply

The new trailer and poster for The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2 has been released earlier today and so far the comments on it have been mixed. This is Lionsgate’s final installment for the Hunger Games movie franchise, where we will finally get to see Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) take on the Capitol. In this new trailer we see glimpses in the past of Katniss and Prim’s (Willow Shields) relationship, and just how important that relationship was for this revolution. Many Hunger Games fans can see this trailer as a tribute to how important Prim was to the over arching story, however many others see this as a horrible fan made trailer. Despite the marketing choices that have been made for promoting the film, there is no doubt that the hype for Mockingjay Part 2 has not died.

Check out the trailer and poster below.

Mockingjay Part 2 will be in theaters and IMAX on November 20th.
