21 days to go until the games begin officially for THE HUNGER GAMES and we get sent the films official first clip. It’s no surprise the focal point of this short 40 second clip is the film’s protagonist Katniss Everdeen in the training Centre showing off her archery skills but as you’ll see no one seems to be paying attention but she has her own way to make sure the people who should be watching are watching.

In further The Hunger Games News Suzanne Collins the author responsible for the post apocalypse best selling novel has seen the film and has given her thumbs up approving Gary Ross adaptation of her book. It’s a positive sign when the creator of the books approves your work but most of all the big verdict will be when you the film fan can see the film yourself on March 23rd when the film is released. Over in USA advance ticket sales for the flick have broke the first day advanced sales according to Fandango which may frustrate UK&Irish fans but don’t despair March 9th advance tickets for the film will go on sale here.

Here’s the message from Suzanne Collins on her first viewing of The Hunger Games

“Dear Readers,
I’ve just had the opportunity to see the finished film of The Hunger Games. I’m really happy with how it turned out. I feel like the book and the film are individual yet complementary pieces that enhance one another. The film opens up the world beyond Katniss’ point of view, allowing the audience access to the happenings of places… like the Hunger Games control room and President Snow’s rose garden, thereby adding a new dimension to the story.

Director Gary Ross has created an adaptation that is faithful in both narrative and theme, but he’s also brought a rich and powerful vision of Panem, its brutality and excesses, to the film as well. His world building’s fantastic, whether it be the Seam or the Capitol. It’s amazing to see things that are suggested in the book fully developed and so brilliantly realized through the artistry of the designers.

And, my God, the actors. The cast, led by the extraordinary Jennifer Lawrence, is absolutely wonderful across the board. It’s such a pleasure to see how they’ve embodied the characters and brought them to life.

So I’d like to sincerely thank all the many people who devoted their time and talents to the film, especially producers Nina Jacobson and Jon Kilik, and the excellent teams at Color Force, Larger Than Life, and Lionsgate.

I hope you enjoy the film!

Suzanne Collins”
