Mockingjay - Part I



There is no doubt that the next movie of Hunger Games series: Mocking Jay - part I to be released on November 19, 2014 will drive people crazy to the theaters. Despite of the extension to the Hunger Games and Catching Fire, this movie is bringing more attention due to the death of Philip Seymour Hoffman who portrayed Plutarch Heavensbee in The Hunger Games - Catching Fire. Even if changes were necessary and omission of the plot due to the violence described in the series, the moviesHhave been so farly true to the books. 
Mochingjay is very distinct from both The Hunger Games and Catching Fire. In the movie, Katniss Everdeen will no longer be the center of the story, but other characters will play an important role to the plot: Katniss´s little sister Primrose will prove that katniss is not the only family member with survival skills while we see a lot more of Gale as a rebel and Katniss´s best friend. The film will also allow us to see what happens to Peeta in the Capitol - after he is captured, as the book only shows from Katniss´s perspective. 
The movie will introduce us to the new character President Coin who is the head of District 13 and played by famous actress Julianne Moore.
Despite of the changes, Mockingjay is a very difficult book to be brought to the screen because of the violent war as the central theme from the beggining to the end. No worries, after all, the movie promises to be as good as the book!
