Check out the new IMAX poster for
Gary Ross‘ upcoming adaptation of
The Hunger Games, the first novel in
Suzanne Collins' original trilogy, which features a new image of Katniss (
Jennifer Lawrence), shooting her bow and arrow in profile.
The Hunger Games follows Katniss and Peeta Mellark (
Josh Hutcherson), two tributes from District 12 living in the futuristic world of Panem who are forced to enter the annual Hunger Games, a fight-to-the-death competition between young representatives of each of the 12 districts.
Katniss' advantage in the Games is her skill with a bow and arrow (as emphasized in the poster), which she honed while illegally hunting for food for survival with her friend Gale (
Liam Hemsworth).
Lionsgate announced a few weeks ago that The Hunger Games would be given a limited, one-week run in IMAX theaters, starting March 23rd, 2012.
In addition to the new poster, there are several new promotional images of key characters in The Hunger Games available thanks to the
official movie website.
