Empire Magazine Features The Hunger Games: Catching Fire
Lead actress Jennifer Lawrence and director Francis Lawrence were featured in the November 2013 issue of Empire Magazine. Read the excerpt from their interview below:
Jennifer on fame:
It’s hard to say you identify with someone who’s facing life and death and war,” she shared. “It’s not like, ‘Oh my God that’s, like, totally how I feel’.
“But there is the connection in that she doesn’t feel like just part of the town anymore. Now everyone treats her as a celebrity… Whereas she still feels like she’s part of them.”
“I get that a lot,” she admitted. “I’ll go to get a coffee where I always get coffee and all of a sudden there’s this weird mood, and I’m like, ‘Come on, I still get coffee here, just say hello’.”
Director Francis on the changes he made for Catching Fire
“I thought there was a real opportunity to open up the world … I didn’t get enough of a sense of place in the first movie. I thought we could grow visually because we were seeing more of the Districts, the Capitol and the whole arena.”
Jennifer on bringing on Francis
“I was consulted about who the new director would be, yes … but I’m not delusional. I’m sure that if I’d said I absolutely hated Francis they’d have hired him anyway… Fortunately I think Francis is the smartest decision any studio has ever made.”
Francis on the cast
“This cast all work incredibly hard … but if you had a scene with Jennifer, Josh and Woody Harrelson then it was pretty much a disaster. They would not keep a straight face.”
Jennifer on not getting bored playing Katniss
“I still love playing Katniss and am really looking forward to being her again. There’s honestly no part of it that I’m bored with…” she pauses for a second and then adds, mock-furiously, “Actually that’s not true. I am so bored with her braid. I keep asking, ‘Cant I just wear my hair differently?’ But they keep saying no.”

New Still of Peeta and Effie in Catching Fire Plus Director Francis Lawrence on Catching Fire (Magazine Scans)
In the July 2013 issue of Empire Magazine, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire was featured. The issue let's us see a still featuring Effie (Elizabeth Banks) and Peeta (Josh Hutcherson). The scene is believed to be during President Snow's banquet.
Update: an HQ version of the above still is already released. Check it out below:
In the same issue, director Francis Lawrence also talks about the movie.
On the tone of Catching Fire
“Everything opens up in this one … I think that without the second and the third book, the first movie would feel like a relatively small story, but the mythology opens up and the stakes ratchet up. You realise that this is about so much more than one person and that a whole country and a rebellion and loads of people’s lives are at stake.”
On revisiting the Games and Tributes
“Any time leading up to the Games you’re gonna go to the Capitol, go through training, go through the chariots and the interviews. So we had to be really vigilant about how to make those moments feel different. These tributes are like war veterans. One of the great things about all the books is just the theme of the consequences of war. All these people, and they how it all in different ways, have some form of PTSD, and the ones that you get to know, you start to see the cracks in their veneer. And once we got into the arena – ours is tropical so the geography was wildly different – it was easy.”

Hunger Games Cast in Empire Magazine
Here are a couple of stills from the upcoming Hunger Games film. These were taken from the iPad version of the Empire Magazine from UK.
The first still features Effie (busy with her make up retouch thing) with Haymitch and Peeta on the background. Based from this still, I think this might have been taken from the Tribute train heading to the Capitol. Haymitch is having a small chat with Peeta and I think he's talking about Effie. Bad Haymitch. Oh and there's an inset of President Snow.
The next still is from the Girl on Fire, Katniss Everdeen. Actually, she's not in fire with this one. She's spotted on 12's electric fence with her hunting attire on. Katniss is wearing her father's jacket and ready to enter the meadow. Her outfit is a manifestation of District 12's poverty as opposed to the rich and glamour of the Capitol. And something bothers me about the belt. LOL
