New 'Hunger Games: Catching Fire' IMAX Poster is Really Gothic

A new IMAX poster for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire shows Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence), winged and holding her trusty bow and arrow, standing tall at the forefront of various statues and sculptures. The most notable image is that of President Snow (Donald Sutherland) wearing a blindfold over his eyes.

So far the artwork for Catching Fire has been on point, employing different artistic elements to draw a picture of a Draconian, yet modern, view of Panem. It’s been one of my favorite films to document, and I have to admit I was a hard sell.  I love this poster, but I keep looking for Kanye West to come out singing “N*ggas in Paris”… I know it’s just me.  No shade to the poster, it’s awesome.  In fact, I like the adult nature of it.  Katniss is definitely giving me Botticelli realness…

Check out the poster below:

THE HUNGER GAMES: CATCHING FIRE begins as Katniss Everdeen has returned home safe after winning the 74th Annual Hunger Games along with fellow tribute Peeta Mellark. Winning means that they must turn around and leave their family and close friends, embarking on a “Victor’s Tour” of the districts. Along the way Katniss senses that a rebellion is simmering, but the Capitol is still very much in control as President Snow prepares the 75th Annual Hunger Games (The Quarter Quell) – a competition that could change Panem forever.

THE HUNGER GAMES: CATCHING FIRE will be directed by Francis Lawrence, and produced by Nina Jacobson’s Color Force in tandem with producer Jon Kilik. The novel on which the film is based is the second in a trilogy that has over 50 million copies in print in the U.S. alone.

Lionsgate will release THE HUNGER GAMES: CATCHING FIRE on November 22, 2013.
