The Hunger Games: Catching Fire is the feature film adaptation of the second book in The Hunger Games trilogy of novels. Jennifer Lawrence reprises her role as Katniss Everdeen and Catching Fire finds her return as the evil President Snow (Donald Sutherland) orders the 75th Hunger Games be a twisted reunion special between former victors. Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth, Woody Harrelson, and Elizabeth Banks also return for the 2013 film.
