MTV Movie Awards 2013: Extended 'Catching Fire' Promo Is Here!
You've made it, Hunger Games fans. The MTV Movie Awards show waited literally the whole two hours to present it, but Liam Hemsworth finally revealed the extended promo for Catching Fire Sunday night! Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson may have been absent, but his dreamy looks and the preview was worth the wait! | Related: Check out what you may have missed with our LIVE blog! | Check out 5 things we learned from the clip: 1. Philip Seymour Hoffman was clearly a fantastic choice for Plutarch Heavensbee. The clip gave him a lot of time to be introduced. 2. Catching Fire will be a better sequel than any Twilight film.

Stare At Three New 'Hunger Games: Catching Fire' Posters
While MTV announced their yearly batch of nominees for their upcoming Movie Awards, it may have been a bummer to see that the Hunger Games franchise was left out of the ranks. Never fret: while the original film nabbed a slew of nods in 2012, Catching Fire won't arrive until November, which means you'll have to wait until 2014 to decide how many popcorn trophies it deserves. But mark our words: we've got a sneaky little feeling that you'll be getting a look at the upcoming adventure thriller at the 2013 MTV Movie Awards, going down on April 14th. In the meantime, there are three brand new posters for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire that should please your eyes as three of the films stars give you regal Captiol realness, including Effie Trinket (Elizabeth Banks), Haymitch Abernathy (Woody Harrelson), and Ceasar Flickerman (Stanley Tucci). Jennife...

“As great as Sam is, he's just not what I pictured for Finnick. I hope he's not a let-down. I pictured even more of a pretty boy.”

First 'Catching Fire' Photo Pits Katniss Vs. Finnick
The first look at Catching Fire is here! Entertainment Weekly has exclusively snagged the very first photo of the second film of the series, pitting Miss Katniss Everdeen against Finnick Odair. "Katniss and Finnick Go to War" the latest cover states. Sorry for the spoiler folks, but most of you should know by now that the hunger games are far from over. In the next film, Katniss will become a symbol for the people of Panem, and continue the triangle between love interests Gale Hawthorne and Peeta Meliark.  | Related: Check out all Hunger Games coverage here, and chat with other fans! | You may be thinking to yourself, "Hey, is that Aaron Carter?" But nope, that's S...

Philip Seymour Hoffman In 'Catching Fire'?

Hey guys, The Hunger Games sequel Catching Fire casting rumors are heating up (see what I did there?). We've been thinking of our own dream casting for the various characters, but The Hollywood Reporter has reported that Philip Seymour Hoffman has officially been offered the role as Plutarch Hevensbess.

<<Check out our own casting hopes for Plutarch here!>>

Now, Lionsgate has no comment on the casting for now, so we can't confirm this, but I'd like to think that along with his new Paul Thomas Anderson film The Master, Hoffman will get a little creative (and a little more rich) with the role as the new gamemaker. Lionsgate is hoping to start filming in the fall.

<<Who should play Finnick in Catching Fire?>>
<<Who should play Johanna in Catching Fire?>> 

I'm also pretty excited for this potential casting because that means I can use this clip in this post: 

Obviously, Jennifer Lawrence is coming back to reprise her role as Katniss, Liam Hemsworth reprising Gale and Josh Hutcherson as Peeta. Of course, we all heard that Gary Ross is out and Francis Lawrence is in as director.

Over the next few months we'll be seeing more casting rumors (and confirmations) coming out, so for all your Hunger Games news, follow us here!
