Vanity Fair Highlights 6 Character Portraits From The Hunger Games: Catching Fire Movie

The Panem Capitol Couture is definitely setting a new trend of marketing standards for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. It so fashionable that even real life fashion icons, like Vanity Fair, needs to take hold of the movie's fashion style with the new set of Catching Fire character portraits worthy of every fashion catalogue.

These new portraits give highlights to characters like Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen in her wedding gown, Sam Claflin as Finnick Odair, Josh Hutcherson as Peeta Mellark, Liam Hemsworth as Gale Hawthorne and Elizabeth Banks as Effie Trinket.

Check out these 6 new The Hunger Games: Catching Fire character portraits released over Vanity Fair.

Here is what Vanity Fair has to add about the movie:

“One of the big overarching themes for all the books is this idea of the consequences of war, and one of the unfortunate consequences of war is post-traumatic stress,” explains Francis Lawrence, who directed The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, out this November. (His previous films include I Am Legend and Water for Elephants.) In the new movie, not only have young leads Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson aged nearly two years, but also their characters, Katniss and Peeta, have returned to their home district haunted by what they’ve seen and done. “That’s one of the first things you see in the movie,” the director adds. “They’re changed people because of having been in the Games.”

The Hunger Games: Catching Fire will be released internationally on November 22, 2013.

The Best of Keane is an anticipated compilation album, featuring the best and only the best songs by Keane.
