Lionsgate has secured a date to begin trying to capitalize on the tweener craze with an adaptation of Suzanne Collins’ futuristic novel The Hunger Games. So when can you expect the ‘Gate to get all emo?
According to The Hollywood Reporter’s Heat Vision Blog March 23, 2012 will be the day when the Gary Ross directed flick finds its way into theatres.
The Hunger Games, first published in the fall of 2008, takes place in a society in which districts pay tribute in the form of a teenage boy and girl who are forced to fight to the death on live TV.
Set in post-apocalyptic America, the movie will introduce 16-year-old heroine Katniss Everdeen, who must participate in a fight-to-the-death annual event. Each battle will pit youths from each of the Capitol’s 12 districts against each other.
Look for more soon!
