The first official, full-length trailer for The Hunger Games: Mockingjay is here, with Jennifer Lawrence returning as Katniss Everdeen.

"I never wanted any of this," says Katniss in the The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 trailer. "I never wanted to be in the Games. I just wanted to save my sister and keep Peeta alive."
"It's the things we love most that destroy us," responds Snow (Donald Sutherland), primary antagonist and the ruler of Capitol.
The trailer also reveals that Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson) is alive and held in the Capitol.
Based on the first part of the final novel in Suzanne Collins' best-selling trilogy, the film is directed by Francis Lawrence with screenplay by Danny Strong and Peter Craig.
Mockingjay - Part 1 also stars Liam Hemsworth and the late Philip Seymour Hoffman. Game of Thrones actress Natalie Dormer will reappear as Cressida, while Julianne Moore has joined the cast as President Alma Coin.
The films is set to release on November 21.
According to The Independent, Katniss was named the highest grossing action movie heroine in the 2015 Guinness World Record book earlier this month. Lawrence’s courageous character helped earn the first two Hunger Games movies £928 million worldwide.
