This is very exciting because we get to unveil the trailer for your movie that you worked so hard on and now tell everyone watching
You guys haven't watched this at all yet. No. All right. Well, let's do a crowd over
But Kenneth's gonna do the honors for us. Wait, we've been taking bets on the trailers because Ben won't get tattoos with us
No, because what it was in the last trailer was it was if he if he was a like in the trailer for more than
3.5 seconds, then he would get a tattoo with us. We failed. So if I'm
If I say something in this trailer
Because I haven't spoken in any of the trailers if I say something in this trailer you have to get the 12 with us
I feel like you know something that I don't know about. She hasn't seen it yet so she doesn't. Here we go. All right.
Whitney you good? You got a good view? Yes. Okay. Wait, let's turn it up. Make sure it's all turned up
Nobody ever wins the games period
There are survivors
There's no winners
Haymitch Abernathy
These are my games
While you die
It's all up to me
Who am I?
nobody
The capital has all the power they always have
It doesn't mean they always will
Twice the number of tributes twice the glory
50 years of cruelty
50 years of tyranny look alive children. Well, you still can
But the question is Haymitch. Why do you agree to it? Why do any of us?
Just something you think about
The arena it's a killing machine
But all machines can be broken. How would you go about that?
If anyone finds out what you're doing in there and then we're all dead we're not animals to kill for their entertainment
Show the world that there is another way
You Haymitch
Sit with that for a sec
Get their faces. Oh my god, come on
Oh wait, but I don't think you have to get a tattoo. No, I don't
You're clear again, we got a bit of that one. Don't be a second trailer. Oh my god
That's Wow, what's going through your head right now
That's a great shot, that's a great shot and like the music and the titles
Yeah, the pace of it is so exciting. I know you're like with Lily watching this for the first time
So I get it. I mean initial reaction. We can't it to the trailer
Incredible. I'm still thinking about it. Oh, yeah, it's incredible
it's
It's amazing. That was so cool. I like your
They really know to build the tension
The way that it was
Yeah, I love the music yeah, I
Heard some audible gasps from you and you're watching that. What were you reacting to?
Lovely probably just like being
Myself
There is that part of it off showed the world that there is another way I love Jesse's part to Jesse's so good. Yeah
Does it take you back to being on set and making this movie I have to know, you know
Obviously you guys filmed it a while ago in some ways
Yeah, you know and a lot of this stuff that in the trailer
you know is
Like the hovercrafts and stuff on the day. We were just they were just like and there will be hovercrafts
You know
They're not sending real hovercrafts right and then you know the first time seeing what they actually look like you were now the next generation
Of Panem. I mean, what does it feel like McKenna to be carrying on this legacy?
McKenna Grace did she ever talk to you about the fact that she's make fan edits of PETA on tick-tock
I did not know that. You know, they're the one to break it to me
He was impressed diabolical
It's a good joke
I
Did get to speak to him about
His experience in the games because I was like, how are you as ridiculously hard as ours? What did he say?
Did he say it was yeah, he was like, yeah
It's just ridiculous anytime you're in the Hunger Games because it's like you're really just running through the woods
You're really doing these things and you're just like in it
Josh Hutchinson and Jennifer Lawrence will reprise their roles in sunrise on the Reaping out November 20th
Joseph Zeta is stepping into Woody Harrelson's shoes to play a younger. Hey, Mitch Abernathy
Joseph what moment of what you just saw? Are you most excited to finally see come to life?
There's a lot of your face in that I think
The that the same ones with snow I'm clapping it's great
And I love that they put that in the trailer I really I really like that scene it's a powerful one genius
I get to chat to Woody after and he basically just you know, he
Well, he we called and we spoke and he told me
just stories about his experience of
Filming and you know, I had so many questions for him
So I watched all his films leading up to it, but he really wanted to hear about me, which was really special. He
Asked just about my whole experience and my backstory, which I thought was really
It's huge. I mean also this cast is so stacked
There's you guys who are so good and then you have all these amazing actors like Glenn Close her
Transformation don't even to Drusilla. What was your first reaction when you saw that?
It's speechless. Yeah, like there's nothing you can say, right? You just kind of look and you stare I
Didn't know how did she say what?
Oh, she was like one of the first days of shooting
We were on set and I like it was in between takes and I just look up and she's looking me dead in the eye
And she's in the full makeup and she just goes
Click it means she has this part right at the start when it's in the trailer where she puts her claws on my face
And she would always like each time she'd grab me
Like put a fingernail through my teeth you have no idea
What's in store for you? J-law is finally on Instagram you guys I saw that if anyone
says anything negative I
Will quit is there something you wish someone told you about being on social media as a public figure that she should know you have
To follow the new cost of the hunger
That's what I heard yeah, it's like an Instagram hack
It's a thing yeah, I agree it's a thing someone tell me I don't know who said that someone said that so funny
She's only following 46 people, but I think she can I think she could follow for more
