In the sequel to The Hunger Games out November 22, Katniss and Peeta are forced to compete in the Quarter Quell -- the anniversary of the districts' defeat by the Capitol, which is celebrated every 25 years -- and they end up getting pitted against other ruthless past victors of the Hunger Games.

"The scope of the film is just so much bigger this time around," Hutcherson says in the behind-the-scenes look. "[Director Francis Lawrence] is a genius. He's really put so much attention to detail in so many different areas that matter to me, and I think a lot of audience members will really pick up on it."

"IMAX is just such an immersive format," Lawrence says about bringing the Quarter Quell to life. "To be able to kind of open this world up in a much bigger way is really exciting to me."
