The Hunger Games: Catching Fire Plans an Atlanta Shoot

June 3, 2012

It appears that production on Lionsgate’s upcoming The Hunger Games: Catching Fire is being planned to take place in Atlanta, Georgia. The news arrives from Access Atlanta, reporting that the highly-anticipated sequel will film in and around the city from July to December.

Written by Simon Bea and Michael Arndt and adapted from Suzanne Collins’ bestseller, the Francis Lawrence film will feature the return of Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth, Lenny Kravitz, Elizabeth Banks, Stanley Tucci, Donald Sutherland, Toby Jones and Woody Harrelson with quite a few new additions that are expected to be announced soon.

The original film, The Hunger Games, was filmed in North Carolina. A new shooting location is a logical move, however, as part of the sequel’s storyline involves a gaming arena with a wholly different theme.

The Hunger Games: Catching Fire is planned for a November 22, 2013 release
