Here’s a shot from the set of the Hunger Games movie. It looks like Katniss has a 1984 style (the book, not the LA Gear) that echoes a miner/proletariat feel. The outfit definitely looks like it’s from the early 20th century. Instead of a sci-fi feel, like if an Uglies movie ever got made, they’re going retro.
The cover of Entertainment Weekly, though, shows a more modern arena outfit:
It provides a great visual contrast between the oppressed districts and a capitol that has everything.
Another exciting announcement is Donald Sutherland as President Snow:
Has Donald ever played someone who started the movie as a likeable fellow and ended the movie as a likeable fellow? He always seems so…Sutherlandy.
