‘The Hunger Games: Catching Fire’ “Atlas” TV Spot

Coldplay’s “Atlas” is featured in the new TV spot for the second film of The Hunger Games franchise, Catching Fire. In the TV spot, Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) says goodbye to Gale (Liam Hemsworth) and heads out on the Victor’s Tour with Peeta (Josh Hutcherson). Also shown in the new teaser is just how prominent the Mockingjay symbol has become throughout the Districts.

Directed by Francis Lawrence, Lionsgate will release The Hunger Games: Catching Fire in theaters on November 22, 2013.

And speaking of Coldplay, the Hollywood Film Awards will be giving their “Hollywood Song Award” to the band for their Catching Fire contribution. Chris Martin’s expected in Beverly Hills on October 21, 2013 to pick up the award for “Atlas,” a single which marks the first time the band has specifically written and performed a song for a movie soundtrack.

“The Hollywood Film Awards is thrilled to present the Hollywood Song Award to a band as globally respected and prolific as Coldplay,” said Carlos de Abreu, founder and executive producer of the Hollywood Film Awards. “They continue to build their legacy and, with ‘Atlas’ marking the first time they have recorded for a motion picture, we cannot think of an artist better deserving of this honor.”

The Plot:

The Hunger Games: Catching Fire begins as Katniss Everdeen has returned home safe after winning the 74th Annual Hunger Games along with fellow tribute Peeta Mellark. Winning means that they must turn around and leave their family and close friends, embarking on a “Victor’s Tour” of the districts. Along the way, Katniss senses that a rebellion is simmering, but the Capitol is still very much in control as President Snow prepares the 75th Annual Hunger Games (The Quarter Quell) – a competition that could change Panem forever.
