The Girls of the Hunger Games at Mockingjay: Part 2
As with Mockingjay: Part 1, the premieres for this movie started in Europe and moved westward. After premieres in Berlin, London, Madrid, and Paris (where press was canceled due to the recent terrorist attacks on the city), the American premiere for The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 2 was finally held in Los Angeles on November 16.
Can anyone explain to me why America was the last premiere stop for this American movie? I really don't get it.
Erika Bierman, 14, had a small part as President Snow's unnamed granddaughter in the last two films. She doesn't seem to have a part in Mockingjay: Part 2, but she did attend the premiere.
Willow Shields, 15, has been attending public events a bit less often lately, and I approve. Her appearance here and in Berlin (the only European premiere that she went to) were her first since the Teen Choice Awards in August.
Since this movie marks the end of the the Hunger Games franchise, I thought it would be fun to take a look back at how much Willow has grown up since the first film. Here she is the Mockingjay Berlin premiere (where her hair and dress were more flattering) on November 4, side-by-side with her at the premiere of the first film in March 2012.
It was so nice to see Amandla Stenberg, now 17, return to the red carpet for the final film. Since her character Rue died in the first movie, Amandla didn't attend the premieres for Catching Fire or Mockingjay: Part 1. She was so stinkin' cute as Rue and has aged really beautifully.
I just wish that Isabelle Fuhrman, 18, whose character also died in the first movie, had been there, too.
Jennifer Lawrence, 25
Apparently it was a windy night in LA (you can sort see Jena bracing against the winds in the fullshot below), and Jennifer wore this white coat over her gown for part of the evening. To show support for the people of Paris, she wore a French flag ribbon and a Mockingjay pin on the lapel.
