Gary Ross News

For our fellow "Hunger Games" fans who are following each and every detail released about the upcoming big-screen adaptation, one of the key questions is how the filmmakers will address the fact that a large amount of the story is told via Katniss' inner monologue.

If one scours the internet and looks up Suzanne Collins' The Hunger Games trilogy, one may think that the teen novels had just been released.

Director Gary Ross and the cast on the behind-the-scenes drama of the $90 million Lionsgate epic that should bring young people back to the movies, propel Jennifer Lawrence into the stratosphere and launch another "Twilight"-sized franchise.

Lionsgate's first adaptation/installment of Suzanne Collins highly successful literary series won't land on the big screen until late March, but work is already underway on its follow-up. Simon Beaufoy is now at work scripting a second picture, the book version of which is called CATCHING FIRE.

Other than The Dark Knight Rises, there's probably no greater anticipation for a 2012 movie than The Hunger Games.
