Lionsgate Takes On 'Hunger Games'

Tuesday, March 17th, 2009

Lionsgate is the last studio standing. It has acquired worldwide distribution rights to the film project "The Hunger Games," which will be derived from a futuristic young adult novel written by Suzanne Collins. Producer Nina Jacobson grabbed film rights to the book for her independent Color Force banner in a highly competitive environment two weeks ago.

The Scholastic novel, which is the first in a planned trilogy, imagines a dystopian future (is there any other kind?) where North America has been divided into 12 oppressed districts, each of which is forced to send tribute in the form of a boy and a girl to compete in a televised battle to the death once a year.

I'm like you and have a wide variety of meovis I like to watch. I can dumb down and watch something silly to get a laugh or watch something that is challenging and thought provoking too. I love mainly action, crime or comedies myself. I have my own faves and meovis I watch when I'm in a particular mood too.Shaun the Aussie
