The latest “Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1” TV spot features President Alma Coin giving Katniss Everdeen words of encouragement in some of her darkest moments.
Coin attempts to console Katniss, who is dealing with a difficult situation. She’s become a symbol of the rebellion and knows she is needed to unite the Districts. However, part of her wants to take her loved ones far away and do everything she can to keep them safe.
Watch the teaser in the video for the upcoming film here. “Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1” will be released to theaters on Nov. 21.
Julianne Moore portrays Coin in the “The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1.” The actress spoke to More magazine about her inspiration behind taking on the role of Coin: her kids.
“My son was in line for the midnight show when ‘The Hunger Games ‘first came out. They both loved the books. For them, my being in ‘Mockingjay’ was fairly meaningful,” Moore said.
Moore also gave a behind-the-scenes interview with “The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1” back in May. The actress was intrigued by the character and wanted to see what it was like for Coin to have to run a secret District.
"I've read all the books all the way through and I'm like, 'I want to be in this movie.' Clearly [Coin] was the only part I could play. Coin is very sparingly drawn because you don't know who she is because she's only spoken about through Katniss' point of view,” Moore said.
“And Katniss immediately distrusts her in the way sometimes a young person will distrust an older person whose not familiar to them or in position of authority. So [the director] and I talked about it a lot, about how do we communicate Coin's wholeness as a person. I think Katniss's response to her is very well drawn, but you don't know who Coin is."
