The Hunger Games Mockingjay Part 1 Hits Low On Box Office; Does It Have To Do With Peeta Being On The Capitol's Side?

Nov 21, 2014 08:39 PM EST | By Cindy Wallace

The Hunger Games Mockingjay Part 1 has been reported to hit low in the box office with only $125 Million dollars upon opening date. According to Variety: "Early Friday projections show Lionsgate's "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1″ heading for an opening weekend of about $125 million in the U.S. - significantly lower than recent forecasts and over 20% below the first two "Hunger Games" movies."

As previously reported, It seems that the upcoming movie will feature Peeta as the enemy, being on the Capitol's side. But Katniss obviously doesn't believe any of that to be true, and even aims to rescue Peeta, or the resistance will lose its Mockingjay.

According to Rolling Stone, "Lawrence returns as Katniss Everdeen in the third installment of the series, where the rebellion is in full swing and Katniss, now known as Mockingjay, is responsible for leading the Districts of Panem against the Capitol. The trailer opens with our heroine speaking to President Snow, played by Donald Sutherland, and pronouncing the motto fans love her for: 'I just wanted to save my sister and keep Peeta alive.'

The rest of the trailer shows Katniss and Gale Hawthorne, portrayed by Liam Hemsworth, raising their bows and arrows to shoot down Capitol aircrafts and protect their fellow citizens. Meanwhile, Peeta is being held captive by the Capitol and manipulated to denounce the rebellion. Katniss definitely has her work cut out for her.

The Hunger Games Mockingjay Part 1 trailer showed Peeta seemingly wounded and Gale talking to Katniss, saying he would rather die that utter the words that the Capitol (Peeta) wants them to say. 

The movie will also feature Julianne Moore as Alma Coin, president of District 13; Elizabeth Banks as Effie Trinket; Woody Harrelson as Haymitch Abernathy; and the late Philip Seymour Hoffman as Plutarch Heavansbee. Mockingjay - Part 1 hits theaters November 21, 2014."
