Video: Sam Claflin Q&A at the 'Catching Fire' Private Screening in London

Sam Claflin attended a private screening of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire at Soho House in London to celebrate the release of the film on DVD and Blu-ray. Before the screening hosted by Digital Spy, Sam participated in a Q&A answering questions asked on twitter with #CatchingFireAskSam. Anyone get their question answered?

Here's video thanks to evad010:

Here's some of the highlights of the Q&A thanks to Digital Spy:

1. Sam has been part of both the Pirates of the Caribbean and Snow White franchises, but The Hunger Games is by far the biggest...

"For me The Hunger Games takes the biscuit - it's such an amazing experience, great working with the guys and you know it's a big happy family. We all have fun on set as much as we all work very, very hard and we all get on like a house on fire. You can't ask for anything more when you're working on a job like that."

2. Sam originally didn't realize that Hunger Games was a trilogy, but quickly became a fan...

"I typed 'Finnick Odair' into the internet and all these fan-drawn cartoons [came up] and I was like, 'Why am I auditioning for this guy?' He is tall, blond, handsome, with a six-pack and green eyes, and he's tanned, and I was none of those things. I read the books in five days and the moment I knew I had this audition I loved every second of it."

'Mockingjay' Moving Back To Swan House + Last Chance Extras Casting


According to Access Atlanta, Mockingjay will return to The Swan House very soon to film additional scenes:
 
The historic building on the grounds of the Atlanta History Center was the site for a good bit of filming for "Catching Fire," the second in the "Hunger Games" series. Elaborate party scenes were filmed on the grounds and interior scenes were filmed in the dining room. An upstairs room served as President Snow's office.

The series finale, "Mockingjay," which will be split into two movies, returns in a few weeks. The Swan House staff is readying for the movie's return by emptying out the living room on the main level, close to the dining room.

Additionally, CLCasting, who have been doing most of the extras casting for Mockingjay Parts 1 & 2, have announced a "Last Chance" opportunity for casting in the "Untitled Trilogy" (which we all know is MJ). The types they need are things like "GREAT LOOKING MEN AND WOMEN" for a "Mansion" scene, "Peacekeepers," and "Council Men and Women." All of these parts shoot between March 26th and April 17th, which is supposedly the last day of shooting in Atlanta.   

Sounds like they could be shooting the scenes in Mockingjay where Katniss and Snow have their final confrontation in his quarters, where Katniss reaches City Circle and Snow Mansion, and maybe even you-know-what (major twist) scene on the front lawn of Snow Mansion.  And if you don't, go back and read Chapter 26.

Director Francis Lawrence talks about this particular scene in the Catching Fire filmmaker commentary:

"It was fun to design the entrance to [Snow's] house that will become key in the next movies, in Mockingjay. The entrance from the square - there's a big scene that takes place in Mockingjay right outside the house here."
