Photo thanks to MockingjayUpdatesJennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson were at their adorable Joshifer-y best. WHAT are they doing in the photo above? We don't know but I'm sure the edits are being created as we speak. And - who knew - Jennifer has her own butt-brusher. I wonder where one applies for this position?

We here at PP can't get enough of all the on set images and video - we've obviously read the book many, many times and it will look so different after production is complete that we aren't feeling too spoiled. But we are very sensitive to those who don't want to see so much of the production and want you to still be able to enjoy coming to the site!

Kids Wish Network Grants Teen's Wish To Visit The 'Catching Fire' Set

How about a great story for your Good Friday? A new photo from the set of Catching Fire hit the internet today, and it has a lovely story to go with it. Read about Marisa Tran's set visit, made possible by Kids Wish Network:

As Marisa Tran was stuck in the hospital recovering from rounds of chemotherapy, there was one book series that she loved to repeatedly read cover-to-cover, The Hunger Games. The teen easily related to Katniss’s bravery and strong nature, two things Marisa needed to help her through the devastating treatment required to fight off her life-threatening illness. When she was well enough, Kids Wish Network wouldn’t think of a better way to show her some support than by granting her wish to visit the set of the series second book and movie, Catching Fire.

Marisa was diagnosed with both acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) in 2011. Having both life-threatening conditions is a very rare occurrence, and Marisa started treatment immediately. In October of 2011, she underwent her first bone marrow transplant then began chemotherapy for each diagnosis separately. The teen spent over six months in the hospital recovering, most of the time in an isolation unit as her immune system was extremely compromised.

When she was discharged, there was nothing to stop her, or Kids Wish Network, from granting her wish. Marisa and her family enjoyed an all-expense paid wish trip to Atlanta to visit the set of “Catching Fire” during filming. Her favorite part was meeting the amazing cast, including stars Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Woody Harrelson, and Liam Hemsworth.

Josh Hutcherson and Sam Claflin at the MTV Movie Awards

The bromance lives! Photo thanks to lovingeverlark.tumblr.com Josh Hutcherson and Sam Claflin were at the MTV Movie Awards tonight. The Hunger Games: Catching Fire picked up 3 Golden Popcorn Statues at this year's MMAs: Movie of the Year, Best Male Performance for Josh Hutcherson, and Best Female Performance for Jennifer Lawrence. (Get all the details HERE)

Josh didn't walk the red carpet but Sam Claflin and his gorgeous wife, Laura Haddock did. Perhaps they should win an honorary award for being the most adorable couple? Or, wait, maybe that award should go to Sam and Josh.

The pic above was posted by Whitney on tumblr with the caption: So today I went to the red carpet at the MTV Movie Awards and Sam Claflin skipped by saying “sorry I can’t stop, I’m late and I’ve got to mush on through.”

We didn't get Josh on the red carpet (boo!) but we did get some cute shots of him inside the awards. He attended with his little brother Connor. Connor, congrats on becoming an internet sensation.

Josh gave a little tribute to Philip Seymour Hoffman in his acceptance speech for Catching Fire saying, "I know that if Philip were here, he would think this is really cool. To have him in our movies was one of the coolest things in the world. He’s one of the actors I’ve looked up to my entire life. We think about him every day on set. Wherever he is, this definitely goes out to him as well."

Another fantastic interview: Josh and Sam talk to MTV's Josh Horowitz backstage. Whoops, nice spoiler Josh. "You're dead."

Your next question is probably, "When is the Mockingjay teaser trailer coming?" Ours, too! I wish we knew for sure. Nothing about a trailer has been officially confirmed as of press time. The only information we have at this point is from the article we posted back in Jan in which the Mockingjay team discusses the marketing plan and confirms the Cannes Film Festival as a place where at least SOMETHING from Mockingjay marketing will be revealed. We'll keep you updated!
