Instead of reaping two new children from each district, the 75th Annual Hunger Games is taking the previous winners of tournaments, which includes Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark, but there's a deeper reason for why President Snow wants this to happen.

"The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" is described:

THE HUNGER GAMES: CATCHING FIRE begins as Katniss Everdeen has returned home safe after winning the 74th Annual Hunger Games along with fellow tribute Peeta Mellark.   Winning means that they must turn around and leave their family and close friends, embarking on a "Victor's Tour" of the districts.  Along the way Katniss senses that a rebellion is simmering, but the Capitol is still very much in control as President Snow prepares the 75th Annual Hunger Games (The Quarter Quell) - a competition that could change Panem forever.

It actually will change Panem forever, but we don't want to give any more clues if you haven't read Suzanne Collins' third and final novel in her series, "Mockingjay."

Many are focusing on the main characters of "Catchign Fire," which includes Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence), Peeta (Josh Hutcherson), Gale (Liam Hemsworth), Effie Trinket (Elizabeth Banks), Cinna (Lenny Kravitz), and Haymitch (Woody Harrelson). However, there are other characters that are important to the story as well.

Back in July, Willow Shields, who plays Katniss' sister in the movies, told The Hollywood Reporter about the future of her character and the fun she wants to have filming.

"For my character, I'm really excited to do a scene with Woody Harrelson and Josh Hutcherson and Jennifer [Lawrence] where we're making fun of Katniss and stuffing our faces with candy," Shields tells THR. "It should be a lot of fun."

In an interview with MTV News at Comic-Con 2012 San Diego, Shields expressed her excitement to play the important role of Prim.

"I'm excited to grow up with Prim's character, because, you know, I have basically three more movies, but I'm going to be 15 or 16 by the end, but I started off when I was 10," she said. "So it's going to be really interesting to go start to finish and just to see what a difference my acting has become, and just growing up with that character is going to be really fun."

And fans are definitely ready to see all the characters back in their roles for the highly anticipated film adaption.

"Catching Fire" is set to release in theaters Nov. 22, 2013. May the odds be ever in your favor!
