Lionsgate pulled out all the stops for their lavish Mockingjay Part 1 party at a private villa 30 minutes outside of Cannes. Cast members Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Sam Claflin, Liam Hemsworth, Julianne Moore, Donald Sutherland, director Francis Lawrence, Producers Nina Jacobson and Jon Kilik, Lionsgate Motion Picture Group Co-Chairman Rob Friedman, President of Production Erik Feig, and Chief Marketing Officer Tim Palen attended the party surrounded by models dressed in Capitol finery and gorgeous decor. It was reported that Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson were dancing together and lip-synching to "I Wanna Dance With Somebody." How we'd LOVE to see that on video!

According to E! News:

The stars of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay had a case of dance fever Saturday at their big bash at the 67th Annual Cannes Film Festival. Liam Hemsworth was the first to get his groove on to hits by Beyoncé, Michael Jackson and Macklemore and Ryan Lewis.Then Jennifer Lawrence joined him for a brief wiggle to Robyn.

After that, the Oscar winner really got into some booty shaking when she and Josh Hutcherson danced  together to Missy Elliott's hip-hop anthem, "Work It."

Most guests took a 30-minute shuttle ride to the villa. The stone entryway was lit up with red lights and the franchise's signature Mockingjay symbol hung above the doorway. Inside models dressed in goth-like black leather, feathers and more lined a black carpet.

Guests continued to drink and dance, barely noticing when the cast slipped away.
