Gale Hawthorne
The Hunger Games official instagram account will be posting exclusive content for the next 8 days. The first image is Liam Hemsworth as Gale Hawthorne:
From hunter to soldier. Liam Hemsworth returns as Gale Hawthorne in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1.
Check back every day around 9:00am for the latest.
Thanks to Wired we've got our first look at the "Rebel Warriors" of Mockingjay Part 1. Check out members of Star Squad 451 in uniform with the awesome new black mockingjay symbol in the background. We can't wait to see Katniss' poster with those wings looking like they're coming out of her back - now we see where that stylistic change Francis Lawrence talked about in EW is going. It will be the warrior version of the mockingjay dress Cinna created for Katniss in Catching Fire.
The "Rebel Warriors" posters feature Liam Hemsworth as Gale Hawthorne, Natalie Dormer as Cressida, Mahershala Ali as Boggs, Wes Chatham as Castor, Elden Henson as Pollux and Evan Ross as Messalla.
Newgrass group The Lumineers, featured on the upcoming Catching Fire soundtrack, recently debuted "Gale Song" at a live show in Marymoor Park in Seattle.
From 107.7theend in Seattle:
It’s not every day you get to use the phrase “world exclusive”, but that’s truly what The Lumineers were cool enough to suprise us with during our complete broadcast of their live set at Marymoor Park last Saturday. While initially it went unknown whether the song debuted in their encore was to be featured on their new album or was simply a something the band had drummed up while on tour, we can now confirm the track will appear on the forthcoming Hunger Games:Catching Fire soundtrack alongside The National, Coldplay, and Imagine Dragons, announced today. Bearing the title “Gale Song” the tune is a fragile and soft, slow builder which grows to an immense emotional peak before settling once again. If it’s any indication of The Lumineers direction, the band are certianly set reprise themselves with one of the most heartfelt records of the year.

Edit to add: The radio station has removed the link to the live recording on their website, presumably at the request of Lionsgate.
What a sad song! "And all this too shall pass.."
Photos from the filming of Mockingjay Parts 1 & 2 are finally starting to trickle in, and yesterday saw the surfacing of both Jennifer Lawrence and Liam Hemsworth - with Liam sporting what is believed to be the uniforms worn by those in District 13!
We have to admit these photos are slightly bittersweet, though ... it's the beginning of the end!

HitFix sat down with Liam Hemsworth to talk about his upcoming film, Paranoia. They spoke a bit about Catching Fire and Liam talks about Gale and says that his "stuff is more in the 3rd one, actually."
From HitFix:
The Hemsworths, though, are just these two charming giants, Australian boys who obviously drank their milk. Liam's been working like a madman for the last few years, and I think it' s safe to say that at this point, the biggest thing he's ever booked was his role as Gale in The Hunger Games. In that first film, it doesn't really seem like much of a break for an actor, and I asked him when we sat down to talk about "Paranoia" if it felt good to finally jump in for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.
After all, the new trailer for the film features what seems to be a pretty big couple of moments for Gale, and I seem to remember his character playing a larger role in the second book.
You'll see Hemsworth's response here, and it sounds to me like he really doesn't get to take center stage now until the third and fourth film. That's got to be tough as an actor, basically playing a supporting supporting supporting role while waiting for the future chapter of the story where you get to finally show everyone why you were cast in the first place.
