'The Hunger Games: Mockingjay €” Part 2' spoilers, plot: New promo image sparks controversy

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2 Lionsgate

"The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 2" is the concluding film in the Jennifer Lawrence-led franchise, and Lionsgate has been working hard to build a hype around the film as its release date draws nearer. Its latest one certainly reaped massive attention. 

The company took it upon itself to remind fans that the film is less than 100 days from its official showing with a countdown artwork, as Katniss looks fierce in the background. However, the way it was assembled inadvertently spelled an expletive word. 

It easily stirred major talks in social media, and Lionsgate removed it as soon as it realized what the placement of the letters and numbers has formed. Unfortunately, the image was put up long enough for some to save a copy, and now the photo is still circulating online. 

Of course, many poked fun on the blunder while fans came to the defense of Lionsgate and "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 2." The positive in this is that it really built hype, which Lionsgate is trying to get.

The movie company did not comment on the matter and the hysteria certainly did not stop the countdown to the highly-anticipated silver screen showing of film, which takes place on Nov. 20. 

In the fourth and final film, Katniss leads Panem in a rebellion against the evil President Snow and the ruthless ways of The Capitol. Several promotional images as well as trailers have been released, allowing fans to get a glimpse of the Girl on Fire's ultimate battle. 

In the first full-length trailer for "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 2," viewers saw the residents fighting through the minefields planted by Snow as a way for him to thwart their plans to overthrow his government and gain the freedom that they deserve.
