'The Hunger Games: Mockingjay €” Part 2' updates: full-length trailer out now

The first official full-length trailer for "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 2," the final installment in the "Hunger Games" franchise, has been released by Lionsgate. It showcases the final battle between the rebellion led by Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) against President Snow (Donald Sutherland). 

"My dear Miss Everdeen, make no mistake," President Snow tells Katniss in the trailer. "The game is coming to its end." 

The trailer lives up to his words as many of the sequences focus on the march and final battle against the Capitol and its soldiers. It appears that Snow has set thousands of traps within the city, ensuring that the march to the Capitol will be dangerous for anyone who even tries to step foot within its walls. 

Some of the sequences showcase black goo chasing the rebellion within the city while another reveals the floor crumbling behind them. Finnick (Sam Claflin) is shown fighting one of the half-human half-lizard mutants in the sewers, which is also being explored by Katniss and Peeta (Josh Hutcherson). 

Quick-eyed fans will also catch a glimpse of Eugenie Bondurant as Tigris and a shot of a peaceful meadow which fans speculate to be a part of the film's epilogue. 

The trailer holds nothing back with regard to action either. Katniss is shown leading the march with hundreds of rebels walking behind her, shooting an arrow causing a massive explosion in the sewers, and there are several scenes of the booby-traps such as the wall of goo and the sewer lizards. 

Although the previous film, "Mockingjay — Part 1," earned a little less than "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire," the franchise as a whole has garnered over $2.3 billion worldwide and it is expected that this fourth and final film will bring the films' success to new heights. 

"The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 2" will open in theaters this Nov. 20.
