"Hunger Games" star Sam Clafin said in one of his interviews that the whole cast went all out during the filming of the movie.

The movie adaptation of the Hunger Games will come to a close as the stars started shooting the second to the last film of the series. In MTV's interview with Sam Clafin, who portrays the character of Finnick Odair in the film, the actor talked about the emotions in shooting the most recent scenes.

"I think things are getting a little more crazy," he told MTV, "I think people are realizing it is coming to an end and I think therefore everyone's going all out.

"It's been very tough especially through the stuff we've been shooting recently where it was a little more serious," he said. "And I think it was the first time we'd all been kind of together because as you can imagine, if you're familiar with the third novel, we all kind of go our separate ways and then we're kind of brought together at a certain point, and it's the first time we'd all kind of seen each other for so long," he quickly added.

It was such a relief to Hunger Games fans that the filming was back on track as well for its release date on November 21. Fans were seriously concerned that the sequel to Catching Fire will be off schedule due to the tragic death of Philip Seymour Hoffman due to an overdose in February. Hoffman played a central role of Plutarch Heavensbee in the film.

However, the producers assured that Hoffman had finished the majority of his scenes for the movie and only had seven days of shooting for Mockingjay Part 2 left incomplete.

Meanwhile, fans are still waiting for the official trailer or teaser footage of Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 this month. Examiner cited a Twitter account for the Cannes Film Festival which claimed last Thursday that a trailer for the highly anticipated "Mockingjay Part 1" movie will be shown during Cannes in France. However, Lionsgate or Cannes official has not commented on this rumour.
