How A "Mockingjay – Part 1" Deleted Scene Nearly Drove "Hunger Games" Fans Insane



via BuzzFeed

Lionsgate promoted the scene with binary code, some HTML excavation, and an #UnlockMockingjay hashtag — and then it leaked on Tumblr. UPDATED with a second deleted scene featuring Jennifer Lawrence.


On Monday, Lionsgate sent fans of The Hunger Games on a wild goose chase through the internet for a deleted scene from Mockingjay – Part 1. You can watch the scene below:



The scene, which leaked early on Tumblr, features President Snow (Donald Sutherland) explaining to Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson) why he needs to be the Capitol's "voice of reason."


It's certainly a strong scene, but one can also see why director Francis Lawrence chose to cut it from the film and put the audience in the same place as Katniss — unsure as to what was happening to Peeta beyond what the Capitol was letting her see.

UPDATE: On Tuesday, Lionsgate also released this hilarious deleted scene of Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) undergoing some unconventional makeup.

On Sunday, a message was posted to The Hunger Games' official Facebook profile promoting "an important message" from President Snow.


Yet again, Lionsgate seems to be treating the real world like it's Panem — and specifically, the Capitol.


Not creepy at all!
