During Sunday night's MTV Movie Awards, Lionsgate aired the first trailer for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, giving fans a much-anticipated peek at the sequel to last year's megablockbuster hit. From the trailer, it looks like new director Francis Lawrence is going to bring a darker tone to The Hunger Games franchise, with Philip Seymour Hoffman playing a new gamesmaker plotting how to destroy Jennifer Lawrence's Katniss Everdeen. Yes, this means Wes Bentley and his awesome beard won't be back for Catching Fire.
