It’s obviously too soon to say if there will be a noticeable difference between the look and feel of the first Hunger Games movie, directed by Gary Ross, and the second movie, but at least the second, third, and fourth should flow somewhat seamlessly, with the news about Francis Lawrence reported by Deadline today.
