Fans are already getting ready for the nearing date of the third installment of the popular "Hunger Games" movie which is slated to arrive in theaters Nov. 21.

"Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1" will once again feature heroine Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) who is now rooted to lead an army of rebels back in District 13 following her destruction of the Games.

The first part of the third sequel will pick up right to where "THG: Catching Fire" ended with Gale (Liam Hemsworth) rescuing Katniss from the destroyed game dome. Upon waking up, the bow-wielding tribute looks for her game partner Peeta (Josh Hutcherson) to which she was told that the Capitol has already taken hold of him.

The newest trailer meanwhile revealed that Peeta will now be fighting for the Capitol. He is seen in the video demanding the rebels to surrender their weapons. Katniss was demoralized. She later on demanded the leaders Plutarch Heavensbee (Phillip Seymour Hoffman) and President Alma Coin (Julianne Moore) that Peeta should be rescued "at the earliest opportunity," else they will have to find "another Mockingjay."

Woody Harrelson, Elizabeth Banks, Donald Sutherland and other familiar faces are also set to reprise their roles in the upcoming installment.

"The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2" will be released later on Nov. 20, 2015.

Meanwhile, Lorde's social media has been flooded with comments since she recently announced the release of the first single off the newest soundtrack for the movie entitled "Yellow Flicker Beat."

The 17-year-old Grammy award winning artist has been seen posting a series of pictures revealing the lyrics of the song. In one particular post, she captioned it "yellow flicker beat official audio out now."

Hollywood Life described in their report that the single "has "flicker beats" scattered throughout, which gives it amazing personality and really fitting."

Below is the audio of "Yellow Flicker Beat," written and produced by Paul Epworth and performed by Lorde.
