The highly anticipated film, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 released a final trailer on Wednesday evening.

Mockingjay - Part 1 is the first part of the third instalment in the Hunger Games franchise, which finds Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) in District 13 after the pivotal events of Catching Fire.

In the first trailer, we saw that Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson), is still alive and held in the Capitol.

In this final trailer, titled 'Burn', we see a glimpse of Peeta who, over a video link, manages to warn Katniss.

"They're going to kill everyone," Peeta tells Katniss. "You'll be dead by morning."

At the end of the trailer, Katniss delivers a chilling message to President Snow: "If we burn, you burn with us!"

Based on the first part of the final novel in Suzanne Collins' best-selling trilogy, the film is directed by Francis Lawrence with screenplay by Danny Strong and Peter Craig.

Mockingjay - Part 1 also stars Liam Hemsworth and the late Philip Seymour Hoffman. Game of Thrones actress Natalie Dormer will reappear as Cressida, while Julianne Moore has joined the cast as President Alma Coin.

The film is set to release on November 21.
