Imagine if THE HUNGER GAMES was a reality show?
Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson are out filming for the second installment of the HUNGER GAMES trilogy, but the movie won’t be coming out until November 2013. Fans will have to wait almost a year for CATCHING FIRE, so in the meantime, the CW has come up with a HUNGER GAMES themed reality show that will hopefully fill the void.
The reality show will be called THE HUNT and will be centered around 12 teams of two who have to survive out in to wilderness for one month without their basic necessities, such as water, food or shelter! Entertainment Weekly has released some more information on THE HUNT by saying “They must compete in a game where they’ll rely on their physicality, survival skills and hunting skills to endure the harsh conditions and capture one another.” After the one-month competition is over, the winner will receive a cash prize!
It sounds a bit like SURVIVOR, but we wonder if there will be the important role of mentors like Haymitch or handlers like Effie Trinket? With some interesting twists, we think this could be a big hit with the fans of the trilogy!
