Filming on the two-part Mockingjay finale has moved overseas to Paris, as new paparazzi photos prove.
A handful of photos from the set of Mockingjay in the iconic French city depict lead actress Jennifer Lawrence, who plays Katniss Everdeen, surrounded by extras and crew as she prepares to film a scene.
The photos, which can be viewed over on MTV, show the actress is wearing a long, heavy blue coat. While it’s pretty stylish, there’s a high chance that the coat won’t appear in the movie. Instead, it’s being used to cover her Mockingjay outfit underneath.
Judging by the extras around her, it looks like she’s in the Capitol.
The cast and crew understand that when they film outdoors they run the risk of being snapped by the paparazzi, so the coat will prevent leaks ahead of when they want to unveil the outfit.
Mockingjay only recently wrapped filming in Atlanta, Georgia, where the large majority of shoots have taken place under the direction of Francis Lawrence. Word of the production wrapping in the southern city was first noted by producer Nina Jacobsen on Twitter in mid-April:
Just wrapped Atlanta. My heart is full of gratitude for our amazing US #Mockingjay crew and Francis Lawrence @Hibbits who inspires us all

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 1 will open in theaters this November. No official stills, posters, or a trailer have been released. However, we do expect things to start arriving soon because Catching Fire promotional material began surfacing around this time last year.
Yesterday Lionsgate announced that True Blood alum Michelle Forbes has joined the cast of Mockingjay, Part 2 as Lt. Jackson.
