Did you miss the debut of the trailer for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire on Sunday’s MTV Movie Awards? No problem – we’ve got you covered!

At more than 2-minutes long, the sneak peek at one of the year’s most anticipated sequels – which iwon’t be out until Nov. 22 – is jam-packed with exciting footage.

From the introduction of Jennifer Lawrence‘s Katniss Everdeen and Josh Hutcherson‘s Peta Malark as victors of the 74th Hunger Games, excitement builds. But so does the anxiety.

“She just wants to save her skin, simple as that,” says President Snow, played by Donald Sutherland. “She has become a beacon of hope to them. She has to be eliminated.”

There is also plenty to marvel at with the trailer’s glittering images of the glamorous Capital – cut with, of course, footage of unrest and violence unfolding in Panem, where Snow’s oppressive regime reigns.

Woody Harrelson, who plays Haymitch Abernath, and Elizabeth Banks, as kooky Effie Trinket, make an appearance. And so does bold Gale Hawthorne, played by Liam Hemsworth, and Katniss’s sister, Primrose, played by Willow Sheilds.

“Every revolution begins with a spark” flashes across the screen before Snow calls for the eradication of all the victors. “Because of her,” he says, “they all pose a threat. Because of her, they all think they’re invincible.”
