Feast your eyes upon the below image, because "The Hunger Games" are about to begin!
Consider today your lucky day, fans of Suzanne Collins' best-selling books, because not only did you receive a teaser for the exclusive sneak peek that will premiere at this Sunday's VMAs, but we also now have an exclusive first image from the sneak peek. Check out the photo reveal in the video below:
The image shows leading lady Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen in the woods. Fans will know she spends a lot of time in the woods during the story, so this shouldn't come as too much of a shock.

FROM MTV MOVIES: Katniss Everdeen is stepping out of the Hunger Games arena and into the Moonman-filled madness of the MTV Video Music Awards. At the VMAs on Sunday at 9 p.m. ET, MTV will debut the very first look at "The Hunger Games," the Jennifer Lawrence-starring adaptation of the best-selling dystopian novel.
Up until now, we've seen photos of Lawrence as the arrow-wielding Katniss, plus glimpses of Josh Hutcherson as Peeta and Liam Hemsworth as Gale. But we haven't yet seen "Hunger Games" in action. All that will change during the 28th annual VMAs, when Lawrence herself introduces the exclusive look, which will then be available exclusively on MTV.com.
If you don't already know all there is to know about "Hunger Games," now's your chance to study up. Set in a future in which the United States has crumbled and 12 districts are overseen by a brutal Capitol, Katniss and Peeta find themselves forced to participate in an annual ritual called the Hunger Games

(See where the movie magic happens in this photographic tour of the Paramount lot.)
When the celebs arrive Sunday night, they'll be going through Paramount's Bronson Gate — one of the most widely recognized Hollywood landmarks. A common misconception is that it's named after Charles Bronson, although the reverse is true: He named himself after it or, rather, the street it's on, when he changed his name from Buchinsky.
