Filming of the third installment of The Hunger Games series began this week in old downtown Newnan, Georgia at the Caldwell Tanks Industrial facility. This is the same facility that was used in The Walking Dead TV series zombie death match scenes. One of the large industrial buildings is being used to house the coliseum set. Cast and crew trailers have been set up inside the gated complex. The set is being kept under wraps and heavily guarded, but you may see some of the stars and crew out and about in the area soon. This installment in the Hunger Games is set to be one of the biggest budget films to film in the area to date. There are sure to be many more to come, following the opening of Pinewood Studios in Fayette County in 2014.
The cast will break next week for the Holidays and return to continue filming in early January. The rumor is that they are filming scenes from Katniss and Finnick’s confession in District 12. Whatever the scene is, it apparently involves busloads of extras as they are being seen all over town with staging areas in the local Dillard's and Goodwill parking lots.
