Entertainment Weekly has the first look at Lawrence's Katniss, who appears to be in the Hunger Games uniform, adorned with her Mockingjay pin. She's also carrying a set of bow and arrows, which she'll use in the vicious game that pits 24 tributes from the 12 districts in a fight to the death.
"I knew that as soon as I said yes, my life would change," Lawrence tells the magazine of accepting the role. "And I walked around an entire day thinking 'It's not too late, I could still go back and do indies, I haven't said yes yet, it's not too late.' I love this story and if I had said no, I would regret it every day."

The Hunger Games will begin on March 23, 2012.
