Is This Hunger Games Selfie Better Than The Oscar One?

It could be but then again, we're MAJOR Hunger Games fans.

The Hunger Games cast decided to give Ellen DeGeneres’s Oscar selfie a run for its money by posing for a snap at the London premiere on Thursday night.

Jennifer Lawrence and co decided to have a little bit of fun on the red carpet whilst promoting the final film in the franchise, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 (in Irish cinemas on November 20th).

This isn’t goodbye, it’s a see you soon. #friendsforlife #mockingjaypart2 #londonpremiere

Sam Claflin, who plays Finnick Odair in the movies, took the picture and posted it on his Instagram account.

He then followed it up with another photograph as a few of his co-stars got left out of the first (those damn phones are just not big enough sometimes).

The actor was also responsible for another big moment of the night as he and his wife Laura Haddock revealed that they are expecting their first child together.

The Inbetweeners actress showed off her baby bump in a gorgeous embellished gown.

Sam and Laura are expecting their first child.

The couple, who got married in 2013, started dating after meeting at auditions for My Week with Marilyn. Sam previously said that he knew immediately that Laura was the woman he was going to marry.

He explained: “I didn’t know anything about her other than that her name was Laura, she was very attractive and she seemed lovely.

The couple got married in 2013.

“But I went home, woke my friend up at 7am and said, ‘I just met the girl I want to marry. I love this girl like, I love her. She’s perfect.’”

And from his leading lady to the actual leading lady, Jennifer Lawrence wowed in a daring polka dot dress for the occasion. (Let’s just say, she wouldn’t have been able to make any sudden movements.)
