Exclusive: The Latest Hunger Games Filming Updates from Shelby
We have some exciting updates to report exclusively to you tonight from The Hunger Games filming in Shelby, NC. Shoots are almost done in the area, but we have some new information from a local source on scenes that have been filmed there previously and those that are going to be taking place in the next two days.
-Filming of The Reaping completed yesterday.
- A majority of all filming in Shelby has been at the P&M Warehouse. In the actual warehouse, behind it, and within outdoor areas at the warehouse complex the Hall of Justice, The Hob, exterior store fronts for District 12, the train station, and other District 12 areas have been constructed. Some office space in Shelby has also been used for interior shots (for Katniss’s meetings with family and friends following The Reaping, prior to her departure from District 12).
- The entire Hob was outfitted and dressed with items from around Cleveland County. Set designers scoured local antique shops and thrift stores, buying items for the various Hob vendors from local shops.
- Tomorrow and Saturday will feature filming of Katniss returning to District 12 following The Hunger Games as well as more District 12 action and exterior shots.
- They have actually constructed a Capitol hovercraft and it will be filmed tomorrow. It will be lifted with a crane and used for filming.
One word….SQUEEEEE!
Okay, now that we’ve gotten that out of our system, what do you think of these latest updates? Let us know in the comments.

I’m also excited to see the hovercraft, I’m guess it’s the thing that was under that tarp in some other pictures I saw, that was too small to be a platform and too bulky as well. I wish I could be a fly on the walls of the Hob, I just want to see that place visualized.
