The Hunger Games: Catching Fire hits UK cinemas imminently, and ahead of the release, we got a chance to sit down with the stars and director.

Given that The Hunger Games is one of the tougher, grittier teen-friendly franchises out there, we wondered if there was any goofing around off-camera that helped to cut the tension that was being generated in front of it.

So, what was the funniest moment from behind-the-scenes of Catching Fire , then? Watch the video below, to find out what Jennifer Lawrence, Elizabeth Banks, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth, Jeffrey Wright and director Francis Lawrence had to say. Turns out there was a lot of pranking on set, most of it aimed at J-Law…

Watch the funniest behind-the-scenes moments of Catching Fire video now:

The Hunger Games: Catching Fire opens in the UK on 22 November 2013.

Read our The Hunger Games: Catching Fire review .

And for more J-Law, just watch her chat Batman vs Superman in Episode 6 of our fortnightly show 'Cape Expectations' below...
