Here's your first peek at the poster for the latest installment of The Hunger Games. And, spoiler alert: The image doesn't spoil anything.

In fact, the art for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire shows only a flaming version of the mockingjay pin that looms so large in the trilogy's plot—a striking image, but one that betrays nothing about what we can expect from the new film.

And given that on Thanksgiving Day, as we all sit down to stuff our faces, we'll be exactly one year out from the theatrical opening, fans have a long time to wait.

Here's what we do know about the next installment: It begins as Katniss Everdeen has returned home safely after winning the 74th annual Hunger Games along with fellow tribute Peeta Mellark. Winning means that they must turn around and leave their families and close friends, setting out on a victor's tour of the districts. Along the way, Katniss senses a rebellion coming on...

At least there's Hunger Games fun to be had for fans while they wait until next year's big release: 12 will be chosen at random from the movie's Facebook page and will be featured in the end credits of the film. Winners will be announced when the page hits 12 million total fans—so hopefuls might be wise not to hold their breath.

Still, as they say in the books, may the odds be ever in your favor.

Francis Lawrence is set to direct Catching Fire, based on the second novel in the trilogy, which has sold more than 50 million copies in the U.S. alone. It opens November 22, 2013.
