The Hunger Games star plays a Russian spy who falls for a CIA officer (Joel Edgerton) and considers becoming a double agent. Opening on a hotel room, we see Lawrence's character Dominika Egorova sitting bolt upright in a hotel room, sipping from a whisky glass - when a man walks in and orders her to take off her dress.

It does not look like the encounter ends well for him, to put it mildly.
