Katniss Everdeen may have faced down President Snow in _The Hunger Games_ trilogy, but she’s never faced down _Jon_ Snow — until now.

A new mashup has Jennifer Lawrence’s fearless bowed heroine facing off against Kit Harington’s sword wielding _Game of Thrones_ character and it’s clear that Winter is Coming to Panem.

In the video, Katniss issues a call to arms against Jon Snow urging her followers to fight against Snow’s forces. Meanwhile, Snow is holed up in the North ready to face down the rising darkness from Beyond the Wall or the wildlings of District 12.

In the clip from YouTube creator [David Elmaleh](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCD15yQ5bcqlZjS5Y0lQ0ojw), Katniss intones, “Nothing good is safe while Snow is alive,” but the question is: if Katniss does manage to kill him, will Snow stay dead?
