Following the tragic events in Paris, organisers of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay 2 premiere have decided to cancel the upcoming Los Angeles red carpet.

Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutchinson and the rest of the cast from the movie were due to conduct several interviews from the premiere, but organisers have pulled the plug at the last minute.

"Out of respect for the very recent events in Paris, we have decided to modify our red carpet and we will not conduct interviews at Monday's Mockingjay 2 premiere," a rep told Entertainment Weekly in a statement. Part of the movie, which features violent scenes of war, was filmed in France.

Following the Paris attacks, a number of other entertainment events have been cancelled, including two sold-out U2 concerts and a Foo Fighters concert.

"We watched in disbelief and shock at the unfolding events in Paris and our hearts go out to all the victims and their families across the city tonight," said U2 in a statement.

The Foo Fighters echoed the sentiment, saying the band couldn't continue its tour.

"In light of this senseless violence, the closing of borders, and international mourning, we can't continue right now," the band explained. "There is no other way to say it. This is crazy and it sucks. Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone who was hurt or who lost a loved one."
