What Is The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes About?

The movie takes place years before Coriolanus Snow (Tom Blyth) becomes the tyrannical Presdient of Panem. As an 18-year-old, Snow is his family’s last hope to continue their legacy in a post-war Capitol.

“With the 10th annual Hunger Games fast approaching, the young Snow is alarmed when he is assigned to mentor Lucy Gray Baird (Rachel Zegler), the girls tribute from impoverished District 12,” the official synopsis reads. “But, after Lucy Gray commands all of Panem’s attention by defiantly singing during the reaping ceremony. Snow thinks he might be able to turn the odds in their favor. Uniting their instincts for showmanship and newfound political savvy, Snow and Lucy’s race against time to survive will ultimately reveal who is a songbird, and who is a snake.”

In addition to Zegler and Blyth, the movie also stars Viola Davis, Peter Dinklage, Hunter Schafer, Josh Andrés Rivera and Jason Schwartzman.
