• Warning: There are spoilers ahead for "The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes."
• The prequel stars Tom Blyth and Rachel Zegler playing characters younger than themselves.

"The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes" follows a teenaged Coriolanus Snow (Tom Blyth) decades before his tyrannical rule as president of Panem.

Set 64 years before the main "Hunger Games" saga, most of the cast is older than their on-screen counterparts.

While the movie doesn't share the cast's ages, author Suzanne Collins' best-seller of the same name reveals some of the ages directly or through context clues.
