We're heading back to Panem this fall!
A new trailer for "The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes" gives us a better look at Lionsgate's anticipated prequel film helmed by returning franchise director Francis Lawrence.
Set 64 years before Katniss Everdeen volunteered as tribute in the games which pit kids in a battle to the death for entertainment, the movie follows the early days of Panem's future tyrannical president Coriolanus Snow (Blyth).
Far from in power, the teenage Snow tries to prove his worth as his family's fallen from favor in the Capitol. Snow gets more than he bargained for when he winds up a mentor to tribute Lucy Gray Baird (Rachel Zegler) during the 10th Hunger Games.
Also starring Peter Dinklage, Viola Davis, and Hunter Schafer, "The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes" is in theaters on November 17, 2023.
