The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes

The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes is a 2023 American dystopian film directed by Francis Lawrence with a screenplay written by Michael Lesslie and Michael Arndt. Based on the 2020 novel, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, the film charts the rise of Coriolanus Snow within the Capitol, his descent into villainy, and the events that occurred during, before and after the 10th annual Hunger Games.

Years before he becomes the tyrannical president of Panem, 18-year-old Coriolanus Snow remains the last hope for his fading lineage. With the 10th annual Hunger Games fast approaching, the young Snow becomes alarmed when he's assigned to mentor Lucy Gray Baird from District 12. Uniting their instincts for showmanship and political savvy, they race against time to ultimately reveal who's a songbird and who's a snake.

This films a prequel to The Hunger Games (2012)
