The second, full length, trailer for The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes is finally here and brings tons of action, tension, and epic vibes.
With just a couple months to go before hitting the big screen, Lionsgate has given fans an impressive new trailer for The Hunger Games prequel, The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes.
Much as I really loved this book (which I wasn’t expecting to initially), I’ve been wary about how it would translate on the big screen. Based off this trailer, I’d say we’re in for a real treat. It manages to hit that epic feeling from the previous films, while providing some chilling new characters that (Viola Davis is going to rule this) help hammer home certain themes.
Experience the story of THE HUNGER GAMES — 64 years before Katniss Everdeen volunteered as tribute, and decades before Coriolanus Snow became the tyrannical President of Panem.
THE HUNGER GAMES: THE BALLAD OF SONGBIRDS & SNAKES follows a young Coriolanus (Tom Blyth) who is the last hope for his failing lineage, the once-proud Snow family that has fallen from grace in a post-war Capitol. With his livelihood threatened, Snow is reluctantly assigned to mentor Lucy Gray Baird (Rachel Zegler), a tribute from the impoverished District 12. But after Lucy Gray’s charm captivates the audience of Panem, Snow sees an opportunity to shift their fates. With everything he has worked for hanging in the balance, Snow unites with Lucy Gray to turn the odds in their favor. Battling his instincts for both good and evil, Snow sets out on a race against time to survive and reveal if he will ultimately become a songbird or a snake.
The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes hits theaters on November 17, 2023.
