The trailer for The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes brings fans back into the world of Panem. Set 64 years before Katniss Everdeen volunteered as a tribute in place of her sister, The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes shows the origins of how a young Coriolanus Snow created deadly games.
The synopsis for The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes reads, “[The film] 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 favour. 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.
