Eight years after the finale of The Hunger Games, a new film is announced from the popular science fiction universe based on the book series of the same name by Suzanne Collins. However, we are not dealing with a classic sequel. Instead, we delve deep into the past.
The Hunger Games – The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes tells the backstory of the character Jennifer Lawrence battles in the Hunger Games films: Coriolanus Snow. Before he becomes president and suppresses Panem, he has a formative experience at the Hunger Games at the age of 18.
The Hunger Games – The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes: The First Sci-Fi Returns Poster announces the trailer
The tenth hunger games form the framework of The Hunger Games – The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes. In addition to the young Coriolanus Snow (Tom Blyth), the tribute Lucy Gray Baird (Rachel Zegler) from the poor District 12 plays an important role. She is assigned to Coriolanus as a protégé, which he is not very enthusiastic about.

The Hunger Games – The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes
Although Jennifer Lawrence is missing from the latest Panem film, the first poster is very much in the tradition of the previous films. Again with symbolically charged animals worked. If it was the mockingjay who sparked the revolution in Katniss Everdeen, this time a songbird and a snake meet, representing the two camps of the dystopian narrative.
After the release of the poster, the first trailer for The Hunger Games – The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes is not far away. Nina Jacobson, who has accompanied the series since the first part, reveals on Twitter that the trailer is very close.
When does the new Hunger Games movie start in cinemas?
We’ll have to be patient a little longer until Die Tribute von Panem – The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes starts in German cinemas. Only on November 11, 2023 we can return to the world of Panem.
