Lionsgate is announcing a new entry in饥饿游戏franchise! I am very surprised about this news but nothing should be surprising from Cinemacon. The name of the movie isThe Ballad of Songbirds and Snakesand will release on November 17, 2023. The news fromDeadlinereads as follows:

The pic, as previously announced, is directed by those sequels’ filmmaker Francis Lawrence.

The prequel to the $3 billion series is set years prior to the original movies. We see the 18-year-old Coriolanus Snow, who would become the tyrannical President of Panem. The young Snow sees a chance for a change in fortunes when he is chosen to be mentor to Lucy Gray Baird, the tribute from impoverished District 12.

Interesting news! The Hunger Games is a franchiseI remember enjoying a lotin the beginning. My interest dropped when director加里·罗斯离开了球队after the 1st movie. I’m really excited to see Francis Lawrence return and maintain the consistency from the sequels. I hope he can also bring that visceral action I enjoy from the series.

Something about those opening moments at the beginning of The Games in those first two movies…

Anyway, that’s all I have for this one.
