‘The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2’ was released eight long years ago. Finally, the wait is over! The ‘The Hunger Games’ prequel’s’ trailer has finally been released. Tom Blyth, Rachel Zegler, Peter Dinklage, and Viola Davis are among the cast members of the movie, “The Hunger Games: The Ballads of Songbirds and Snakes,” which also has an ensemble cast.
The movie “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,” according to the movie’s synopsis. Due to the threat of his job, Snow is grudgingly given the responsibility of mentoring Lucy Grey Baird (Rachel Zegler), a tribute from the underdeveloped District 12. But after Lucy Gray’s charisma charmed the Panem audience, Snow recognised a chance to change their destinies. With everything he has worked for at jeopardy, Snow teams up with Lucy Grey to improve their chances. Snow embarks on a sprint against time to survive and determine if he can overcome his conflicting instincts for good and evil.
The song “The Hanging Tree” that plays as the second trailer for the film begins may be familiar to viewers. It is the song that Katniss Everdeen, played by Jennifer Lawrence, sung in the 2014 film “The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part I.”
Readers will discover the song’s terrifying origins in “The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes” book, which was penned and originally performed by Lucy Grey Baird (Rachel Zegler). According to Francis Lawrence, who helmed three of the original “Hunger Games” films and is back to helm the prequel, “After witnessing a man being hanged for multiple murders, she crafts “The Hanging Tree”.”
