The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes (DVD)

Generations before becoming Panem's despotic president, Coriolanus Snow (Tom Blyth) was an 18-year-old scion of privilege chosen as a mentor for the still-young Hunger Games. However, the feelings he'd develop for his assignee tribute-the willful Lucy Gray Baird (Rachel Zegler)-might bring him to challenge his every belief. Epic and anticipated take on Suzanne Collins' prequel novel also stars Josh Andrés Rivera, Hunter Schafer, Peter Dinklage, Jason Schwartzman, and Viola Davis. 165 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
