It is once again directed by Francis Lawrence and stars Tom Blyth, Rachel Zegler, Josh AndrÃ©s Rivera, Hunter Schafer, Jason Schwartzman, Burn Gorman, Peter Dinklage, and Viola Davis. The film premiered on November 17, 2023.Over sixty years before Katniss Everdeen volunteers as tribute, the nation of Panem is slowly rebuilding from a devastating war fought by the Capitol against the twelve districts. In a bid to keep the Games relevant amid declining public interest, the tributes of the 10th Annual Hunger Games are given mentors from the Academy, an elite secondary school in the Capitol. One such student is 18-year old Coriolanus Snow (Blyth), who seeks the status and financial reward that have been promised to the best mentor. He is assigned to Lucy Gray Baird (Zegler), the enigmatic female District 12 tribute, setting him on the path to becoming Panem's tyrannical president.Previews: Trailer 1, Trailer 2

The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_135b9977	comment	Bloodless Carnage: Many people, the tributes especially, suffer from horrific injuries that should leave them bleeding profusely, such as Arachne's tribute stabbing her in the neck with a broken bottle, but no blood is ever shown. When Lamina is speared in the stomach by Coral, she even looks at her hand as if it were covered in her own blood, but nothing can be seen.

In both cases, the victims were treated by the oppressors as livestock.

Dr. Gaul monitored Coriolanus closely and pulled strings to ensure his reassignment would end quickly once he satisfied her ideals. After Mayfair is killed, Lucy Gray is forced to flee District 12, as Mayor Lipp has a vendetta against her, and would surely attempt to accuse her of the crime and bring her to the gallows had she remained.

The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_20f689e9	type	Adaptational Villainy
The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_20f689e9	comment	Adaptational Villainy: Somehow, Dr. Gaul manages to be even worse in the film than in the book: For example, declaring there would be no victor of the 10th Hunger Games due to the death of the president's son in the arena bombing, sending snakes to kill all remaining tributesâ€”when in the book, it was only just another obstacle to liven things up instead. That she also announces President Ravinstill's son's death shortly after Reaper draping the Capitol flag over his makeshift morgue in the arena only further aggravates her desire to save face and punish them all for the humiliation caused instead of actually do so for the supposed retribution angle. It's only at the insistence of the students that Lucy Gray is declared Victor as well. While Adaptational Jerkass is in place for Clemensia, her fate being far more ambiguous here also serves to make Gaul having her attacked with the snake worse too. The book at least made it clear that while a grueling process with clear aftereffectsâ€”and Gaul of course figuring she'd be changed as a result too, Clemensia survived the attack. Here because it's not shown, the attack Gaul caused could result in Clemensia's "sudden flu" resulting in her being bedridden; comatose or just outright dead instead.

After Lucy Gray is surrounded by Coral's pack, Snow saves her by sending multiple supply drones into the arena, their shoddy design causing them to violently smash into her attackers at breakneck speed and create chaos. Lucky Flickerman then points out in a deadpan tone how the drones aren't very good at doing what they're supposed to. When Gaul's tank of snake mutts is airlifted to the arena (in dark glass obscuring the contents), Lucky comments on how funny it would be if the tank were full of candy as though it were a pinata. As the tank breaks open and the snakes pour out in horrifying droves, he quickly says that it was most definitely not full of candy.

Gaul tests her, stating the proposal had "accidentally" been placed in a cage of venomous snakes. She assures Clemensia that since she wrote the proposal and not Coriolanus, then the snakes will recognize her scent from the proposal and leave her be. A frightened Clemensia tries to retrieve it, but is bitten by one of the snakes and carted off in agony, while Gaul comments that it will be good research to see how the venom affects her.

We never learn what happens to her after that. Also the fate of Lucy Gray Baird. Coriolanus tries to shoot her with an assault rifle, and seemingly manages to do so, only to learn that he has been shooting at nothing. Later, Highbottom tells him that while the chance of her still being alive is slim, the Capitol has not been able to confirm her whereabouts, meaning she may either have died or moved away to the north like she wanted to.

The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_3f45f1e6	type	Adaptational Heroism
The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_3f45f1e6	comment	Adaptational Heroism: Coriolanus comes off as a much more conflicted person here than in the book due to the loss of his internal dialogue. While shown as ruthless and ambitious, the fact that he is a greedy and arrogant young man with a superiority complex the size of Jupiter isn't quite as clear because we don't hear his thoughts. In the book, he can barely stand anyone around him but hides behind niceties because it suits him with only Highbottom knowing what's lurking below the surface. While still manipulative, him being a False Friend to Sejanus doesn't become clear until much later in the movie than it does in the book. His relationship with Lucy Gray is also more sympathetic than in the book. His thoughts suggest that he views her more as an object to control rather than as a person and considers himself superior because he's from the Capitol and she's from the Districts, though he justifies it to himself that she just got trapped in District 12 during the war. The book also implies he likes her more than she likes him and that she's leading him on to a certain extent to win but their relationship is more mutual in the movie. That his famous line to Katniss exclusive to Mockingjay Part 1 decades later highlights the pain still present at the conclusion of this film onward does also speaks volumes too: His relationship with his family both here and the book also helps better inform his actions in the films too, in that he hopes to definitely elevate his whole family's status and not just his own. He also knows that to have to treat their defiance with the same kind of brutal viciousness he would anyone's becomes a bit more apparentâ€”and helps that context be more palpable as a result. Tigris being his cousin and only being cast out later rather than executed would also apply to this, though it could also be at a time when he thought family wasn't so expendable eitherâ€”and didn't submit himself to that until decades of him committing all the atrocities he has made those kinds of decisions way easier to make. While Lucy Gray will do anything to survive, she is clearly traumatized by the prospect of having to kill other tributes during the Games, and regrets accidentally killing Dill through the rat poison. By contrast, book Lucy Gray has far lesser qualms about killing others so she can win, and in fact has a bigger body count (while she doesn't kill Dill, she does use the rat poison to kill Wovey and Reaper, and uses her pet snake to kill Treech). However sympathetic any of the various academy students are in the book, none of them go as far as to shout out for Gaul to spare Lucy during the attempt to end the games with no Victor.

The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_4e3d253b	comment	Downer Ending: After coming to terms with his betrayal of Sejanus and break-up with Lucy Gray, Coriolanus decides to believe that the Capitol's subjugation over the Districts is right, returning to the Capitol so he can study under Dr. Gaul. He also poisons Highbottom so no one can stop his rise to power. Essentially, by the end of the film, Coryo has fully transformed into President Snow. The only ray of hope is that Snow doesn't know what happened to Lucy Gray; she might have died from being hit by one of his bullets, or she might have gone into hiding in District 12, or she might have escaped the district only to die on her way north, or she might even have survived and been able to reach District 13 or flee Panem altogether. As implied by Olivia Rodrigo's song "Can't Catch Me Now" which plays as soon as the film's credits begin, this agony of never being certain, and the memory of Lucy Gray herself, will haunt Snow for the rest of his life...right up until another young woman from District 12 rises to defy him, and uses Lucy Gray's song to rally the Districts to her cause.

The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_4f4372e9	type	Early-Installment Weirdness
The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_4f4372e9	comment	Early-Installment Weirdness: In-universe, the 10th Hunger Games operates differently compared to the 74th and 75th iterations, both due to reconstruction and general prosperity limiting the available technology and due to the formula struggling to sustain itself due to established practices: Reaping is done by mayors, instead of escorts sent by the Capitol. Naturally, rigging happens often; Lucy Gray speculates that Mayfair likely persuaded her father, Mayor Lipp, to select her for the Games, since she hates her. This is probably why reaping is done by Capitol escorts in the future - to ensure there won't be any rigging. Far from being treated like celebrities, the tributes are entirely dehumanized at this time. Instead of enjoying luxury amenities like gourmet food, five-star accommodations, and expensive clothes, the tributes are dumped in a zoo upon arriving at the Capitol, where they remain until the Games begin. They must figure out how to get food since it's not provided; Lucy Gray persuades Coriolanus to get the mentors to share food with them. The inhumane conditions also lead Reaper to contract rabies from a bat, which isn't noticed until he enters the arena.The tributes start the Games wearing whatever they were wearing when they were Reaped and have no stylists or prep teams. Related to the tributes not being seen as celebrities, the Hunger Games in general don't seem to be a very popular entertainment among Capitolites compared to the spectacle of later ones. Nobody notices that Sejanus is sneaking into the Arena to pay respects to Marcus, or when the Capitol cuts the feed for one hour so Coriolanus can get him out. Perhaps a blatant example exclusive to the film is that nobody objects when Dr. Gaul announces on live television that, thanks to the death of President Ravinstill's son, the 10th Hunger Games has been considered a failure and all surviving tributes will be executed. This is a stark contrast to the Gamemakers being forced to break formula by massive public outcry when the last two tributes of the 74th Hunger Games threaten to deny Panem a victor. Lucy Gray is implicitly saved by the students in the control room objecting and causing Dr. Gaul to allow a victor, not the broader audience of Panem sounding off. Tributes are mentored not by the previous Games' Victors, but by the top students of Capitol Academy. Judging by Dean Highbottom's graduation speech at the start, this is the first time the tributes get mentors at all, meaning the previous Games didn't feature them. This is entirely justified—not only had there not been enough preceding Games to produce twelve victors who would mentor their corresponding District's tributes, but the odds that each of the first nine victors was from a different District are also extremely low. There's no focus on talents. The tributes' chance to win is only measured by their physical fitness and fighting abilities, and it's seen as a novelty when Lucy Gray uses her musical talents to gain attention and win sponsors for the Games. Speaking of sponsors, the whole idea is suggested by Coriolanus, who opines that tributes are more inclined to win had they received motivation to do so. The Gifts are sent not by parachutes, but by drones, which are prone to errors, resulting in the drones smashing, as well as a lot of water being wasted. The Arena is a literal indoor sporting arena rather than some elaborate simulated outdoor environments. The tributes are given a tour of the arena, whereas later arenas would be a surprise until the games begin. The location being bombed by rebels likely results in later Games using the more familiar format as seen in previous films. After winning the Games, Lucy Gray is sent back to District 12 in more or less the same condition that she was in the beginning, with no fame or notoriety associated as a Victor. She does receive some money, but it is a personal gift from Casca Highbottom, rather than a prize of winning the Games. Something not discussed in the book is the look of the telecast: while in Katniss's time, the Games are filmed much more dynamically, during the lower-tech 10th Games, the filming is done with static cameras, with broadcast shots that look more like a security feed or a hidden-camera documentary.

That she also announces President Ravinstill's son's death shortly after Reaper draping the Capitol flag over his makeshift morgue in the arena only further aggravates her desire to save face and punish them all for the humiliation caused instead of actually do so for the supposed retribution angle. It's only at the insistence of the students that Lucy Gray is declared Victor as well.

The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_6bd689ca	comment	Meaningful Echo: In confidence with Coriolanus, Dr. Gaul refers to her colorful snake muttations as a "rainbow of destruction" she wants to set upon her enemies. Gaul saying on television that a "rainbow of destruction" will be set upon the arena during the Games as punishment for rebels killing the president's son clues Coriolanus in immediately to the fact that the snakes are headed to the arena, giving him time to slip an article with Lucy Gray's scent into the tank so they won't attack her. This is a change from the book, where no such dialogue was spoken, the snakes going into the arena wasn't retaliatory, and Coriolanus learned the snakes were going in as a typical Games shakeup while they were in transit and acted on the spot. Toward the beginning of the film, Arachne mocks the fact that Sejanus calls his mother "Ma". This sets up the second and last time we hear the name "Ma" in the film: it's Sejanus's last words, crying out for his mother as he is being hanged for treason. Also a change from the book, where Ma Plinth had more presence and was mentioned more.

The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_72c07237	type	Swiss-Cheese Security
The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_72c07237	comment	Swiss-Cheese Security: A combination of rampant incompetence and widespread corruption results in the security of the Capitol during this era leaving a lot to be desired. When the Tributes arrive at the Capitol, Snow is able to simply waltz into the transport taking them from the train station to the zoo, without any of the guards noticing or stopping him. After Arachne is stabbed in the neck with a bottle the guards' reaction is first to shoot her attacker, nearly killing the only person who's trying to help her, and then manhandle said person trying to help her instead of giving her first aid. The rebels are able to plant enough explosive in the Arena to nearly demolish the place and set them off when a large number of VIPs, including the president's own son will be in attendance. The movie later implies that the people responsible for this are never identified or caught. One of the Tributes takes advantage of the aforementioned explosion to escape the arena, and despite being alone, in a completely unfamiliar city, it takes the Capitol's security forces days to track him down and capture him. Despite the precedent of Arachne's death, the mentors are still able to get unsupervised access to the Tributes at all hours and pass along contraband to them, including rat poison that can be used against the other Tributes once the Games start. Even in the aftermath of the bombing, Sejanus is able to bribe a guard or guards into letting him enter the arena while the Games are in progress. Coriolanus is able to put his handkerchief in the snake-mutt tank without any of the guards in Dr. Gaulâ€™s lab being the wiser.

Snow shooting Mayfair Lipp dead after she haughtily brags she will use her father's, District 12's Mayor, connections to have everyone in the Rebel Cell hanged. Given she had done so before to get Lucy Gray Reaped as District 12's tribute, no one feels sorry for her. Billy Taupe, Lucy Gray's former boyfriend who had cheated on her with Mayfair, which led to Mayfair setting up her rival to be Reaped for the Games, is also shot in the chaos that ensues by Spruce.

And when Coriolanus follows the prints, they simply stop in the middle of the woods, with no sign of where she could have gone. Did she die in the woods and Coriolanus simply never found her body? Did she escape, and if so, to where? Even her motives are unclear. Itâ€™s implied she realized Coriolanus was responsible for Sejanusâ€™ death but she never confirms this. She also seems unsurprised that the guns have been hidden in the shack. And while she lays a trap for Coriolanus, it seems to be a completely nonlethal one. Ultimately, the movie heavily implies the mystery haunts Coriolanus for the rest of his life.

Highbottom greatly regrets this, has worked for years to end the games, and antagonizes Coriolanus out of resentment towards said father.

The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_a91078ea	comment	While Adaptational Jerkass is in place for Clemensia, her fate being far more ambiguous here also serves to make Gaul having her attacked with the snake worse too. The book at least made it clear that while a grueling process with clear aftereffectsâ€”and Gaul of course figuring she'd be changed as a result too, Clemensia survived the attack. Here because it's not shown, the attack Gaul caused could result in Clemensia's "sudden flu" resulting in her being bedridden; comatose or just outright dead instead.

This scene is set immediately after the viewer has seen him sell out Sejanus via jabberjay recordings, showing Lucy Gray's faith is sadly misplaced.

When he gets immediately called out on this, he hides behind the letter of the rules.

The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_b8e3f20a	type	Demoted to Extra
The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_b8e3f20a	comment	Demoted to Extra: This applies to quite a few characters. Aside from Sejanus, most of Coriolanus' fellow Mentors have reduced roles compared to the book. This hits Clemensia hard; in the book, she's a constant presence, as we learn how she suffers and slowly recovers from being bitten by Gaul's snake mutt. In the film, she disappears after the scene where she's bitten, and is never seen again. The Ring twins, though not major characters, are unnamed in the film and not given their grand funeral. Festus Creed, Coriolanus' best friend in the book, is more a part of the herd of students except for promoting his tribute. Persephone Price, Mizzen's mentor, is unnamed. It's also not mentioned that the cannibal in the opening scene was her father. Livia Cardew barely makes an appearance, whereas in the book, Coriolanus regularly remarks on his disdain for her and considers marrying her at the end. The District 3 tributes, Teslee and Circ, are unnamed and presumably killed off in the bloodbath. In the book, they both survived until the snakes were dropped, and Teslee made the final four. Perhaps most noticeably, both of Sejanus's parents are sidelined, with their District 2 origins and decision to adopt Coriolanus as their heir after Sejanus' death revealed by other characters' dialogue.

The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_c181a846	type	Dies Differently in Adaptation
The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_c181a846	comment	Dies Differently in Adaptation: In the book, the District 5 male tribute, Hy, dies of asthma before the Games even start. In the film, he survives up until the Games begin, and, together with Sol, chases Lucy Gray and Jessup to the underground, before both are killed off by the Careers. In the book, Wovey and Reaper are killed by the water puddle that has been poisoned by Lucy Gray's rat poison. In the film, both are killed by the snake mutts, while the rat poison instead kills Treech (originally bitten by Lucy Gray's snake) and Dill (originally succumbing to tuberculosis). Most tributes, actually. Otto, Panlo and Sheaf all live to the Games in the film, while they died in the explosion in the book. Circ and Teslee claimed seventh and fourth respectively in the book, while they died in the bloodbath in the film. In the books, Mizzen was killed by Teslee's drones, while he is killed by snake mutts in the film. Coral's death is from Gaul's snake mutts in both book and film, but the scene plays out quite differently in the film.

The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_e3c36782	type	Call-Forward
The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_e3c36782	comment	Call-Forward: Dr. Gaul's colorful and bizarre fashion choices and makeup stick out like a sore thumb among the more somber Capitol residents of this era, but they would fit in perfectly with the Capitol aesthetic six decades later. Lucy Gray does a mocking curtsy/bow during the Reaping, much like Katniss did in the first film (which takes place decades later). Her defiantly screaming at the Capitol to kiss her ass also brings to mind Johanna's profane rant during her Quarter Quell interview. Coral is from District 4, and like Finnick Odair, a future Victor from her District, she wields a trident. When Coriolanus sneaks into the arena to get Sejanus, his eyes linger for a moment on a bow sitting on the ground, something that would go on to be Katniss' signature weapon. Reaper wrapping the bodies of the dead tributes in a Capitol flag echoes Katniss covering Rue's dead body with flowers, as both are done to spite the Capitol. For bonus points, Reaper does this after mourning for Dill, a District 11 female tribute, much like how Katniss mourns for Rue, a District 11 female tribute. Coral has several parallels with Cato in the 74th Games. Both are the big threats of their respective Games, both hunt down the District 12 Female, and both betray one of their allies. Tanner is killed by Coral, a Career tribute, for letting Lucy Gray get away, mirroring how Cato, a Career tribute, kills the District 3 boy for letting Katniss destroy the Career's supplies during the 74th Hunger Games. As well, both Coral and Cato are killed by mutts, and ponder if killing other tributes was worth it in their last words. When Coriolanus meets Lucy Gray for the first time in District 12, she is composing "The Hanging Tree", the same song Katniss sings in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1, inspired by seeing a man hung by the Peace Keepers from a large tree. On another Katniss-related note, while swimming at the District 12 lake, Lucy Gray tells Coriolanus that the plants the Covey are collecting are arrowheads, or "katnisses", but that it is too early for them. As she does this, "Katniss' Theme" from The Hunger Games: Catching Fire starts playing in the background. Lucretius Flickerman is heavily implied to be the father of Caesar, the host of the Hunger Games during Katniss's time. During a lull in the games, Lucretius calls a restaurant about a dinner reservation and requests a high chair. The Districts supplying their required quotas is initially justified as in the name of "reconstruction" following the Dark Days, but is also shown to be another convenient way of keeping them subservient in exchange for order. Something that becomes long institutionalized by the time President Snow makes his speech about the Districts' relationship with the Capitol in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1. The Peacekeepers' uniforms, while resembling what a soldier from World War II or the middle of the 20th century in general would wear, are also rather white in appearance, foreshadowing their more futuristic and face-concealing incarnations generations later.

The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes / int_e4965307	comment	Composite Character: Since most of the mentors get Demoted to Extra, the few who actually do have speaking lines or any amount of prominence tend to combine traits from multiple different book characters. Arachne Crane in the book wasn't shown to be very pleasant, but didn't get a lot of characterization. For the film, though Arachne dies the same way she originally did, she also shares book-Livia Cardew's traits of an Alpha Bitch and Coriolanus's most despised classmate. Felix Ravinstill is still related to President Ravinstill like his book self, but takes Gaius Breen's role of being critically injured in the arena bombing, hospitalized for a few days before succumbing to his injuries, and his death prompting Gaul to unleash the snake mutts on the remaining tributes.
