The new “Hunger Games” movie is shaping up, with Lionsgate revealing new casting information for the upcoming “The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes”.
Set to debut in November 2023, the prequel movie looks back to the early years of 18-year-old Coriolanus Snow (Tom Blyth), decades before he would become the tyrannical President of Panem (played by Donald Sutherland in the original film trilogy).

With the 10th annual Hunger Games fast approaching, the young Snow is alarmed when he is assigned to mentor Lucy Gray Baird (Rachel Zegler), the young female tribute from impoverished District 12. “But, after Lucy Gray commands all of Panem’s attention by defiantly singing during the reaping ceremony, Snow thinks he might be able to turn the odds in their favour,” reads Lionsgate’s synopsis. “Uniting their instincts for showmanship and newfound political savvy, Snow and Lucy’s race against time to survive will ultimately reveal who is a songbird, and who is a snake.” In addition to Zegler and Boyce, Lionsgate announced other members of the cast: Jerome Lance is in his final year at Royal Welsh, and in the current cohort of Open Door.
He recently performed his own writing at their Donmar Showcase. Ashley Liao recently shot the lead role in the ACE Entertainment feature “Loveboat Taipei”, which is based on the New York Times bestselling novel of the same name.
