If you were unaware, the pair are cousins, who have a dramatic falling out between Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes and the final movie in the original saga. “I would love to see Snow’s rise to power because he’s just a great character — but Tigris, and understanding how this girl who loves him so and cares for him and becomes the woman that we saw in Mockingjay, that I’m really fascinated by,” Nina told the outlet. Francis agreed, saying, “Part of what’s interesting is bringing her in here — selling her as this sister figure, the cousin, how much love they have between the two of them — and then you think of the time jump [to Mockingjay – Part 2] and how she’s actually helping them go after him and kill him.
