A new promo for The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes invites viewers to join the Capitol’s elite Academy, while showing off the prequel film’s cast.Ahead of the prequel’s theatrical release in November, Fandango posted an “Academy orientation” video to Instagram and Twitter. New students are introduced to a teenage version of the original series’ villain Coriolanus Snow (Tom Blyth), as well as the Academy’s dean Casca Highbottom (Peter Dinklage), the Head Gamemaker Dr. Volumnia Gaul (Viola Davis) and Snow’s fellow student Sejanus Plinth (Josh Andrés Rivera). The video opens with Highbottom, known as the “intellectual father of the Hunger Games,” and others congratulating the Academy’s newest recruits for their moral strength, rectitude, and “noble birth.”A film adaptation of Suzanne Collins’ 2020 novel The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes was planned before the book officially came out from Scholastic. The story is set 64 years before the events of The Hunger Games, when Panem is still recovering from widespread war and the Hunger Games tournament is still in its early stages. The story follows an 18-year-old Snow as he mentors a tribute from District 12, a musician named Lucy Gray Baird (Rachel Zegler). Snow, whose once wealthy family is in dire straits financially, is initially hostile toward his forced mentorship of the poverty-stricken Baird. However, after Baird attracts attention by singing during her reaping ceremony, Snow grows intrigued by her knack for showmanship as they prepare for the next Hunger Games.RELATED: Hunger Games Prequel Star Had to Learn Magic for His Role
