Rachel Zegler Is the ‘Anti-Katniss’ in Hunger Games: Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, Director Says

The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snake, the revival of the beloved The Hunger Games series, is set to hit the screens with a very different protagonist.Departing from the intense action of Mockingjay, Part Two that graced theaters in 2015, the upcoming installment takes inspiration from Suzanne Collins’ prequel novel, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. Returning to the director’s chair for the latest film is Francis Lawrence, who previously directed three of the four films in the series, Catching Fire and both parts of Mockingjay. The director discussed the film in an interview with Empire Magazine and shared some details on Zegler’s Lucy Gray Baird.Lawrence acknowledged the concern that the lack of series’ face, Jennifer Lawrence as her iconic character Katniss Everdeen, may indeed affect the film’s reception. “Will people go see a new Hunger Games movie without Katniss?” Lawrence wondered as he proceeded to describe the character in depth. “Katniss was an introvert and a survivor. She was quite quiet and stoic, you could almost say asexual.”RELATED: Why Katniss Killed President Coin in The Hunger Games
