Fans expecting a great deal of violence in The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes will seemingly not be disappointed.Speaking with Empire, director Francis Lawrence explained that the prequel’s Arena sequence, which marks the start of the titular death battle, will be both packed with action and plenty of death. “The opening of the games we call ‘the bloodbath’ and that’s exactly what [star Rachel Zegler] had to jump into right away. She was leaving [the set] bruised pretty much every day, but those fighter qualities came in,” Lawrence explained. The in-fiction event known as The Hunger Games traditionally starts off with all the players in a central location where they can gather resources and weapons at the risk of coming into immediate contact with other contestants who may already be prepared to kill.While the threat of a bloody beginning may sound intimidating, Lawrence has previously spoken about how Lucy Gray Baird, Zegler’s character, will be able to weather the storm. “Katniss [protagonist of the previous Hunger Games stories] was an introvert and a survivor,” the filmmaker said. “She was quite quiet and stoic, you could almost say [she was] asexual. Lucy Gray is the opposite. She wears her sexuality on her sleeve, [and] she really is a performer.”Related: Hunger Games: Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes Promo Welcomes Audiences to the Academy
