‘Hunger Games’ director, Francis Lawrence is set to return to the franchise to helm the prequel ‘The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes’.
Set roughly 64 years before ‘The Hunger Games, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes’ follows an 18-year-old Coriolanus Snow, who would eventually rise to become the authoritarian ruler of the dystopian nation of Panem, and the central villain of the original ‘Hunger Games’ series. In Suzanne Collins’ prequel, Snow is chosen to be a mentor for the 10th annual Hunger Games — for a young girl from District 12, the future home of Katniss Everdeen.
‘Catching Fire’ scribe Michael Arndt will adapt the screenplay from a treatment written by Collins, who will also serve as an executive producer. Nina Jacobson is also returning as producer, with her Color Force partner Brad Simpson.
