The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes has been a number one bestseller book, so the Hunger Games fans are still active in keeping the fandom alive. Hunger games had controversy back in the day because of the casting of Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss. The Hunger Games happened in a post-racial future where most people are multiracial. A mixed-race woman would have been a better casting but a decade ago was a different Era. Hollywood was not as inclusive.
The Main character is President Snow when he was still in his teenage years. During these times, He fell in love with a contestant of the 10th Hunger Games.Lucy Gray Baird, is apple of his eyes. Her skin is dark, and her hair is curly. Lucy’s ethnicity is unknown. However, many believe she is mixed race, Romani, South Asian, or Native American. Some fans imagined her as a White girl with a tan. I wonder which young actress will get to grab this crucial role.
The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes is speculated to be in Theater somewhere in late 2023.

As a Person who read the Book, I always knew a mixed race girl who should have played Katniss but Jennifer Lawrence got the Role for some reason. Multiracial Actress and Oscar Nominee Hailee Steinfeld auditioned for the role and she was Katniss’ age. She got rejected for the role.

A movie about President Snow? He is such an evil damanable character. Are they going to give him a tragic backstory on why he turned into that Power Hungry tyrant?

Yeah in the book he will start as a purehearted character with good intentions but he will have an Anakin Skywalker moment.

I wonder if this will be a single movie or we are going to have it divided into parts. I remember back when the book was announced, fans were so mad to find out that the main character is Snow because he is such a hated character.
