We also have Josh Andrés Rivera's Sejanus Plinth whose family connections gain him admittance to the Capitol and Snow's counsel, despite Plinth's hatred of the games. Then we have the ruthless new clutch of game-makers who will be making the tributes' lives a living hell. Peter Dinklage is playing Casca Highbottom, the Dean of the Academy that President Snow is attending. Katniss’ advantage in the Games is her skill with a bow and arrow (as emphasized in the poster), which she honed while illegally hunting for food for survival with her friend Gale ( Liam Hemsworth).

Hunger Games Prequel Posters Have Everyone In Capitol-Ready Hunger Games Prequel Posters Have Everyone In Capitol-Ready

But you might not know the specifics: The Reaping isn’t a totally random lottery. For one thing, it’s weighted toward older kids. A 12-year-old’s name will only be in the globe once, but a 13-year-old will have two slips of paper, a 14-year-old three, and so on. For another, the Hunger Games are weighted toward the poor. A clutch of new posters have been released teasing the various denizens of the Capitol. Scroll through the following to discover Blyth's Snow and Zegler's Baird. The primary antagonist is set to be Dr. Volumnia Gaul, portrayed by Oscar-winner Viola Davis. She's the head game-maker of the 10th Hunger Games and also presides over the creation of the Capitol's experimental weapons division, including theterrifying 'muttations'. Following the anti-militarism theme Collins developed over the series, the posters promoting the Capitol’s agenda don’t look much different from those promoting the rebel cause: But more than that, what I like about my poster is that it reminds me that the medium is always the message. The girl who burned The first color on this palette, Primrose, is named for the main character’s little sister, who is killed by a bomb set by her own forces. Image: LA Splash Cosmetics.comFrom my work-from-home desk, I only have to turn my head to look at my poster, featuring an image that never would have shown up on a glossy, PR-managed Tumblr. It’s not a message for Capitol citizens, after all; it’s a reminder to the other districts. Your children are never completely safe — but if you work for us, and other people don’t, you can make them safer than those other people’s children. Of course, there will be no sign of Lawrence's tenacious Katniss Everdeen in this particular story, given it's set 65 years in the past. The official synopsis is as follows:

The Hunger Games (2012) - Posters - The Movie Database (TMDB)

Taking the place of Jennifer Lawrence's Katniss Everdeen in The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes is Zegler's Lucy. Lucy is a tribute from District 12, who is paired with Snow as her mentor, and trailers have made clear that she is not as skilled a warrior as Katniss was. As the Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes trailer reveals, this is very much Snow's story as well, with the film chronicling his budding romance with Lucy and how he ultimately becomes a ruthless dictator. I also liked the way some posters played with color and texture. The Hunger Games: Catching Fire had a series of portrait posters: And that’s what I like about my poster: It reminds me that the Hunger Games books were subtler and more complex than they might seem today, based on the conversations they sparked. Especially after they became megalithic: after imitators flooded YA publishing, and after the dominant online discourse around them — other than talking about the movies — focused in on how annoying Katniss’ first-person narration is. With tesserae, Collins didn’t have to say that the Capitol’s culling is weighted toward workers who produce the least for elite consumption, not in so many words. She didn’t have to directly explain that the Hunger Games were designed to display the Capitol’s dominance over the districts, but the tesserae system was designed to perpetuate class divides within the districts themselves. She simply built her setting in line with the universal truth: When rain is falling everywhere, there’s a reason some people get wetter than others.BE RESPONSIBLE — FEED YOUR FAMILY — YOUTHS 12-18 MUST ENTER THE LOTTERY FOR THE REAPING — NO EXCEPTIONS — ON PENALTY OF DEATH It's pretty easy to understand everything about this story and its world. We get to know most of it and the entire film is intriguing and undeniably entertaining. The cast brings most of it to life. Jennifer Lawrence is simply fantastic as Katniss. Josh Hutcherson is okay but does not tie with Lawrence. Woody Harrelson, Elizabeth Banks, Wes Bentley, Donald Sutherland, and Stanley Tucci didn't get a lot of screen time but they were good to their roles.

Because it reminds me that you can’t judge a book by its online discourse or its movie adaptation — there’s more Lord of the Rings in the story of the Hunger Games than there is Harry Potter. Let’s talk tesserae Photo: Susana Polo/PolygonKatniss Everdeen voluntarily takes her younger sister's place in the Hunger Games: a televised competition in which two teenagers from each of the twelve Districts of Panem are chosen at random to fight to the death. All Titles Character posters for The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes show the prequel's characters wearing fancy attire fit for the Capitol. This is a ghoulish little detail that’s absent from the Hunger Games movies, and easy to miss in the books. In Panem, if a family finds itself without means — the examples we see firsthand are widowed and disabled parents — its children can sign up for a “tessera,” or a year’s starvation rations for one person. Children can sign up each year they’re eligible for the Hunger Games, and each year, they can sign up for as many tesserae as they have family members.
