Undoubtedly, Jennifer Lawrence’s character in the film epic ‘Hunger Games’ catapulted her to fame and with her character ‘Katniss Everdeen’ she won the hearts of the world, establishing herself as one of Hollywood’s best film actresses.
That’s why since the announcement came out along with the new poster for Suzanne Collins’ live-action books, many fans have been wondering where Jennifer has been? And here we reveal the secret to you.
Why Jennifer Lawrence Won’t Appear in the New ‘Hunger Games’ Movie?
The new movie of this story: The Hunger Games: Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes’ it’s a prequelwhich takes place 49 years before ‘Katniss’ was born, so there’s no way ‘The Girl on Fire’ would appear in said story.
However, there have been rumors that Lawrence could play one of her great-grandmothers (Lucy Gray Baird or Maude Ivory Baird) in a supporting role, just making a cameo to please her fans, although nothing has been officially said. Some consider a Jennifer appearance to be “too soon” after “Mockingjay (part 2).”
Let’s also remember that in this last film “Katniss” had her happy ending, a completely round-the-clock thing that left nothing to go on, except a quiet life with “Pieta” and her children.
Jennifer Lawrence set to return to ‘The Hunger Games’
Despite this, the Oscar winner has told Variety that she is open to returning to the franchise that made her a star: “Oh my God, absolutely! If ‘Katniss’ could ever come back into my life, I 100 percent want it“, he emphasized.
What will we see in the new movie?
This plot stars the person who made “Everdeen” and the rest of the regions suffer so much in the previous installments: “Coriolanus Snow”, from whom we will discover “the origin of his evil” and how this horror game was born that it’s called ‘The Hunger Games’.
He will be the protagonist in this installment ‘Lucy Gray’ (Rachel Zegler), a young woman who captivates Panem with her brave musical performance at the selection ceremony that will earn her a very unique nickname.
The characters will fight against time to survive, combining their talent with their political skills, as we have seen before. The film will explore who are posing as the ‘songbirds’ and show who the ‘snakes’ are in this deadly game.
When does it premiere?
This new movie, “The Hunger Games: Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes,” will hit theaters on November 17, 2023 and many of the fans of these books and movies are already impatient for the date to arrive.
