We asked Francis Lawrence what stories from The Hunger Games universe he'd like to tackle next.
The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes is heading to theaters this month, and it's based on Suzanne Collins' book of the same name. Every film from the series has been adapted from her stories, which has some fans wondering if she plans to write more. The new film follows 18-year-old Coriolanus Snow before he becomes the tyrannical president of Panem, which means the story takes place 64 years before The Hunger Games. ComicBook.
"I don't know," Lawrence began."I think what I've always been interested in is the way that Suzanne writes from a thematic foundation. The original series is about consequence of war, many facets of those themes. This really is about the sort of 'state of nature' debate.
During our chat with Lawrence, the director also talked about adapting the longest book in Collins' best-selling franchise. "I don't think it was really anything that we fought to keep in," Lawrence shared."I think the trick was figuring out how to keep as much of the information in the story as possible, but we had to compress it because this is the longest book in the series. And so making sure that we can get it down to a feature-length, that was just the tricky part.
The movie will also include Fionnula Flanagan as Grandma'am, young Coriolanus Snow's grandmother. Isobel Jesper Jones is playing Mayfair Lipp, the daughter of the mayor of District 12. Honor Gillies will be making her professional acting debut as Barb Azure.
