The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes takes us again greater than six a long time earlier than Katniss Everdeen fought in her first Starvation Video games, and as we see within the first trailer launched on Thursday night, the filmmakers gave the movie a really retro look certainly.
The artwork type of the movie, which tells the story of the long run President Snow mentoring a Starvation Video games contestant when he was a lot youthful, takes a tough flip from the retro-futuristic look of the unique 4 movies, draping the whole lot with an interesting early-to-mid twentieth Century aesthetic.
Try the trailer right here.
The trailer presents all the most important players–from Snow himself (Tom Blyth) to his mentee Lucy (Rachel Zegler), and on to Peter Dinklage’s Casca Highbottom, the sport’s creator and the extraordinary Dr. Gaul (Viola Davis). And we even bought to fulfill Fortunate Flickerman (Jason Schwartzman), presumably associated to Stanley Tucci’s Caesar Flickerman from the earlier films.
Whereas it is in any other case mild on plot, that new aesthetic ends in some fairly cool imagery. And the Starvation Video games themselves appear to happen in a smaller enviornment here–one that bears no resemblance to the luxurious jungle of the earlier films.
The Starvation Video games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes is directed by Francis Lawrence, who has dealt with directing duties on each Starvation Video games film besides the primary one. The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes hits theaters November 17.
