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 model of the movie, which tells the story of the longer term 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 every little thing with a captivating early-to-mid twentieth Century aesthetic.
Take a look at the trailer right here.
The trailer presents all the main 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 motion pictures.
Whereas it is in any other case gentle on plot, that new aesthetic leads to 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 plush jungle of the earlier motion pictures.
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.
