Lionsgate is eyeing a Hunger Games prequel movie as trilogy writer Suzanne Collins has a new novel set for release in May 2020.

"As the proud home of the Hunger Games movies, we can hardly wait for Suzanne’s next book to be published. We’ve been communicating with her during the writing process and we look forward to continuing to work closely with her on the movie,” Joe Drake, chairman of the Lionsgate Motion Picture Group, said Monday in a statement.

Scholastic plans to release a new Hunger Games novel next year, a prequel set 64 years before the start of the original Hunger Games novel series and timed for the reaping of the Tenth Hunger Games.

A Hunger Games prequel has long been talked about at Lionsgate as a possibility, and the studio earlier licensed the film property to theme parks and live concert tours being built around the movie franchise.

Are they seriously going to make future President Snow 'sympathetic' towards plebs from District 12? I hope that relationship, and his own family's problems, only nurtures his despisement of the working class. But I don't think they'll be able to make a whole movie centered on a 'bad' character, instead making him some kind of woke wussy, that only in the end a little bit starts to change for the worse...
 
Looks good but I am wondering who really wanted this to be a thing. Hopefully it's good and is worth it
