The Hunger Games is a film series based on novels by American writer Suzanne Collins. It is set in Panem, a future society where the powerful Capitol rules over poorer districts and forces young people to compete in a televised fight to the death called the Hunger Games. The first four films follow Katniss Everdeen, played by Jennifer Lawrence, as she is drawn into the Games and the conflict around them.
The series also includes The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, a prequel set decades earlier. Sunrise on the Reaping is another prequel, based on Collins’ novel about Haymitch Abernathy’s experience in the 50th Hunger Games, 24 years before Katniss’s story. Haymitch is played as a younger character by Joseph Zada.
