The Hunger Games franchise is making a comeback with The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, a prequel set 63 years before the original film. While fans eagerly anticipate this new installment, many wonder if any familiar faces from the previous movies will make an appearance.

Despite the anticipation for a great prequel, the burning question remains: Will there be any cameos from the original stars? It appears unlikely. The narrative, set over six decades earlier, features characters who haven’t been born yet during the events of the first Hunger Games movie. With a new cast, including Tomy Blyth as young Snow, Rachel Zegler as Lucy, and Josh Andres Rivera as Snow’s friend Senjanus, the movie marks a fresh start.

While there are some connections to the earlier films, such as Hunter Schafer as Tigris Snow and Jason Schwartzman as Lucky Flickerman, the majority of the cast comprises new faces. Notable names like Peter Dinklage, Viola Davis, and Jason Schwartzman bring their talents to characters integral to the Games’ creation.

With Tom Blyth portraying the evolution of Snow, Rachel Zegler as Lucy Gray Baird, and a star-studded ensemble, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes promises to be a compelling addition to The Hunger Games saga.
