More about the dystopian franchise

The first movie of the series, titled The Hunger Games (2012), introduced us to Katniss Everdeen, played by Jennifer Lawrence, who volunteers to take her sister’s place in the deadly Hunger Games, where one of twenty-four participants gets out with their life and as the winner. The skill and determination Katniss showed in the game made her a symbol of hope for the oppressed districts.

In the following movie, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (2013), we see that after winning the 74th Hunger Games, Katniss and Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson) become the new targets of the Capitol and the vengeful President Snow plans the 75th Hunger Games to eliminate them as he fears their growing influence. This film gives us a wider picture of the political unrest and rebellion in Panem.

The third part of the franchise, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 (2014), explores the rebellion against the Capitol as it intensifies, with Katniss becoming the face of the revolution. As she navigates her role as the Mockingjay while dealing with the complexities of war and propaganda, the film ends by setting the stage for the final battle. The final part of the series, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 2 (2015), follows Katniss and her allies who confront President Snow for a final showdown, bringing the epic saga to an emotional close.


Catch The Hunger Games on Netflix before it bids adieu from the streaming platform this Saturday, June 1, 2024, and gear up for new releases like the new season of Bridgerton, Jerry Seinfeld's Unfrosted, and John Mulaney's live comedy series, which are coming in June 2024.
