We’re happy to offer our DC readers the chance to attend a free early screening of The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes! The prequel stars Tom Blyth, Rachel Zegler, Peter Dinklage, Hunter Schafer, Josh Andrés Rivera, Jason Schwartzman, and Viola Davis.

SYNOPSIS: Experience the story of THE HUNGER GAMES — 64 years before Katniss Everdeen volunteered as tribute, and decades before Coriolanus Snow became the tyrannical President of Panem. THE HUNGER GAMES: THE BALLAD OF SONGBIRDS & SNAKES follows a young Coriolanus (Tom Blyth) who is the last hope for his failing lineage, the once-proud Snow family that has fallen from grace in a post-war Capitol. With his livelihood threatened, Snow is reluctantly assigned to mentor Lucy Gray Baird (Rachel Zegler), a tribute from the impoverished District 12. But after Lucy Gray’s charm captivates the audience of Panem, Snow sees an opportunity to shift their fates. With everything he has worked for hanging in the balance, Snow unites with Lucy Gray to turn the odds in their favor. Battling his instincts for both good and evil, Snow sets out on a race against time to survive and reveal if he will ultimately become a songbird or a snake.

The screening takes place on Tuesday, November 14th at 7:00pm at Regal Majestic. If you’d like to attend, RSVP at the Lionsgate site here. Please remember all screenings are first come first served and you’ll need to arrive early to ensure seating. May the odds be ever in your favor!

The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes opens in theaters November 17th.
