Hunger Games’ Lucy Gray May Have Connection To Mockingjay Character, Says Director

The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes director Francis Lawrence addresses theories regarding Lucy Gray, revealing that she could be connected to a Mockingjay character. Based on the book by author Suzanne Collins, the new prequel film takes place more than 60 years before the events of The Hunger Games, chronicling the doomed relationship between a young Coriolanus Snow (Tom Blyth) and Rachel Zegler’s Lucy Gray Baird. Lucy remains a somewhat mysterious character in Collins’ novel, and theories have long swirled over whether she is related to other characters from The Hunger Games universe.
