Rachel Zegler Reveals 1 Snow & Lucy Gray Scene In Ballad Of Songbird & Snakes’ Final Act Was Improvised

A major scene at the end of The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes was improvised. An adaptation of Suzanne Collins’ Hunger Games prequel, the movie follows the rise of Coriolanus Snow (Tom Blyth) as he eventually ascends to become the president of Panem. The movie also serves as somewhat of a love story between District 12 tribute Lucy Gray Baird (Rachel Zegler) and Snow, as both struggle with the burden of the Hunger Games. Their story ends tragically, however, as Lucy Gray escapes Snow’s ever-tightening hold over her.
