The first Hunger Games movie is a cult favorite led by Jennifer Lawrence's iconic performance and a talented supporting cast including Jack Quaid.
Since its release in 2012, the Hunger Games cast has gone on to more success in other movie and television roles thanks to the boost that the YA adaptation gave to their careers. Based on the novels by Suzanne Collins, the Hunger Games movies consist of four main installments plus a prequel out in 2023. Before movies like Allegiant signaled a decline in the YA craze, The Hunger Games contributed greatly to the popularity of the teen-centric dystopian sci-fi subculture in the 2010s.
In the 2020s, following a few career missteps with critically panned movies such as Passengers and Red Sparrow, Lawrence returned to more prestigious fare with the Oscar-nominated streaming movies Don't Look Up and Causeway. While neither earned the actress a nomination, her performances in both movies received rave reviews.

The kind-hearted tribute loves singing, and some of her melodies allow her to become friends with birds.
