Hunger Games Prequel Secures SAG-AFTRA Interim Agreement

United States of America
The Hunger Games prequel, `The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes`, has secured an interim agreement with SAG-AFTRA.
The interim agreement comes after a `Do Not Work` order was issued due to Lionsgate's decision to produce the film under a non-union contract.
The prequel is based on the novel by Suzanne Collins and is set 64 years before the events of the original Hunger Games trilogy.

The prequel to the popular Hunger Games series, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, has secured an interim agreement with the Screen Actors Guild - American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA). This development comes after the union had previously issued a Do Not Work order for the project, citing issues with Lionsgate, the studio behind the film. The interim agreement allows SAG-AFTRA members to resume work on the film.

The Do Not Work order was initially issued due to Lionsgate's decision to produce the film under a non-union contract. This decision was met with backlash from the union, leading to the issuance of the order. The interim agreement marks a significant step forward for the production of the film, which had been halted due to the dispute.

The prequel, based on the novel by Suzanne Collins, is set 64 years before the events of the original Hunger Games trilogy. It follows the story of young Coriolanus Snow, who is later known as the tyrannical president of Panem. The film is expected to delve into the character's backstory and the early days of the Hunger Games.

The resolution of the dispute and the signing of the interim agreement is a significant development for the film industry, demonstrating the power of union action and the importance of fair working conditions for actors. It also allows for the continuation of a highly anticipated project, bringing fans of the Hunger Games series one step closer to seeing the prequel on the big screen.
