Jason Schwartzman has joined ‘The Hunger Games’ prequel — in the perfect role

Yet another star has boarded the much-anticipated Hunger Games prequel movie. Based on author Suzanne Collins’ 2020 novel of the same name, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes is set to relaunch the YA dystopian franchise, formerly headed by Jennifer Lawrence, in a big way. And while there might be a Katniss Everdeen-sized hole in the film, Lionsgate is hoping to fill it with an abundance of familiar names and upcoming faces.

The latest to volunteer themselves as tribute is Jason Schwartzman (Scott Pilgrim vs. the World). As per The Hollywood Reporter, the Fargo alum has been cast as Lucretius “Lucky” Flickerman. That last name should be familiar to Hunger Games fans as Lucky is the ancestor of Panem’s favorite talk show host, Caesar Flickerman, memorably played by Stanley Tucci in the original four films.
