As if things weren’t difficult enough for Katniss and the survivors of The Hunger Games, now they have an all-out war to fight.

The latest teaser for The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1 arrived online this week (via Doritos) and the brief trailer for the highly anticipated sequel does a nice job of introducing all of the major players in the next chapter of the saga — including a bruised and battered Peeta (Josh Hutcherson). The footage also features some scenes with recently deceased actor Philip Seymour Hoffman in his role as Plutarch Heavensbee.

The third film in The Hunger Games franchise, Mockingjay – Part 1 finds Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence), Gale (Liam Hemsworth), Haymitch (Woody Harrelson), and various other residents of the long-subjugated districts fighting a war against President Snow (Donald Sutherland) and The Capitol. And if the trailer is to be believed, Katniss’ former friend (and occasional boyfriend) Peeta may have switched sides in the battle, too.

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1 hits theaters November 21, and along with the aforementioned actors, the film also stars Elizabeth Banks, Julianne Moore, Jeffrey Wright, Stanley Tucci, and other new and returning cast members.

How to watch the WWE Backlash France 2024 live stream
Logo for WWE Backlash France.

A WWE Premium Live Event (PLE) is heading to Lyon Metropolis for the first time for WWE Backlash France 2024. Since the formation of TKO in September 2023, WWE has prioritized global expansion. In 2024, Backlash France is the second PLE to be held outside the U.S., and it won't be the last. Five of the next six WWE PLEs will take place outside the U.S.

Heading into Backlash, WWE is entering the "American Nightmare Era." After finishing his story at WrestleMania 40, Cody Rhodes is now the Undisputed WWE Champion. A different era means a new crop of challengers for Rhodes. First up is AJ Styles, a former two-time WWE champion. Rhodes must bring his A-game if he wants to walk out of France as champion.

If you have to watch one Star Wars movie this May the 4th, stream this one
Luke looking off into the binary sunset before dying in The Last Jedi.

Every Star Wars fan has a favorite movie, and many Star Wars fans also hate at least one of the entries in one of their favorite franchises. That can make the exercise of choosing the perfect Star Wars movie to watch on May the 4th difficult. For all of the love this fan base has shown to the franchise over the years, it's also a fan base that has strong opinions about why one movie or another is worthy of your time.

This May 4, though, I'd recommend watching Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Almost undoubtedly the most controversial entry in the saga, one that makes some people furious and others jump for joy, The Last Jedi is worthy of your attention, whether you like what it's doing or not. Here are three reasons you should check it out:
