Where to watch The Hunger Games movies

Eleven years ago, The Hunger Games made its highly anticipated debut in theaters. The dystopian adventure depicted the titular brutal fight to the death. Representatives, also known as tributes, from each of the 12 Districts compete in this televised competition as a way to keep the peace in the nation of Panem. Katniss Everdeen (Causeway’s Jennifer Lawrence) volunteers to take the place of her sister in District 12. Along with fellow District 12 tribute Peeta Mellark (The Disaster Artist’s Josh Hutcherson), Katniss battles to stay alive and, in the process, fights to take down the system that created the games.

Based on the book series by Suzanne Collins, The Hunger Games spawned three sequels: The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1, and The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2. The franchise was successful, both critically and commercially, and eventually grossed a combined $2.97 billion worldwide. A prequel, The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, is set to come out in late 2023.
