He leaves a note with three words, “Protect Her. HH,” referring to her stepdaughter, Bailey. Hannah soon discovers dark secrets that place both of their lives in danger.

Francis Lawrence returns to direct the next Hunger Games movie based on Suzanne Collins’s prequel novel. Taking the story from Michael Lesslie and Michael Arndt’s screenplay, Lawrence helms the story that began 64 years ago. It was before Katniss Everdeen volunteered as a tribute. And decades before Coriolanus Snow became the authoritarian President of Panem.

But after Lucy Gray’s charm captivates the audience of Panem, Snow sees an opportunity to shift their fates. He becomes infatuated with Lucy Gray and helps her prepare for the Tenth Annual Hunger Games. He helps her develop a public image and hone her skills to win.
Yet, all does not appear picture-perfect because Coriolanus and Lucy Gray become entangled in personal ambition and political intrigue.
With everything he has worked for hanging in the balance, Snow unites with Lucy Gray to turn the odds in their favor.
Battling his instincts for both good and evil, Snow sets out on a race against time to survive and reveals if he will ultimately become a songbird or a snake.

Based on a classic fairy tale by the talented Hans Christian Andersen, The Little Mermaid (Live-Action Movie) arrives as a live-action adaptation of the 1989 animated film by Disney Studios.
Rob Marshall directs the story that follows Ariel, played by Halle Bailey, a young mermaid who dreams of living on land and going through life as a human.
Ariel makes a bargain with the evil sea witch Ursula, played by Melissa McCarthy, and trades her lovely voice for a chance to live as a human, walking with two feet and legs on land. There is a catch, which makes the story interesting. Ariel must win the love of Prince Eric, played by Jonah Hauer-King, in three days to make the human transformation permanent.
All is not so easy because Ursula connives to create challenges that even Ariel doesn’t understand. Living on land is new to her, but she adjusts and tries to win Eric’s heart.
The movie has songs from the original animated film and some new ones to keep the redundancy at bay.
