For Lucy Gray, the studio teases, \"[A]fter she grabs Panem's attention by defiantly singing during the reaping ceremony, Snow thinks he might be able to 'turn the odds in their favor.'\"

The synopsis continues, \"Uniting their instincts for showmanship and newfound political savvy, Snow and Lucy Gray's race against time to survive will ultimately reveal who is a songbird, and who is a snake.\"

Lucy Gray appears as the film's moral compass. \"There's natural goodness built into us all,\" she says in the trailer. \"We can step across that line into evil, or not.\"

The trailer also shows Jason Schwartzman preening as \"Lucky\" Flickerman, the predecessor of Stanley Tucci's host Caesar Flickerman from the original movies.

Francis Lawrence, who directed the last three films in the series, returns to direct \"The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes,\" which debuts in theaters worldwide on Nov. 17.
