The Hunger Games fans can stream all four movies for free ahead of huge prequel release

The Hunger Games fans are in for a treat as they will soon be able to enjoy a free marathon of all four films before the next prequel hits the big screen.

The Hunger Games, based on Suzanne Collins' best-selling novel series, was transformed into a blockbuster franchise in 2012 and has since become one of the world's most successful film franchises.

Set centuries into the future, the books and films take place in the post-apocalyptic nation of Panem, under the control of the Capitol.

Each year, the Capitol forces each district to participate in a brutal tournament, sending a boy and girl to partake in a televised battle where they fight to the death until only one victor remains.

When Katniss Everdeen's (portrayed by Jennifer Lawrence) sister is selected for The Hunger Games, she volunteers to take her place.

Now, fans can watch all four films in a back-to-back marathon at no cost.

The original film, its sequel Catching Fire, and Mockingjay parts one and two, will be available to stream from 4.55pm on Sunday, July 27, via Pluto TV.

No subscription is required to watch this free content, with fans able to access it via the Pluto TV app or through a streaming service device like Roku or an Amazon Fire Stick.

This Hunger Games marathon comes as fans eagerly anticipate the next prequel in the franchise, set to premiere on November 20, 2026.

Back in 2024, it was revealed that the prequel Sunrise on the Reaping was under development, with Collins' novel hitting the shelves earlier this year.

The film is set to take place 24 years prior to the events of the original film, focusing on the 50th Hunger Games where Woody Harrelson's character Haymitch Abernathy took part.

Harrelson's younger version will be brought to life by actor Joseph Zada, who recently featured in the Prime Video thriller We Were Liars.

Joining him will be Gossip Girl's Whitney Peak, The Great actress Elle Fanning, Young Sheldon's McKenna Grace and Stranger Things star Maya Hawke.

All four films will be available for streaming consecutively on Pluto TV's complimentary Moviesphere channel from 4.55pm on Sunday, July 27.
