Rachel Zegler proved she can put asses in seats as the lead of the new ‘Hunger Games’ prequel.
Rachel Zegler has been a lightning rod of late — but the fact her latest movie just came in at #1 says a lot … including the fact people apparently want more ‘Hunger Games.’
The actress plays the lead in the new prequel, « The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, » which took the top spot at the box office this weekend with a $44 mil haul domestically … and about $99 million worldwide. That’s pretty good, considering the budget was a clean $100M.
Granted, it didn’t perform as well as all of Jennifer Lawrence’s previous installments — but considering she ain’t in this one, not to mention the stiff competition, this result isn’t bad.
