The lengthy experience was briefly considered to be split apart.

The Hunger Games prequel novel The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes is the longest book in the series, which means that the movie adaptation earned the longest run time in the franchise. The amount of material The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes covers is so dense, in fact, that director Francis Lawrence briefly toyed with the idea of breaking up the material into two films.

Franchise producer Nina Jacobson added,"The length was daunting," though admitted that the story"really goes by so fast." When the Mockingjay films were released, it was part of a trend of YA adaptations, as the final Harry Potter story and final Twilight story were both broken up into two parts. The filmmaker even expressed his regret over breaking up the story, or at least including something of a cliffhanger at the end of Mockingjay – Part 1.
