Fans of Suzanne Collins' famous The Hunger Games series are rejoicing at the news that her latest book, 2025’s The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping, will be adapted and released in cinemas this year. Despite being a prequel, there are a few key details from the earlier films that will improve your viewing experience of Sunrise on the Reaping when it releases this November.
Below, we've simplified things and broken down where you can stream every film in the Hunger Games series so far and even how to score cheaper subscriptions to these services.
How to watch all The Hunger Games movie in Australia
There are currently five films in the Hunger Games franchise available to stream. They are all available on several streaming services, mostly appearing on Stan, Netflix and HBO Max. Amazon Prime Video subscribers can watch a few of the films, but it is frustratingly missing Mockingjay - Part 1 and The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes. Here's a handy breakdown of where to stream each film:

What are The Hunger Games movies about?
The Hunger Games is a series of films based on novels set in a dystopian world called Panem. Panem is divided into 12 distinct 'districts', each with a specific focus, for example, agriculture, mining, defence, etc.
After a rebellion broke out and several districts waged war against The Capitol, a brutal idea was born to keep the other districts in line: The Hunger Games.
Each year, one boy and one girl between the ages of 12 and 18 are 'reaped', conscripted to fight for their lives in a man-made arena run by The Capitol until only one surviving 'victor' remains.
The first four films follow the boy and girl reaped from District 12, Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) and Peeta Mallark (Josh Hutcherson), to compete in the 74th annual Hunger Games. Without spoiling anything, their involvement in the games makes up the first film, then the subsequent events following the games makes up the next three films (Catching Fire, Mockingjay - Part 1 and Mockingjay - Part 2).
Finally, the fifth film in the franchise, A Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, is actually a prequel. It recounts the story of an 18-year-old Coriolanus Snow, the President of Panem in the first four films, and his relationship with Lucy Grey Baird, a young woman from District 12 whom he is tasked with mentoring in the 10th Hunger Games.

Editor's pick: Great NBN 50 and NBN 100 plans for streaming
Streaming TV and movies on your home internet can use up a lot of data. That's why we recommend getting an NBN plan with unlimited data. Preferably an NBN 50 plan or faster to account for streaming speed needs.
Most internet plans these days are unlimited, so that's not an issue. As for speed, it's true that NBN 50 plans will get most households by. But NBN 100 plans can be similar in price to NBN 50 plans.
This is certainly the case for the fist six months, which most providers offer discounted pricing for. The cost differences between NBN 50 and NBN 100 can become larger after that six-month discount period ends, however.
There are loads of plans like this in our database, covering all budgets. Here are just a few:
