Blyth recently starred as Coriolanus Snow in The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, and is currently filming the dramas Discussion Materials, A Farewell to Arms, and Plainclothes. He currently stars as Billy the Kid in the MGM Plus series of the same name that follows the real-life story of the American outlaw who only lived to age 21.
