True to its main theme, Hunger Games is the last survivor of the dystopian sagas of the 2010 years. If the universe imagined by Suzanne Collins still manages to captivate readers and spectators, it is above all thanks to the depth of her story that her characters that mark us for life. It is also at one of the icons of the original trilogy that the American author dedicates her last story, released in French bookstores on March 20. Hunger Games: sunrise on the harvest Tells Haymitch’s tragic journey on the occasion of the 50th edition of the Games.
If you are not very reading but it burns to learn more about the mentor of Katniss and Peeta, do not panic. The cinematographic adaptation is already on the way! This was also announced at the same time as the novel, confirming once and for all thatHunger Games No longer needs to prove yourself. At that time, we learned that the film planned to enter the cinema on November 20, 2026: and these plans did not change. The production company Lionsgate took advantage of the Cinemacon 2025 to broadcast a first teaser and give some news of the project.

A casting in the continuity of the first films
Less than two years separate us from the release date referred to by Lionsgate but no official information concerning the casting or the launch of the shooting had been shared until then. The probability that the feature could be released in time seemed to be lower and the production company is finally decided to reply. More concerns to have: The cast is indeed in progress and the shooting will start next July.
At the end of March, the producer of the franchise Nina Jacobson said they were looking for an actor “Who does not imitate Woody Harrelson (the interpreter of Haymitch in the films, editor’s note)“But rather someone”Capable of transcribing this younger version of the character, before the trauma and the mourning that the Hunger Games made him suffer“So that means that the young actor’s physique will remain faithful to the cinematic version of Haymitch, and not to that of books, however very different.
Production side, Francis Lawrence will return to the realization – after taking care of the films The conflagration, the revolt part 1 and 2 as well as The snake and singer bird ride – while The writing of the script was entrusted to Billy Ray, informs us Variety. This name may not mention anything to you, but this is an important figure in the success ofHunger Games in the cinema. It was to this American screenwriter and director that the adaptation of the history of the first novel had been entrusted.
His presence for Sunrise on the harvest is far from harmless, since this prequel connects many elements of the original trilogy, which he himself changed the bases for the big screen. Its most blatant and controversial change resided at the time in the origin of Katniss spindle, and this is likely to be a problem today. This object plays a key role in the development of certain characters from the prequel and we will therefore have to find a way to connect everything. It is up to me to repair his stupidity!
