About
Twenty-four years before The Hunger Games, sixteen-year-old Haymitch Abernathy is selected for the 50th Hunger Games, where districts send twice as many tributes.
The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping is set in Panem 24 years before The Hunger Games. It begins on the morning of the reaping for the 50th Hunger Games, the Second Quarter Quell. Sixteen-year-old Haymitch Abernathy, played by Joseph Zada and from District 12, is selected to compete. For this Quarter Quell, every district must send twice the usual number of tributes, who will fight to the death in a televised spectacle.
Haymitch forms an unexpected alliance with fellow tribute Maysilee Donner, played by Mckenna Grace. Ralph Fiennes plays President Coriolanus Snow, and Jesse Plemons plays Plutarch Heavensbee.
