Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Fans want Drew Starkey to play role of young Haymitch Abernathy in SUNRISE ON THE REAPING 2025.
A film adaptation of new upcoming ‘HUNGER GAMES’ book ‘SUNRISE ON THE REAPING’ is officially in the works at Lionsgate.
It takes place during the Second Quarter Quell, won by Haymitch Abernathy.
In theaters November 20, 2026.
With the recent expansion of The Hunger Games franchise, social media users have expressed interest in another prequel book/film that would take place during Haymitch’s Games, which would require a recasting with a younger actor. Woody Harrelson is such a vital part of The Hunger Games franchise, that it can be hard to imagine someone else stepping into the role, but there are plenty of actors who could take on the challenge. With Mockingjay’s happy ending, there is no need for a sequel. However, there are many potential Hunger Games prequels, including one about the 50th Hunger Games where Haymich was named the victor.
