Every time she was about to call my name, I was like [while pounding her heart] \u2018Oh my god, she\u2019s gonna say my name. I\u2019m gonna have to go up there, I\u2019m gonna have to go up there.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Now, I\u2019ve read this book, and I know what happens in District 12 during the Reaping. Much like The Hunger Games<\/em>, when Katniss volunteers as tribute, the circumstances that lead to Haymitch, Maysilee and two more tributes going to the Capitol are intense and unforgettable. So, playing them out on screen had to have been surreal.<\/p>\nBy itself, that moment is intimidating, and it\u2019s the event that sends Grace’s character off to the games. However, the Reaping is also a major moment in almost every Hunger Games <\/em>story, so filming the latest one carries weight with it, too. Overall, I get why the Sunrise on the Reaping <\/em><\/u>cast <\/u><\/a>member was quick to name it when Thames asked about filming this movie.<\/p>\nNow, to see the scene McKenna Grace was referring to, as well as what happens during the 50th Hunger Games, you\u2019ll be able to catch Sunrise on the Reaping <\/em>in theaters on November 20, 2026. If you don\u2019t want to wait to see it, you can read the book the film is based on right now.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
