Sydney-born actor Joseph Zada will play a 16-year-old Haymitch in the Sunrise on the Reaping film adaptation. American actress Whitney Peak (Gossip Girl, Hocus Pocus 2) will star alongside Zada as Haymitch’s girlfriend Lenore Dove Baird.
Set for release in November 2026, Sunrise on the Reaping will be the sixth film in the dystopian fantasy franchise. Based on the bestselling novel of the same name, published in March, it explores Haymitch’s time in the “Hunger Games”, a televised fight to the death. Haymitch was introduced in the original trilogy as Katniss Everdeen’s alcoholic mentor and was played by Woody Harrelson.
Following the cast announcement, producer Nina Jacobson said the team oversaw “an exhaustive and exhausting” search to find “a young actor with the skill and imagination to embody young Haymitch”.
“Jo [Zada] prepared like crazy and stole our hearts,” she said. “Then Whitney took our breath away as Lenore Dove. When we put the two of them together, it was one of those magical casting moments when you know your search has led you home.”
