Jennifer Lawrence has confirmed she is back as Katniss Everdeen in "The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping," saying the reunion with her co-stars was "so emotional." She spoke on the Oct. 28 episode of the "Call Her Daddy" podcast, her first public comments on reprising the role after 11 years. She called the experience "unbelievable."
Lawrence said it was the same crew, and she singled out Josh Hutcherson, who plays Peeta Mellark.
Is Woody Harrelson back too? Her comments suggest he returns as Haymitch Abernathy. The studio had not officially confirmed it, though Harrelson voiced an early teaser trailer.
How big is the Katniss role? Probably small. Based on the source novel, the return is likely brief. The book's epilogue shows an older Haymitch talking to Katniss and Peeta about his past. The film itself centers on a young Haymitch, played by Joseph Zada, in the 50th Hunger Games.
When can you see it? The film opens Nov. 20, with early-access screenings starting Nov. 18 in select premium formats. Tickets went on sale Wednesday, Oct. 28. It is rated PG-13, and parents may want to check content details before buying for younger viewers.
