I’ve waited my complete life to speak about this – or, actually, the final three months, however it feels like a lifetime.
In the event you’re like me, you are most likely a fan of The Hunger Games motion pictures, which implies you could be a fan of the books – and that additionally most likely means you preferred Sunrise on the Reaping and cried about as a lot as I did on the ending. Let’s be actual; we have all been there.
And, with the unbelievable solid updates of Sunrise on the Reaping for the upcoming book-to-screen adaptation, it simply retains me considering time and again about what I wish to see from this movie. Sunrise on the Reaping is without doubt one of the greatest Hunger Games books, and there may be a lot going for it. So, there are a number of scenes from it that I have to see within the movie adaptation.
Don’t learn any additional if you have not learn the books! There are main spoilers from Sunrise on the Reaping.
Louella’s Loss of life In All Its Glory
Whereas Sunrise on the Reaping might be a part of the 2026 film launch schedule, and we’ll have loads of time to organize for this mentally, I do not assume we’ll ever actually be prepared for Louella’s loss of life.
I nonetheless keep in mind the second I learn it – I was ready in an airport foyer for my flight out to California, and I needed to bodily take a lap across the airport as a result of I was so shocked. It had the identical emotional affect as Rue within the first e book.
We had been, like, six chapters in. I want that to be solely carried out in its glory within the film. I don’t desire it toned down as a result of she’s a toddler. I need it uncooked.
I wish to really feel as deliciously betrayed as I did studying it, as a result of I thought we had been going to get a lot extra of her, after which she was ripped from my fingertips. If that is not carried out properly within the film, I’m undecided I’ll be capable of survive.
Lenore Dove’s Demise And Her Relation To Lucy Grey Baird When She’s Buried
Lenore Dove’s loss of life in Sunrise on the Reaping is a heartbreaker for certain – contemplating that is all Haymitch fought for throughout the entirety of the sport, just for it to be ripped away from him. I’m certain we will see her die in the identical painful manner. I assume youthful Haymitch actor Joseph Zada will knock it out of the park.
Nonetheless, the extra urgent situation I wish to be addressed is the connection to Lucy Grey. As somebody who actually simply watched The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes for the primary time, I would like to see the connection between them explored in some way in her loss of life, as a result of we all know from the books that they’re associated (which truthfully makes a lot sense with Lenore’s persona). We would even get extra solutions about Lucy indirectly.
Older Haymitch And His Time With Katniss
Whereas I doubt Woody Harrelson will return to play an older Haymitch, a lady can dream of getting a fantastic epilogue for him.
As we all know and anticipated, after he loses Lenore, Haymitch shortly deteriorates into the drunk that we meet in The Hunger Games motion pictures. However, after the revolution, he “drinks” till the liquor runs out and raises geese within the meantime. He did not understand how for much longer he had on this world, however what we do know is that he not less than shared a while with Katniss after the primary story of the franchise.
It was clear that he cared deeply for her, and seeing this from Haymitch’s perspective can be a superb option to deliver the story full circle.
With the casting bulletins out and filming set to start quickly, I’m desperate to study extra about this adaptation. It is time for a re-read.
