Lionsgate has announced that participating U.S. theaters will offer early screenings of The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping on November 18, starting at 6 p.m. local time. Tickets for both those screenings and the regular theatrical run become available October 28.
The early showings precede the November 20 nationwide release by two days. Available formats will vary by theater and include ScreenX, IMAX, AMC Prime, Dolby Cinema, Regal RPX, 4DX and Cinemark XD. Only select locations will host the advance screenings.
Francis Lawrence directs the movie, which follows Haymitch Abernathy through the 50th Hunger Games, known as the Second Quarter Quell. Its story is set 24 years before the original Hunger Games story. Joseph Zada plays the younger Haymitch, a role Woody Harrelson portrayed in the original films.
Mckenna Grace plays District 12 tribute Maysilee Donner, while Whitney Peak appears as Haymitch’s girlfriend, Lenore Dove Baird. The three actors greeted fans outside the Today show studios in New York City on October 26 during their press tour. Peak posed for pictures and signed autographs, with Zada and Grace also joining fans.
