Sydney — Joseph Zada and McKenna Grace, the stars of the upcoming “The Hunger Games” instalment “The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping,” are heading to Sydney this month as part of the film’s promotional campaign.
Roadshow Films and Lionsgate announced Wednesday that the actors will visit Sydney on Wednesday, October 14th.
Grace previously spoke highly of Zada, who was born in Sydney and portrays Haymitch Abernathy in the new “Hunger Games” film, during an interview with Variety Australia earlier this year.
“He’s one of the most talented actors I’ve ever worked with,” Grace said. “He’s genuinely about to become one of the biggest stars ever. I’m so excited for everybody to watch him perform.”
Grace also urged audiences to brace themselves for an emotional experience when they see “Sunrise on the Reaping,” describing the film as deeply heartbreaking.
“It’s gonna be really, really sad. I keep reminding everybody how sad it’s going to be,” she said. “Lots of tears, lots of drama, but it’s going to be beautiful.”
Directed by Francis Lawrence, “Sunrise on the Reaping” features an ensemble cast that also includes Elle Fanning, Ralph Fiennes, Maya Hawke, Jesse Plemons, Glenn Close, Kieran Culkin, Whitney Peak and Billy Porter.
