Lionsgate Announces New Hunger Games Movie Based on Suzanne Collins' Upcoming Novel 'The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping'

Lionsgate is developing a new Hunger Games movie based on Suzanne Collins' upcoming novel, The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping. The film, set in the Hunger Games universe and focusing on the 50th Hunger Games, also known as the Second Quarter Quell, will be released in November 2026. Francis Lawrence is in talks to direct.

Collins' new book is scheduled for release on March 18, 2025. The story takes place before the events of The Hunger Games and delves into themes of propaganda, control of narrative, and power dynamics in the world of Panem. Scottish Enlightenment philosopher David Hume served as an inspiration for Collins' latest work.

The Hunger Games franchise has inspired theme park attractions, experiences, and live events as well as other post-apocalyptic fiction movies like The Maze Runner and Divergent. Lionsgate previously adapted four books in the series into films that took in $3.3 billion at the box office.

The Second Quarter Quell is a significant event in the history of the Hunger Games, with its victor being Haymitch Abernathy from District 12. Jennifer Lawrence, Liam Hemsworth, and Elizabeth Banks starred in previous Hunger Games films directed by Francis Lawrence.

Lionsgate's Adam Fogelson announced the new film project on June 6, 2024. The studio previously released four adaptations of Collins' earlier books: The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, Mockingjay Part 1, and Mockingjay Part 2.

  • Fallacies (95%)
    The author makes several statements about the financial success of previous Hunger Games movies and the upcoming prequel. While these statements are factually accurate, they can be considered an appeal to authority fallacy if taken out of context. The author is implying that because the previous movies were successful, the upcoming prequel will also be successful. However, there is no guarantee that this will be the case.
    • The film opened an endless series of possibilities that Suzanne can go, and that [Lionsgate] can go with her.
    • It will start on the morning of the reaping of the 50th Hunger Games, also known as the Second Quarter Quell – in which Haymitch Abernathy, portrayed by Woody Harrelson in the original series, competed. Haymitch Abernathy later mentors Katniss and Peeta in the 74th Hunger Games.

    The article contains an appeal to authority fallacy when quoting Adam Fogelson's statement about Suzanne Collins being a 'master storyteller' and Lionsgate being 'fortunate' to work with her. This is not a logical reason for the quality of the upcoming book or film, but rather an expression of opinion and praise.
    • Adam Fogelson of Lionsgate said of the upcoming film: ‘Suzanne Collins is a master storyteller and our creative north star. We couldn’t be more fortunate than to be guided and trusted by a collaborator whose talent and imagination are so consistently brilliant.'

    The author makes an appeal to authority by citing David Hume as an inspiration for the new Hunger Games book. This is a valid use of authority and does not constitute a fallacy.
    • Inspired by an 18th-century Scottish philosopher and the modern scourge of misinformation, Suzanne Collins is returning to the ravaged, post-apocalyptic land of Panem for a new Hunger Games novel. “With Sunrise on the Reaping, I was inspired by David Hume’s idea of implicit submission and, in his words, ‘the easiness with which the many are governed by the few’,” Collins said in a statement.
