The sixth Hunger Games movie is on its way to theaters toward the end of the month. Sunrise on the Reaping is slated for release on Nov. 20, 2026, and while you may be getting ready for that, you’ll also want to watch it at home.
The second prequel tells the story of Haymitch Abernathy during the 50th Hunger Games. The second Quarter Quell saw double the number of tributes, and it ended with the second victory for District 12. However, victory doesn’t mean happiness, and it’s time to see why Haymitch closed in on himself after such a win.
Where Will ‘Sunrise on the Reaping’ Stream Online?
Like all movies that head to theaters now, Sunrise on the Reaping will head to a streaming platform. As a Lionsgate movie, there is one Pay-1 home: Starz. While the two went their separate ways in terms of production and TV shows, they struck a deal for theatrical releases.
When Will the Sixth ‘Hunger Games’ Movie Join Starz?
It’s taken around four months for movies to go from theaters to Starz, though. The Strangers — Chapter 3 was released in theaters in February and joined Starz in mid-June. So, we’re looking at around March 20, 2027 for Sunrise on the Reaping to head to the streaming platform.
In 2026, Lionsgate negotiated a new Pay-2 window with Amazon. Now, movies will head to Prime Video after a stint on Starz rather than on Peacock. The details of this window haven’t been confirmed, so the best option is to watch on Starz as soon as it’s added.
What Is ‘Sunrise on the Reaping’ About?
Based on Suzanne Collins‘ book of the same name, the second prequel story follows Haymitch and is set 24 years before the first Hunger Games novel. Joseph Zada plays a 16-year-old Haymitch — his birthday is on the day of the reaping! — and shows how he was even picked to be part of the 50th Hunger Games. Spoiler: he’s not reaped the old-fashioned way, and he definitely doesn’t volunteer.
With twice the number of tributes from each district, the televised event brings death, betrayals, and heartbreak. There are many characters people will recognize from previous stories, including President Snow (Ralph Fiennes), Plutarch Heavensbee (Jesse Plemons), Effie Trinket (Elle Fanning), and Caesar Flickerman (Kieran Culkin). It’s also worth looking out for Wiress (Maya Hawke), Beetee Latier (Kelvin Harrison Jr.), and Mags Flanagan (Lili Taylor).
Will Jennifer Lawrence Return for ‘The Hunger Games’ Prequel?
Jennifer Lawrence has confirmed that she will return as Katniss Everdeen in the upcoming prequel, along with Josh Hutcherson and Woody Harrelson as Peeta Mellark and the present-day Haymitch. Don’t expect to see Rachel Zegler return as Lucy Gray Baird, as while the character is mentioned, she isn’t seen in the book.
