Maya Hawke Joins ‘The Hunger Games: Sunrise On The Reaping’ As Wiress
'Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping' has tapped Maya Hawke for the role of Wiress, former Hunger Games champion-turned-District 12 mentor.
Others set include Mckenna Grace as Maysilee Donner, Jesse Plemons as Plutarch Heavensbee, and Kelvin Harrison Jr. as Beetee. Our protagonist, 16-year-old Haymitch, is a clever and resourceful boy from District 12 who’s unexpectedly chosen for this edition of the games, which will feature a deadly twist: twice the number of tributes, with 48 children sent into the arena to battle for their lives. Best known for her role as Robin on Netflix’s Stranger Things, which is expected to return this year for its final season, Hawke recently voiced Anxiety in the global hit Inside Out 2, also taking on roles in prestige projects including Bradley Cooper’s Maestro, father Ethan Hawke’s Flannery O’Connor biopic Wildcat, and Wes Anderson’s Asteroid City.
