Hutcherson Open to Return in Hunger Games Prequel
Josh Hutcherson, who played Peeta Mellark in the original Hunger Games films, has expressed interest in returning for the upcoming prequel, Sunrise on the Reaping, but states he has not been contacted or involved in the production. The prequel, based on Suzanne Collins' latest novel and set for a November 2026 release, will focus on the 50th Hunger Games and a young Haymitch Abernathy, with Peeta and Katniss only briefly appearing in the story's epilogue. Joseph Zada has been cast as Haymitch and Whitney Peak as Lenore Dove Baird, along with other high-profile additions. Hutcherson's ongoing affection for the franchise and his openness to reprise his role have sparked fan speculation about potential cameos by original cast members. The film marks the sixth installment in the Hunger Games cinematic universe and is expected to attract strong fan interest. Despite no official involvement, Hutcherson's comments underscore the franchise's enduring popularity.
