Sunrise on the Reaping star fought to have her character resemble Maysilee from beloved 2011 Hunger Games fan film

The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping star Mckenna Grace has proven once again that she is the perfect person to play Haymitch's right-hand woman, Maysilee Donner, in the upcoming prequel movie, as the star has revealed that she was insistent on honouring the beloved 2011 fan-made short film right from the start of the process.

Despite Suzanne Collins novel Sunrise on the Reaping detailing the 50th Hunger Games only hitting shelves in 2025, the upcoming movie adaptation won't be the first film to explore Haymitch's Hunger Games experience. Back in 2011, a 12-minute-long fan-made short film titled 'Hunger Games: The Second Quarter Quell' was posted online by MainstayPro, using what we learned about Haymitch's games from the first three books to bring the second Quarter Quell to life.

"Whenever the auditions started coming around, I watched the fan-made film. I would watch it over and over," said Grace in a new featurette posted on The Hunger Games Twitter page. "Every day I would show up to pre-production with the braid in my hair so that I could subconsciously convince them that that's what I had to have. My bangs have to be like this, I have to wear the braid, and then I got the straight hair too."

" Now that's what we call putting the fans first.
