Mckenna Grace & More Look Fire at Sunrise on the Reaping U.K. Premiere

Glenn Close Is Unrecognizable in ‘The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping’ Teaser Trailer

Are you, are you coming for the Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping fashion?

Mckenna Grace, Elle Fanning, Joseph Zada, Glenn Close, Whitney Peak, Jesse Plemons, Kieran Culkin, Ralph Fiennes and more stars of the latest Suzanne Collins adaptation volunteered to walk the red carpet in style at the Oct. 28 premiere in London.

Grace—who recently paid tribute to original The Hunger Games star Jennifer Lawrence in a gown reminiscent of Katniss Everdeen's wedding dress—stunned in an intricated gown from ALmée Couture depicting a lush meadow like the Quarter Quell arena.

Meanwhile, Fanning rocked a pink couture frock by Robert Wun featuring a structured bodice and tulle skirt. In true Effie Trinket fashion, she topped off the extravagant look with a tall headpiece featuring a ballerina figurine standing in front of a mirror.

And fashion itself plays a big part in Sunrise on the Reaping, a prequel centered around Haymitch Abernathy (Zada) competing in his first Hunger Games.

"Each of the Hunger Games have such a specific time period for fashion," Grace recently told E! News. "Sunrise on the Reaping, at least [on] all the mood boards, there was Stevie Nicks. It was very '60s, '70s-inspired."

While 2023's Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes was influenced by the 1950s style, the 20-year-old detailed how the fashion in original movies—which also starred Liam Hemsworth and Josh Hutcherson—were "more modern" to reflect contemporary times.

"It's cool because you're not only seeing younger versions of these characters," she continued, "but what Panem and the Districts would have looked like at that time period."

But there was one costume piece that Grace wasn't too keen on wearing around set: the oversized capes Tributes donned while fighting in the arena. As she said with a laugh, "My knees were purple because of those capes."

Zada agreed, jokingly telling E! that it "was a sick joke to see everyone trip over themselves." 

He added, "You can't exactly run in those things."

To see what the Sunrise on the Reaping cast wore at the U.K. premiere, read on.
