Collector screening of 'The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping' at Vue Swindon with a limited-edition collectible pin and exclusive merchandise.
Vue Swindon is hosting a collector screening of The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping on Saturday 28 November, starting at 3pm. It's a one-off session, so if you're planning on it, you'll want to get your tickets sorted rather than leaving it until the day.
The draw here is the merchandise. Every ticket comes with one of three limited-edition collectible pins, and there's exclusive themed gear available to go with it: popcorn buckets, cups and keyrings. If you've got a thing for the collectibles, that's the main reason to pick this screening over a standard showing.
As for the film, it's a prequel set 24 years before Katniss Everdeen ever entered the arena. It follows a young Haymitch Abernathy as he competes in the 50th annual Hunger Games, also known as the Second Quarter Quell, which forced double the usual number of tributes to fight for survival. The cast is a big one: Joseph Zada, Whitney Peak, McKenna Grace, Ralph Fiennes, Elle Fanning, Jesse Plemons, Kieran Culkin, Maya Hawke and Glenn Close. If you know the books or the films, you'll recognise Haymitch as the mentor Katniss eventually leans on, so this is his origin story.
