Filming for The Hunger Games : Sunrise on the Reaping is underway and Elle Fanning is taking over the role of Effie Trinket — with the endorsement of original star Elizabeth Banks .

The newest story in the Hunger Games franchise — based on Suzanne Collins‘ best-selling novel — takes place in Panem on the morning of the reaping for the 50th Hunger Games, 24 years before the events of the first movie. In the prequel, Effie serves as the stylist for Haymitch Abernathy (played by Joseph Zada) ahead of the 50th games; Banks portrayed an older version of Effie in the series’ first four films, which kicked off with The Hunger Games hitting theaters in 2012.
