Sunrise on the Reaping depicts the 50th Hunger Games, also known as the second Quarter Quell. Normally, each district of Panem must send two tributes to compete in the Hunger Games. In a quarter quell, each district must produce twice the number of tributes, resulting in 48 children and teenagers who must fight to the death in the arena.

Joseph Zada stars in the film as Haymitch Abernathy, a role originally played by Woody Harrelson in the first four Hunger Games movies. In Sunrise on the Reaping, Haymitch is 16 years old on the morning of the reaping.
