Tom Blyth played Snow in that movie, and Donald Sutherland played the president at his oldest age in the original trilogy. Now, Fiennes is playing him at his middle age, and Rachel Zegler reacted to his casting in the funniest way, writing:

The formidable leader of Panem has previously been portrayed by Donald Sutherland in the original four films, and in his younger years by Tom Blyth in 2023’s “A Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.” Fiennes’ Snow will fall between the two, 40 years after the events of “Songbirds” and 24 years before Katniss Everdeen’s time in the arena.

The new "Hunger Games" prequel film "Sunrise on the Reaping" will star Joseph Zada, Maya Hawke, Lili Taylor and Whitney Peak. See the cast so far.
