The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping, yet another new prequel, has cast some of its most important characters – and Rachel Zegler, who played Lucy Baird in The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds, approves.

According to Deadline, the cast so far includes Jesse Plemons as Plutarch Heavensbee, Joseph Zada as Haymitch Abernathy, Whitney Peak, Lenore Dove Baird, and Mckenna Grace as Maysilee Donner. Zegler posted Peak's casting to her Instagram in a now-expired story, writing: "i know she's gonna do the baird name proud."
