The Euphoria star, who has modeled for brands like Prada, Dior and Gucci, and helped boost trans representation in Hollywood, was cast in the role of Tigris Snow in the film.

While you’re talking to People earlier this month, Zegler said she is a big fan of the franchise and recalled the first time she saw The Hunger Games.

β€œI went to the theater with my sister and my mother to see it,” she remembers. “The woman next to my sister had never read the books or seen the movie, and when the mutts came out she started yelling, ‘What’s going to happen now?’

β€œAnd it’s forever etched in my memory,” she said of the experience and film. She then added regarding the prequel, “I hope the people in our theaters do it too.”
