This new version of ‘Carrie’ will mark the fourth time the story has been brought to the screen (excluding ‘The Rage: Carrie 2’ and two stage plays), and is anticipated to be a modern and relevant retelling of the classic novel.

Elle Fanning Set to Bring Effie Trinket to Life in Hunger Games Prequel!

As reported by Nexus Point News, there are whispers that Elle Fanning could step into the shoes of Effie Trinket in the upcoming Hunger Games movie, The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping. Previously, Elizabeth Banks brought this beloved role to life in the original four Hunger Games films from 2012 to 2015. In the prequel, set 24 years prior to the events of The Hunger Games, Effie works alongside her sister, Proserpina, as a stylist for District 12’s tributes. It is during this time that she encounters a young Haymitch Abernathy. Many fans have suggested Fanning as a fitting choice to replace Banks in the iconic character, and she would surely do an outstanding job.
