Summary
The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping will move to Meta’s upcoming VR glasses after its Nov. 20 theatrical release under a new Lionsgate-Meta partnership.
DNEG has already completed a 3D conversion of the film, with Meta backing the work so the movie can play on the lighter glasses rather than its existing bulkier headsets.
Francis Lawrence said the format fits the film’s intended immersive feel, while Lionsgate called the arrangement a first-of-its-kind collaboration for the franchise.
The deal extends Meta’s push into premium 3D entertainment after projects with James Cameron and Disney, using a franchise that has grossed more than $3.3 billion worldwide.
