Tom Blythe Says Rachel Zegler Remains Like a Little Sister to Him After Hunger Games Filming

Tom Blythe and Rachel Zegler, Digi Mart USA News: Tom Blythe has spoken openly about the close relationship he built with Rachel Zegler while working together on “The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2.”

“I think I’ve said this a million times, but she’s like a little sister to me. We both experienced something incredible at the same time early in our careers, an experience that marked our professional journeys, and we had the opportunity to share it.

I think we’ll be forever connected because of that,” Blythe said of the actress.

He added that he saw Zegler in the musical “Evita” in London’s West End last year and that he was there to support her then, while now she came to its premiere. He will have the opportunity to return the support when she stars in the Broadway production of the same musical in 2027.

“That’s really nice. She works so hard and deserves all the success that’s coming her way,” the actor said.

The film “The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes” is set approximately 64 years before the events of the first book of the original “Hunger Games” trilogy. Blythe plays the young Coriolanus Snow, who would later become the tyrannical president of the dystopian nation of Panem and the series’ main villain.

Zegler plays Lucy Graybeard, a District 12 representative who Snow mentors as she tries to restore her family’s former reputation and wealth.

The sequel to the film story, “The Hunger Games: Catching Fire”, hits theaters on November 20, with Ralph Fiennes taking on the role of the elderly President Snow.

Blythe confirmed that he plans to watch the new film, and also revealed that he has remained in contact with director Francis Lawrence, as well as the rest of the crew he worked with on the previous film.

“Yes, I often correspond with Francis. We are all good friends, the entire crew that worked on that film.

I think we will see each other soon, and I hope to see the film soon,” said the actor, adding that the new sequel seems great to him and that the crew did a great job.

Blythe is currently starring in the Broadway revival of “A Few Good Men,” in which he plays Lieutenant Commander Daniel A. Caffey, a role originally portrayed by Tom Cruise in the 1992 film of the same name.
