The recast of President Coriolanus Snow for The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping is a sad reminder of Donald Sutherland. In the four original Hunger Games movies, Sutherland played the role of the villainous President Snow. His performance is widely considered to be among the best in the movies through his ability to capture the character's cruelty, manipulative nature, air of superiority, and how much he revels in the suffering of others.
