20 Behind-The-Scenes Facts From The Hunger Games

It’s probably handy that Haymitch as a character drinks so much. There are many scenes at dinner tables or in social situations where he is seen with a glass rather than a plate.

While this suits his character incredibly well, it also suited Woody Harrelson, his actor, just fine too. Harrelson is a vegan in real life, and many of the dishes served were based around meat and other products like milk or eggs. As such, he can usually be seen in the films consuming vegetables or drink instead.

This isn’t the first time Harrelson has eaten alternatives on set either; for his role in Zombieland, he ate fake Twinkies to avoid the milk inside them. You have to admire his dedication!
