Mia, 21, is a professional actor who has previously starred in the independent feature One Night in Istanbul and The Gathering for Channel 4. She will soon feature in the new Playground Entertainment series, Maigret, and the feature film Let’s Love. Mia graduated from Tring Park School for the Performing Arts in 2022 and studied acting at The Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute.
On being cast as Everdeen, Mia said: “I am so excited and honoured to be playing Katniss. This is a dream come true role and I cannot wait to see the production come to life. From being a huge fan of the films, I feel so lucky to be a part of the Hunger Games world, especially working with Matthew Dunster and an incredible creative team.”
Play director, Dunster, added: “We searched far and wide, and comprehensively, for our Katniss. It is not easy to step into Suzanne Collins’s amazing creation and only one actor combined Katniss’s charisma and combat skills – her quiet, tough determination and her brilliant creativity, athleticism, and humour. We’ve found our Katniss in Mia Carragher, and we can’t wait for audiences to see her.”
The Hunger Games On Stage will run at the newly opened 1,200-seater Troubadour Canary Wharf Theatre in London from 20 October 2025.
Reds icon Carragher will be back on punditry duties at Sky Sports next month. The new الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز season is all set to kick off on August 15 with reigning champions Liverpool taking on Bournemouth at Anfield.
