District 4 male (74th HG)

The District 4 male was the male tribute from District 4 who participated in the 74th Hunger Games.

Tribute Parade
In the film, Max is first seen in the Tribute Parade with his district partner, the District 4 female. He and his partner wore light blue outfits with blue crowns that looked like splashing waters, pearls and bubbles, and at the shoulders of their outfits were pinned together with starfish, all representing the ocean.

Training
In training, he is seen looking around at the other tributes, standing next to Rue as Atala explains the rules. He was also seen behind Thresh, looking up at Rue when Cato and some of the others were fighting over who took Cato's knife, indicating that he also knew that she stole Cato's knife. In his private session with the Gamemakers, he received a training score of 8. In his scoreboard, his odds of winning were 15-1.

Interviews
The District 4 male waited in line with the other tributes, and wore a black suit with white shoes and a white tie.

Cornucopia bloodbath
The District 4 male was killed in the initial Cornucopia bloodbath. Katniss states that she was surprised to see his face in the sky on the first day, because he was from District 4 and was considered a Career Tribute but probably he was killed since he was young and would not be as effective to the Career pack unlike his district partner. However, in the film, nothing was said about District 4 being a Career District.



In the film, the District 4 male was elevated onto a pedestal on the right side of Rue's pedestal and the left of the District 5 male's pedestal. When the gong signaled the beginning of the Games, the District 4 male jumped over a crate and ran inside the Cornucopia a few seconds after Thresh arrived. He found a yellow, rolled up sleeping bag, before crouching and hiding behind several crates of supplies. After the bulk of the fights had concluded he ran out of his hiding spot in an attempt to slip by, grabbing a small sword off the wall on the way. Unfortunately he made the error of looking behind his back all the way to the mouth of the Cornucopia. When he turned around, Cato had long since noticed him and slashed his throat open. Either the blood loss or suffocation would have resulted in his death. He placed 14th and his face was the 2nd seen on the 1st night of the games.



Muttation
Like the rest of the fallen tributes, he had a wolf-like muttation made in his likeness. It is unknown if his mutt survived the final battle at the Cornucopia.

Film portrayal
In The Hunger Games film, the District 4 male was portrayed by Ethan Jamieson.
