Jennifer Lawrence tells Viola Davis weight loss was the 'biggest conversation' around The Hunger Games casting

Lawrence remarks that the runaway success ofshe “couldn’t really be an observer of life because everybody was observing me.” She shares, “I could feel my craft suffering. And I didn’t know how to fix it. I was scrambling, trying to fix it by saying yes tomovie. And not realizing that what I had to do wasDoing press and interviews is also a hindrance to the craft because, Lawrence says, “I’m supposed to be a mirror. I’m supposed to be a vessel.

“And on top of that, it’s Eurocentric training,” Davis adds. “So when you’re studying all those classics, it’s clear what all of those characters look like —and that’s not me. So then what am I supposed to do with me? What am I supposed to do with my Blackness? What am I supposed to do with my deep voice and my wide nose?”

I think Hemsworth said that for Thor they wanted him to be shredded. Appalling.

I expected a lot more eating in that movie. Or fasting I guess.

Is it possible they wanted her to be thin because the character is emaciated? As our nation looks more like Panem everyday, maybe folks would be better off thinking about the books' content than silly clickbait regarding a ten year old movie.

I mean at least she didn't say something even more ridiculous, like, I dunno, claiming that before 'Hunger Games' no one had put a female lead in an action movie.
