Jennifer Lawrence became the second-youngest actress to have won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her portrayal of a young troubled widow in David O. Russell’s 2012 rom-com Silver Linings Playbook. That same year, she also starred as Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games film series alongside Liam Hemsworth.

“His whole family, they’re real animals,” she said. “It’s the craziest family I’ve been around in my life. The way that they communicate is so physical and crazy. It’s like, ‘Eat this scab and I’ll give you five bucks!’  They’re disgusting. They’re real bears; they’re animals!”

While talking to ColliderLawrence revealed the reason behind her hesitance, saying:

“Because it’s really rare in your life that saying yes to something will completely change your life. I was happy with my life and I just didn’t know if I wanted it to change. I’ve always had this imaginary future in mind where I would be a soccer mom that drove a mini-van and my kids were normal and I had the same family that I grew up with. That just didn’t fit with taking on a giant franchise. So, I took three days, and each day was a different answer. I finally talked to my mom.”

The American Hustle star’s mother made her understand that this was the kind of role that she actually wanted to do since she did not want to get involved with a project that she did not care about and the actress was an admirer of The Hunger Games books.
