“I was forced to lose weight, but I resisted!”: Jennifer Lawrence talked about filming “Hunger Games”

The Oscar winner is best known for her role in the movie Hunger Games. Jennifer played the lead role in it. The saga, based on the books of Suzanne Collins, occupies a special place in the life of the actress.

When Lawrence was invited to play Katniss Everdeen, she was only 20 years old. The actress still remembers the pressure she had on the set.

“This role was a big responsibility for me. I couldn’t screw it up after the Oscars. And the only thing I remember clearly was how they made me lose weight for the role! I remember how they called me before filming and asked how many kilograms I would lose, “said Jennifer.

In the franchise, the heroine Lawrence is a young girl trying to stay alive during violent games. Project leaders claimed that Jennifer needed to lose weight to match Katniss, who grew up poor and didn’t eat enough.

“I understood that these movies would be based on the books. The audience is children. I had to thank everyone. Literally every day they pressured me, demanded that I lose weight, but I categorically refused the diet. And not only for himself, but also for his young fans. I was young growing up and couldn’t diet. Also, I don’t want the girls who will be dressing up as Katniss to feel like they can’t do it just because they’re not skinny enough,” Jennifer admitted.

The actress is categorically against various diets and does not support rapid weight loss. Jennifer has repeatedly stated that she is not going to starve herself for the role. The only thing she is ready for is sports. Lawrence exercises daily.
