Jennifer Lawrence talks about the new, exciting phase of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1, and the new found relationship between Katniss and Gale. 

As we enter the next adventure of Katniss and her fight against President Snow and the Capitol, fans will be excited to know that Jennifer Lawrence was finally ready to kick things into gear and transform Katniss into the hero she was reluctant to become.

“I was excited for Katniss to come into her own as a leader, but she’s still a very reluctant hero,” Lawrence said. “In the first movie she wanted to save her family. In the second, she tried to save her friends and herself. Now, she starts to realize the impact she has on the wider world and that she has a choice to lead this battle for what is right.”

She awakens in a shocking world she didn’t even know existed: the deep, dark underground of supposedly annihilated District 13. She quickly learns of the devastating reality she must face: District 12 has been turned to rubble; and Peeta is being held, manipulated and brainwashed by President Snow in The Capitol. At the same time, Katniss’s eyes are opened to a secret rebellion rapidly spreading from District 13 throughout all of Panem – a rebellion that will place her at the center of a daring plot to hack into The Capitol and turn the tables on President Snow.

“As an actor, the challenge was having Katniss wake up in a brand new environment, where she has to rebuild herself from nothing. Katniss has not only left behind her old life as a District 12 victor, she has entered a world unlike any other. Says Lawrence: “She has to get used to a new way of life in District 13. Everything is deeply unfamiliar and it’s all underground, so she can’t even go outside or hunt.”

In this video interview Jennifer Lawrence dishes on her love of The Hunger Games books, and her new relationship with Gale, which finally deepens (Liam Hemsworth).
