CNN: What is the hunger games?

CNN has wrote an article that has quite a bit on the hunger games and a little on Jennifer:

When Lionsgate announced that Jennifer Lawrence had been cast to play Katniss, both fans and critics questioned the choice, believing she was too old, too blond and too pretty to play a ruthless warrior. However, if her success in “Winter’s Bone” and “X-Men: First Class” is any indication of her range, Lawrence has the potential to nail this role and pave the way for kick-butt female heroines.

The Hunger Games has Wrapped!

Great news! Lionsgate has officially announced that The Hunger Games is wrapped! Jennifer will play Katniss Everdeen, which you probably all know anyway and it will come out next year. Jennifer stars along side the likes of Josh Hutcherson (Peeta Mellark) and Liam Hemsworth (Gale Hawthorne).

Like Crazy at TIFF

Tomorrow, Jennifer’s movie Like Crazy is having its first showing at TIFF at 6pm at Ryerson. On the TIFF website it has a long plot synopsis 

She’s English, he’s American — but for now they’re both squatting in the land of the smitten. In this savvy take on star-crossed love, the obstacle comes not in the form of feuding families or untimely death, but the more contemporary challenges of geography and immigration papers. While Drake Doremus offered up goofball road-trip romance in his 2010 comedy Douchebag, he now turns his virtuoso eye to the dramatic.Like Crazy is an astute and sharply honest glimpse at one turbulent ocean-spanning relationship.

Anna (Felicity Jones) notices Jacob (Anton Yelchin) in one of her college classes in Los Angeles. In a move worthy only of her youth, she scribbles a love poem and leaves it on his car. The pair is soon catapulted into that most potent brand of romance: naïve, pure and possibly fleeting. When Anna is deported back to England after overstaying her visa, the couple reckons with the inadequacies of text messaging, rival lovers and the cruel realities of a distance that starts out physical but becomes, over time, emotional.

The actors improvised all of the dialogue — Doremus’ mother was a founding member of The Groundlings, so improv is in his genes — adding a visceral naturalism to the film’s affective punch. Jones and Yelchin perfectly capture the can’t-get-enough-of-each-other bliss of young love, conveying both the sweetness and vulnerability of twentysomething courtship. As Jacob’s convenient distraction, Jennifer Lawrence (nominated for an Academy Award® for Winter’s Bone last year) is a smoky counterpoint to Jones’ bright-eyed Anna.

This perceptive account of first-time heartbreak is often painful but never cynical. Shot on a Canon HD still camera,Like Crazy’s lo-fi visual sensibility enhances the high-impact resonance of Anna and Jacob’s very recognizable story. Doremus’ lens magnifies the often fitful process of realizing it isn’t meant to be. We may idealize our first love, but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t real.

Teen Vogue: The Hunger Games character profiles

Teen Vogue have posted an online character profile for the characters of Jennifer’s up coming movie; The Hunger Games in which she plays Katniss Everdeen.

Katniss Everdeen
When her father died, fiercely self-sufficient sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen was forced to became the sole provider for her mother and little sister—which, in District 12, often means spending whole days in the wilderness, illegally hunting for food. Despite her hard exterior, Katniss has a big heart and often shares her spoils with others. Her love for her little sister, Prim, forces Katniss to take her place as a competitor in Panem’s annual Hunger Games. As a “tribute” in the games, Katniss uses her skills and strength to survive, and along the way learns something she never expected—how to trust someone else to take care of her.

DVD Extras: Painting Jennifer

Watch as the lovely Jennifer Lawrence is transformed into the scaly blue mutant Mystique, in this exclusive behind-the-scenes video from X-Men: First Class.

In this sneak peek from the special features included inside the movie’s DVD and Blu-Ray release, you can watch a team of 6 make-up artists airbrush on the scaly blue sheath that is Mystique’s very thin costume. We have a hard time imagining standing still for seven hours, only to work a full day on set directly afterwards. Still, we’d argue it was worth it, Raven’s the young blue hide in this 1960s mutant period piece was spectacular.

The DVD for X-Men: First Class will be out on DVD on Friday, September 9th. Watch the video here.
