Jennifer is a ‘Powerful Person’

Jennifer’s Like Crazy and The Beaver co-star Anton Yelchin says how much of a powerful person that he thinks Jennifer is and that he got to see first hand,

 “I was training for a film called ‘Odd Thomas’ that I was doing at the same gym Jen was training [at for] the bow stuff and all the running,” Yelchin told MTV News recently. “I got to see her and talk to her. I think she’s amazing, and she’s a good friend of mine.”

And after checking out the “Hunger Games” teaser, Yelchin had firsthand knowledge of what it took for Lawrence to become Katniss. He was impressed, but not surprised.

“When I saw Jen, it was different kinds of physical training she was going through, like running training,” he said. “She’s such a powerful person. She can do anything she puts her mind to. If she needs to transform for something, she’ll transform. If she needs to learn how to kill you with the bow, she’ll do that. She’ll do anything she needs to do.”

Elizabeth Olsen; the next Jennifer Lawrence

IFC had an article on Elizabeth Olsen and how she’s the new ‘it girl’ and how Jennifer’s Winters Bone co-star John Hawkes got the same vibe from Olsen as he did from Jennifer.

“It’s fantastic,” he told IFC. “It’s vindicating as well, when you’re working with someone who’s a powerhouse, a young person who just out of the blue is a surprise. It’s been a real gift to be part of these young women’s journeys, and it’s really rewarding.”

When Hawkes was shooting “MMMM,” “Winter’s Bone” was yet to be released, but according to him, “I had this flashback feeling … the same joy and the same amazement in working with her. I was reminded of Jennifer.” (Hawkes, by the way, plays Elizabeth’s cult leader in the film).

Hottest 25 Celebritites Under 25: Jennifer Lawrence

Jennifer has been put in the hottest 25 celebrities that are under 25. The list also includes people like Blake Lively, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth and Emma Stone.

Some names you’ve heard already, like Blake Lively and Emma Stone, but there’s a few who are just on the cusp of really hitting the big time. Take, for example, Elizabeth Olsen. Sure, she’s got serious pedigree (she’s the sister of Ashley and Mary-Kate), but she’s breaking out this year and has some serious Oscar buzz in her favor. Also, get ready for a whole lot of Jennifer Lawrence — and her Hunger Games castmates Josh Hutcherson and Liam Hemsworth — once the sure-to-be-blockbuster film is released in 2012.

After her critically acclaimed role in “Winter’s Bone,” Jennifer Lawrence, 21, further showcased her acting skills as Raven in this summer’s smash, X-Men: First Class. The Oscar-nominated actress will next play the coveted role of Katniss Everdeen in “The Hunger Games,” in March 2012.

Lenny Kravitz: Jennifer reminds me of a young Meryl Streep!

In US Magazine; Lenny Kravitz talks about Jennifer and his scenes withher as he plays Katniss’ (Jennifer) stylist Cinna and creates the whole girl on fire!

US: How has it been working with Jennifer Lawrence?

LK: Oh man, I shot a scene with her yesterday and it was just the two of us, where our characters meet, and she is unbelievable. I hate comparisons, but she is a young Meryl Streep. This girl is for real and just acting with her, it just brought it to a level where she pulled me in so deeply, and the scene just became so real and at the end we had to pop out of it. It was someplace we had gone into and it was really beautiful. I learned actually a lot from her yesterday and she is fantastic.

US: You knew her through Zoe before you started filming, right?

LK: Yes, and that makes it even more odd. She is a family friend and all of the sudden you have to be serious because when we are all together we are all quite silly. My daughter, her friends…we are quite a silly bunch, but it was great.

Lucas shared with hitfx on how he almost missed out on starring in X Men First Class because of the thought that he was to be offered beast and couldn’t endure the hours of make up that Jennifer had to do to get into her role of Mystique.

“They could’ve been trying to goof me or whatever… I went out, and they were flying me to London, and [they] told me I was auditioning for Havok and Beast,” Lucas shared. “And I was like, ‘I know you’ll kill me, but if I get Beast, I’m not in the movie. I’m not going through that makeup everyday.’”

He added, “I have so much respect for Jason [Flemying], Jennifer [Lawrence], and Nick [Hoult]. They had to go through like hours of makeup before we even got there. It’s just rough.”

Don’t forget to order you X Men: First Class DVD or Blur Ray copy here but if your visiting this site from the UK; please remember that X Men:First Class comes out for you guys on the 31st October.

“Hunger Games” Burning Questions Answered

Director Gary Ross leads MTV News through some of hot topics surrounding the highly anticipated adaptation.

If you thought our “Hunger Games” exclusives would end with the sneak peek Jennifer Lawrence introduced during Sunday’s VMAs, you are in for a pleasant surprise! MTV News teamed up with director Gary Ross in order to shed some insight into the teaser trailer and his vision for the highly anticipated film. And although Ross couldn’t reveal too much about his plans for Katniss and the Capitol, we were able to get him to answer a few burning questions:

What’s the Status of the Score?
“T-Bone [Burnett] and Danny [Elfman] haven’t really started working yet. We’ve all begun working together. We’ve all begun discussing music, pulling references, going through the initial process you go through. Music can actually affect the movie more than anything else. It establishes the tone. It literally can change the way you feel or perceive a movie. That’s a very long discussion that happens between me, T-Bone and Danny, and that’s already begun. Danny was out last week. T-Bone’s been out three times. We’ve begun this conversation of trying to understand what this is musically. But that’s not going to bear fruit for a while.”

How Did Jennifer Train for the Role of Katniss?
“It’s an intensely physical movie. Someone said Jen is in 110 percent of the movie, which is really true. She works every day, all day. It’s a very physically demanding thing that she’s doing. She did train really, really rigorously. She worked with an athletic trainer, someone who conditions athletes in Los Angeles. She had intense archery training. So she’s had a very rigorous athletic conditioning program.” Continue reading “Hunger Games” Burning Questions Answered
