Jennifer Lawrence

Jennifer Lawrence is one of the most popular movie stars in the world. Her big break was three seasons on TBS’ ‘The Bill Engvall Show,’ but she first garnered attention as a serious actress in the indie drama ‘Winter’s Bone’ from 2010. The film netted Lawrence her first Oscar nomination; two years later she received another nomination and her first Academy Award for her work in David O. Russell’s ‘Silver Linings Playbook’ (a third nomination followed the next year for ‘American Hustle’). Her most famous roles though are in a pair of major Hollywood franchises: ‘X-Men,’ where she is the young version of the shapeshifting Mystique, and, of course, ‘The Hunger Games,’ where she plays reality star and revolutionary leader Katniss Everdeen.

  • Notable Credits:
  • Winter’s Bone (2010)
  • The Hunger Games (2012)
  • Silver Linings Playbook (2012)
  • American Hustle (2013)
  • X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014)

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 is going to be one the highest grossing films of 2015 no matter what, so every trailer and poster can’t help but feel ever-so-slightly redundant. Oh, remember that movie that you and everyone you know is already going to see anyway? Here’s an unnecessary reminder that it exists!
