J. Lo? No, J. Law!

It's official! Jennifer Lawrence is set to play the role of the beloved Katniss Everdeen in the Hunger Games movie. Gary Ross decided she is, in heart and in soul, perfect for the role of Katniss when he first saw her in the critically-acclaimed movie, Winter's Bone (which I've put on my to-watch list). She's twenty years old already, which has caused a lot of turmoil within fans' hearts, but Ross said her maturity is needed in the movie.


Lawrence was born in Louisville, Kentucky and her big break was in Winter's Bone. For that, she had been nominated for an Oscar and had won the Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Festival. And get this, she actually skinned squirrels and chopped wood in the movie! I guess that sheds a little light on some pessimistic fans' view of Jennifer Lawrence.

Here is her interview with Jimmy Kimmel. She's pretty amusing, if you ask me.





Jennifer Lawrence won't disappoint. Real or not real?

PS. I cannot wait for the other members of the cast to be revealed. Honestly, I'm so hyped up, I'm typing really fast and pressing keys too hard.
