There are 10 things to know about The Hunger Games‘ Jennifer Lawrence. I think Friday’s much-anticipated release of The Hunger Games is going to solidify Jennifer Lawrence as a bona fide star! The Hunger Games’ Jennifer Lawrence plays the lead role of Katniss Everdeen and has been heavily promoting the film for weeks. The actress allowed audiences a glimpse into her quirky personality during her appearance on Late Night with David Letterman, referring to herself as a “troll” and admitted to doing shots before the red carpet. I think Jennifer Lawrence‘s confidence to be herself has her next in line to become “America’s Sweetheart.”
