During a recent episode of The RewatchablesOscar winner Jennifer Lawrence spoke about her failed audition for one of the blockbuster movies “Twilight.”
Lawrence revealed that she didn’t even get a call back for it. However, the snub allowed her to break out just a year later in 2012’s Hunger Games.
“I auditioned for Twilight (and) they turned me down straight away. I didn’t even get a call back,” Lawrence recalled on the podcast. “But my life would have been completely different. I think a year later I got the Hunger Games. When you audition as an average actor, you only get five pages and they’re like, ‘Oh look.’ When it came out, I was like, ‘Hot damn.'”
What is Jennifer Lawrence’s latest project?
Following her emotional performance in 2022’s independent drama Causeway, Lawrence is currently starring in Sony Pictures’ raunchy comedy No Hard Feelings, which is now in theaters worldwide. Gene Stupnitsky (“Good Boys”) is directing from a screenplay he co-wrote with John Phillips, who also serves as executive producer. Lawrence will be joined by Andrew Barth Feldman, Matthew Broderick, Natalie Morales, Laura Benanti, Kyle Mooney, Hasan Minhaj, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Scott MacArthur and more.
“As Maddie (Lawrence) is on the verge of losing her childhood home, she discovers an intriguing job opening: wealthy helicopter parents are looking for someone to date their introverted 19-year-old son, Percy, before he goes to college. To her surprise, Maddie soon discovers that bumbling Percy is not a sure thing,” reads the synopsis.
