Willow Shields spoke with InStyle.com about her Hunger Games on-screen sister and real-life friend and confidant, Jennifer Lawrence.
“She’s done a great job of supporting me in a way that helps to keep my life balanced while staying grounded like she is,” Shields says. “Jen has an Oscar and she’s one of the most famous people in the world, but she’s still super humble and down to earth. She’s really taught me to stay that way.”
Jen has also set an example for Willow with her focused work ethic. “People always talk about how Jen’s so funny, and she is. She lightens the serious on-set mood in a great way,” Shields says. “But they don’t see the fact that when they say ‘action,’ she’s serious about her work and portraying her character the right way. I love that about her—it’s inspiring that she can balance having fun on set while also being serious.”
Their already close bond strengthened during Mockingjay filming “She really is like a sister to me, and when my mom’s not traveling with me, she’s like a mom to me,” Shields says. “She’s so protective over me, and somehow we’ve become even closer while filming Mockingjay, which I didn’t know was possible!”
Willow also found out that there are LOTS of Hunger Games fans in New York, “I was walking around Lincoln Center, and people started yelling, ‘I volunteer as tribute!’"
Hope truly IS stronger than fear. The long-awaited Mockingjay Part 1 theatrical trailer finally debuted today at TheHungerGamesExclusive.com.
Though the trailer is shorter than the average theatrical trailer, it still packed an epic emotional punch, showing us more of our beloved Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen, and her transition from survivor to reluctant leader of Panem's rebellion.
And Everlark lovers REJOICE! We got a hearbreaking peek at Peeta Mellark in the Capitol and Katniss' first look at him. "You're alive."
The new trailer deftly illustrates what Francis Lawrence has been saying about the narrative of Part 1: “With Mockingjay – Part I it’s tricky because Peeta is out of reach for her. Obviously he becomes an objective for her, but Gale is right there, so that’s always a tricky situation. Those objectives became the motives for us."
"Miss Everdeen, it's the things we love most that destroy us." will be haunting us forever.
Tickets for Mockingjay Part 1 go on sale October 29th!
The Hunger Games Exclusive Series 2 debuted today along with the Mockingjay Part 1 worldwide trailer. The new issue is packed with behind the scenes photos and exclusive interviews with the cast including Q & As with Jennifer Lawrence, Liam Hemsworth, and Natalie Dormer, character close-ups of Boggs, Pollux, Castor and Messalla, and, of course, the epic new trailer (see it HERE).
There is far too much to post here but check out a couple of our favorite photos from the site, and some lovely quotes from Jennifer Lawrence:
Josh and Liam are my best friends. And we’ve got the best crew that we’ve known for years. I don’t have to be ‘on’ all the time in front of them because they feel like my family.”
Jennifer on what she kept as a memento from the set:
The bow! Our props master told me that he could get me a new one because they made a few of them. But I want the one that Katniss is using while we shoot. It’s all scratched up. That bow means a lot to me.”
See it all at TheHungerGamesExclusive.com. And check out our gallery for more images from 'Mockingjay Part 1.'
We got another quick peek at Mockingjay Part 1 via the 2nd teaser clip "Tomorrow." A quick flash of Katniss and Gale taking aim, suited up in their rebellion gear with their Beetee-enhanced bows (GAH!!! District 8??) is all we get to warm us up for the big debut of the official Mockingjay Part 1 worldwide trailer, The Mockingjay Lives. Are you excited, tributes?
Tune in around 9:00am PT/ noon ET (our best guess on the time ) at TheHungerGamesExclusive.com to watch the trailer AND check out Series 2 featuring exclusive behind the scenes interviews and images!
“These are crimes,” he said of the massive hack. “These are absolutely crimes against human rights.”
“The fact that people react the way they do and look at that,” said Hutcherson, “It’s so unbelievably embarrassing to have somebody look into your private life,” he said. “It’s really disheartening to see that this is where the world of entertainment has gone and it’s gone that way because of greed and media and people feeling like they deserve something and have a right to something that they absolutely do not.”
Hutcherson said he hasn’t spoken to Lawrence since her photos were posted online.
“Everybody deals with those sort of situations on their own, in their own ways,” he said.
“None of us signed up for our private lives to be made public,” he said. “I started acted when I was nine years old, Jen started when she was 12. You don’t have this idea of celebrity at that age. You have the idea of wanting to make movies and have a passion for storytelling. It’s what we’re good at. It’s what we do. It’s not like we just made this choice and decided ‘Oh yeah, I want to be an actor because I want to make movies but also there’s a fame element…’ No, we didn’t think like that. At least I didn’t and I know Jen didn’t.”
Josh recently saw the finished The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1, which is set for release in November.
“I loved it. I’m so proud of it. I’m so glad that they split it into two movies because there’s so much that happens in that third book that if you tried to squeeze it into one two hour movie you would have lost so much,”
Hutcherson insisted fans will be thrilled by Mockingjay.
“It’s really dark, it’s really intense and the way you see how these characters try to recover and then build up a counterstrike against what they’ve experienced is really intense,” he said. “You’re absolutely going to love it.”
The star said it was hard to wrap production and walk away from cast and crew who worked together for a big part of the past four years.
“We’ve gone through some big changes together, just personally and professionally, that it’s hard to know that you’re not going to be 12 hours every day for months at a time with them,” said Hutcherson. “We’re still close, we’re still friends, we talk all the time — but it’s not the same so I’m definitely going to miss it.”
Did Hutcherson take a souvenir from District 12?
“I actually took the pendant that I gave Katniss — the one that opens and has the picture of her family, from that scene on the beach. I took that. It’s my one memento,” he confessed.
“It’s in my house in my desk drawer. I’m going to try to purposefully lose it — but in a way that I know I will find it in the future.”
New photos of Jennifer Lawrence for Miss Dior's Fall/Winter 2014 campaign have surfaced online.
Is it just me or do these Dior photos of Jen look just like the last set of Dior photos of Jen? I can't tell them apart. And while we're on the subject of JLaw and fashion, BazaarUK reports today that Jennifer will co-chair the Met Ball next May in New York.

Jennifer Lawrence's long-awaited film Serena finally has an official trailer and a poster. This movie has been surrounded by so many rumors and fake posters it's hard to believe it is actually going to be released. But these come from Studiocanal, the Australian distributor for the film.

A new Mockingjay Part 1 character poster of Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen was released today via the Our Leader the Mockingjay app.
The poster is BADASS. Katniss is our leader - and from the vantage point of the poster - we are following her. I love it. We may not have too long to wait to see that beautiful face, however. Under the Katniss poster is a little sentence. It says:
Our Leader The Mockingjay Arrives 9/10.
Perhaps in that long-awaited trailer?? Stay tuned.....
Happy 24th birthday to the one and only Jennifer Lawrence! We're so lucky - and proud - to have you bring our Katniss Everdeen to life in The Hunger Games films. Our best wishes to you from everyone here at Panem Propaganda!
And so it begins... The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 had its first press day yesterday! Both Lionsgate and Elizabeth Banks posted this cute shot of Liam Hemsworth, Elizabeth and Jennifer Lawrence to social media last night.
Elizabeth shared another angle of the shot (above) today to tumblr.
Willow Shields posted this snap to her instagram with the caption, "Feeling fancy. Press day for Mockingjay Part 1!"
A couple additional shots of Elizabeth and Willow were also shared around social media:

Tara Bennett tweeted that she interviewed Francis Lawrence (@Hibbits on twitter) for a Sci Fi Magazine article. We'll be looking forward to that one, Tara!! FYI, last year Tara wrote the cover story on Catching Fire for Sci Fi's December 2013 issue. It hit newsstands October 13th - ish if you're trying to figure out when we'll see all of this press.
Thanks to our friends at @HGNewsChannel and @Larrs9325 for the tips.
Liam Hemsworth leaving the after party at Kensington Roof Gardens
Various sources are reporting that Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson and Liam Hemsworth were at the Coldplay concert at Royal Albert Hall in London last night. When the concert was over the crew moved over to Kensington Roof Gardens for an after party. Liam and Jen were photographed leaving Kensington Roof Gardens but we haven't spotted any pics of Josh there yet. We're not posting the pap pics of Jennifer here as she clearly looks very unhappy to be photographed in the photos.
Photo courtesy Josh LawrenceLondon-based photographer Josh Lawrence posted the photo above to his instagram this morning. He shoots for British GQ and Vogue, among others. Hopefully, he's shooting Josh for an upcoming editorial.

Jennifer Lawrence is one of the most famous people in the world right now. Though Lawrence embraces her fame, and is known to be a fan friendly star, she has to deal with another side of fame, the invasion of her privacy. While many stars love the fame no matter what comes with it, Lawrence tells Hollywood Outbreak that at times, fame isn’t as glamorous as people think.
No, it's not everything that you think it's going to be. Because you think it's going to be annoying and then it kind of turns out to be scary. Um, and you also forget and you don't realize that the paparazzi, at the end of the day, are almost at the bottom of your list of problems. When you prepare yourself to be, you know, famous or whatever, you expect that to be a part of your life but you also forget that, um, the entire world starts treating you differently and you don't feel any differently and it's very alienating and it's something that I never thought about.
Jennifer Lawrence in 'The Poker House'Actress Lori Petty was a staple of 90's hits like Point Break, Tank Girl and A League of Their Own, and just made an appearance in the season premiere of Orange Is The New Black. She's also been busy directing films, and helmed Jennifer Lawrence's 2008 debut feature film, The Poker House. She spoke with The Daily Beast about discovering Jennifer and what makes her a star.
I saw your 2008 directorial debut, The Poker House, and people don’t really give you enough credit for “discovering” Jennifer Lawrence, since that was her first film credit.
No shit! You can quote me on that. No shit. I cast her in her first film. Look, she deserves one hundred percent of her success, period. In addition to that, I think I passed along 25 years of experience of being an actress to her. But she’s amazing and the camera loves her, and that’s why I cast her. It’s like when I first saw Leo DiCaprio in This Boy’s Life. We were editing A League of Their Own and De Niro and them were editing This Boy’s Life next door. Me and Penny [Marshall] were inseparable because I wanted to absorb everything she was doing, so I’d go to post-production with her. So De Niro comes in and goes, “You’ve got to see this kid.” So we went into the room and saw some unedited scenes with DiCaprio and both went, “There’s another movie star.” That’s what happened with Jennifer.
Where did you find Jennifer?
I’ve lived in Venice since Point Break in ’91, and Mary Vernieu lives in Venice, so she cast The Poker House as a favor to me, and she’s brilliant and casts every good movie. So, I’m in Chicago and we’d already cast Selma Blair as the mom, and Selma is five feet tall and weights 90 pounds. Mary sends me these tapes of these girls and goes, “This girl Jennifer Lawrence is a star. You have to watch this tape.” But it said she was 5’9” on her resume, and I said, “I can’t fit them both in the frame! How am I supposed to have the mom be 5’ and the daughter be 5’9”?” But she said, “Just watch the tape.” So I watched the tape and was like, “Okay, great, that’s another movie star.”
When I flew back to L.A., I put Jennifer, Chloe Grace Moretz, and Sophi [Bairley], who plays the middle daughter, read together, and afterwards I said, “Do you want to be in a movie?” And they said, “Of course, that’s why we’re here.” And I said, “No, do you want to be in this movie?” And they said, “Yes, of course we do, that’s why we’re here.” And I said, “No, I’m offering you the part, do you want to be in this movie?” And they started jumping up and down and screaming. I did that because I hated auditioning for a part and then waiting five days for your agent to tell you that you got it.
And Jennifer Lawrence’s father pops up in the film, too, as the basketball coach.
I forgot about that! He’s the basketball coach, yes. He was just hanging around. It was super low-budget and I had no producers looking over my shoulder. Steve Cannell, god rest his soul, just wrote a check and it was handled through his production company, so we were just humpin’ and making a movie. So I don’t know whose idea it was.
Here's a flashback to Lori and Jennifer doing press for The Poker House in 2010.
The CAST has finally been photographed on the Mockingjay set at Tempelhof Airport in Berlin. Today we've got some (pretty blurry) photos showing Jennifer Lawrence, Woody Harrelson, Liam Hemsworth, Wes Chatham, Francis Lawrence and producer Jon Kilik on set. Obviously, SPOILERS!
More photos from the set after the jump! Some are pretty spoilery so beware!
The paparazzi has found them already! Jennifer Lawrence and Liam Hemsworth were both spotted outside Soho House Hotel in Berlin yesterday. The cast is in Germany to complete work on Mockingjay.
And after being spotted in Madrid several times yesterday, Josh Hutcherson showed up in a fan pic this morning that was hashtagged #Berlin. It looks like it could be in the airport. But we don't have confirmation that this is ACTUALLY in Berlin so, for now, just enjoy a photo of Josh in a unconfirmed location!

German fans @xshipper (Marina) and @AniX1013 have been posting some great fan pics of the rest of the cast to their twitter accounts. Looks like they've met almost the entire cast! Follow them on twitter for more pics.

It's also been reported by a German website that Liam Hemsworth suffered a minor injury on the Mockingjay set yesterday and was brought to a local hospital. Reportedly filming wasn't interrupted so hopefully Liam is on the mend and back to work!
Jennifer Lawrence had a great time at the Oscars, but an even better one at the after party. Check out her appearance on Late Night With Seth Meyers where she talks about puking after the Oscars and being a Harry Potter fangirl.
