EW first look at Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss
When Lawrence was offered the role, she describes her response as a mixture of elation — and desperate anxiety. “I knew that as soon as I said yes, my life would change,” she says. “And I walked around an entire day thinking ‘It’s not too late, I could still go back and do indies, I haven’t said yes yet, it’s not too late.’”
And yet, who can turn their back on Katniss? “I love this story,” she says, “and if I had said no, I would regret it every day.” After officially signing on, Suzanne Collins herself called to offer a starstruck Lawrence her most hearty congratulations. “I feel like when you said yes,” the author told her, “the world got lifted off my shoulders.”

Paula Malcomson cast as Katniss’s Mother
Lionsgate® and the filmmakers of THE HUNGER GAMES are pleased to announce that actress Paula Malcomson has been cast in the role of Katniss and Primrose Everdeen’s mother in the much anticipated film adaptation of Suzanne Collins’ worldwide smash hit novel.
Paula Malcomson joins talented young actresses in the roles of her daughters – Jennifer Lawrence as series heroine Katniss Everdeen, and Willow Shields as little sister Primrose. Josh Hutcherson has been cast as Peeta Mellark, with Liam Hemsworth in the role of Gale Hawthorne. Amandla Stenberg in the role of Rue, Dayo Okeniyi as her District 11 partner Thresh, and Leven Rambin and Jack Quaid as District 1’s Glimmer and Marvel round out the cast of the fellow tributes drafted to join Katniss and Peeta in the arena.
Said producer Nina Jacobson of the choice, ““Katniss and Prim’s mother has come back from the depths of despair. Her husband has been killed, resources are scarce and she must live in fear that either one of her daughters could be forced to participate in the Hunger Games. Needless to say, we needed an actress with some gravitas – someone who could really transport herself, and audiences, to a place as tough as District 12. Paula has appeared in some really top notch TV shows that are both extremely gritty and extremely imaginative, and she was the perfect choice for this role.”
Malcomson is represented by UTA, and manager Seven Summits. Her most recent credits include the HBO series DEADWOOD, and the SyFy series CAPRICA. Last year she had a season long arc on the F/X series SONS OF ANARCHY.
