5/19/2011Jennifer Lawrenceadmin

Yesterday we got to see the first photo of Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen.  Now, thanks to @epnebelle on twitter we have our first look at new pictures of Jennifer from this week’s Entertainment Weekly.

When it comes to the dazzling attire Katniss will wear when she’s interviewed in front of the Capitol audience. Lawrence couldn’t care less. But she was…vocal on the subject of her arena outfit–the survivalist style clothing (seen here) that she wears while fighting for her life.  ”I’m going to be doing a lot of my own stunts” says Lawrence.  “I want to make sure I can run and jump and climb. I’ve been … the costume design…and…the boots. You have to do this here. You have to make it lighter there. You have to open it up here. The dresses I don’t care about. Just put them on me, it’s like Oscar season again.”

Though some of the words were a bit hard to make out on the scanned copy, we have learned that Jennifer is planning to doing many of her stunts and is very active in the design of the arena costume.  And just like Katniss, she could care less about the dresses.  *sniff* She is our girl on fire, isn’t she?

You can pick up Entertainment Weekly on newstands, tomorrow, May 20th.
