In the US, the premiere of the film "The Red Sparrow" with Jennifer Lawrence in the title role. To shoot in this movie, the actress had to work a lot on herself and learn to step over her principles and fears.
In the interview Vanity Fair Lawrence admitted that she was losing weight, how she managed to cope with shyness for filming naked, and why she had a tantrum because of banana chips, she says New channel.
27-year-old Jennifer Lawrence has become the highest paid actress in the world, on her account 4 nominations for the Oscar and three Golden Globe awards. She has an army of fans all over the world and no wonder: Jennifer is the epitome of the perfect modern girl - beautiful, strong and stylish.
For shooting in the film "Red Sparrow" actress for the first time had to be removed naked. She did not succeed immediately.
“At first I tried to abandon this idea. I was very frightened by the very idea of shooting naked. However, I soon realized that it was wrong to force a character to give up what I don’t want to do, the actress told in an interview. ”
In 2014, frank snapshots of Lawrence appeared on the network, which were intended for her boyfriend Nicholas Holt. The hacker threw photos into the Internet, which caused a huge resonance and very outraged both Jennifer herself and her fans.
As a result, the hacker was detained and sentenced to 18 months in prison. However, when she learned that she was about to bare herself in the frame, Jennifer was frightened by the reaction of others:
“Most of all I was afraid that people would say:“ How can you complain about hacking a hacker if you still undress in front of the camera! ”.
However, over time, Lawrence drew a line between these two events: "The important thing is that one of them is my choice!" The actress admitted that she was very helped to cope with the constraint that the director of the frank scenes was Francis Lawrence, with whom Jennifer had to work on the set of the second part of the Hunger Games.
“He looked me straight in the eyes, as if I was wearing clothes, and I suddenly realized:“ Yes, everything is the same as when I was dressed! ”. Everyone here is professionals. Are you still at work. One look from Francis just calmed me down! It helped me not to feel naked. "
Another challenge for the actress was the need to lose weight for filming. In The Red Sparrow, heroine Lawrence is dancing ballet, and for these scenes Jennifer needed to lose weight and learn to dance. When it comes to diets, the actress immediately recalls the moment at the dawn of her film career, when at one of the castings her and other girls were built in a ruler, and the producer looked at them and as a result said that Jennifer needed to lose weight urgently.
“Before, I often wondered what should happen for me to decide to go on a diet, to starve, because I never did this for filming. "Red Sparrow" was the first film in which I am truly hungry and disciplined. I couldn't play a former ballerina and not feel like a former ballerina. "
However, Jennifer admits that as soon as all the ballet scenes were filmed, she began to eat again, as before, and gain weight.
“I can't work hungry! I can hardly stand. I need more energy. I remember that I was hysterical, after I had to hold out on five things of banana chips! ”
“You will see how I will increase as the film progresses,” the actress laughs.
