The actress who will play Katniss in The Hunger Games movie mentioned that she was obsessed with the popular Suzanne Collins’ young-adult trilogy.

“The books are so incredible. They have a huge fan base which I’m apart. I read them awhile ago, and was obsessed with them.”

Jennifer reflects on the taxing audition process for “The Hunger Games” saying, “I had to audition for the part, and I did this really long improve with Gary Ross, the director. It was the most terrifying thing in my life! I haven’t been nervous at an audition in so long, but that one got me.” She continued, “from now on when I come out of auditions crying it must be a good sign!” Look for “The Hunger Games” wide release on March 23, 2012.
