How Jennifer Lawrence Is Still Cheering on Pal Josh Hutcherson
9. To prepare for the physically demanding role, Lawrence underwent various workout methods.
“It’s lots of training but the training’s actually really fun,” she told MTV News. “I’ve done archery for about six weeks, and rock climbing, tree climbing, combat, running and vaulting. But also yoga and things like that, to stay catlike.”
10. Lawrence had an accident on the last day of her six-week training program, hitting a wall during an exercise that almost delayed production.
“I ran at it and my foot didn’t go up, so I caught the wall with my stomach,” Lawrence revealed to The Hollywood Reporter. “My trainer thought I had burst my spleen. I had to get a CAT scan and go into a tube where they put this fiery liquid in your body.” Fortunately, nothing was broken and a bruised Lawrence was able to continue.
11. Hutcherson also trained extensively prior to filming, telling Collider in 2012, “I’d never really done that for a movie. I put on about 15 pounds of muscle, so that was a lot of eating chicken, and a very high protein, low carb diet.”
12. As for Hemsworth, he revealed his older brother, Thor‘s Chris Hemsworth, offered him some surprising advice to prep for the movie.
“My brother texted me before shooting and told me to lose weight,” Hemsworth revealed to The Hollywood Reporter. “He said, ‘It’s called The Hunger Games, not The Eating Games!'”
