The star of The Hunger Games talks about her career at the 2022 BFI London Film Festival, presented in partnership with American Express (5-16 October).
Since her breakthrough performance in Winter's Bone (2010), Jennifer Lawrence has successfully balanced the world of serious drama and blockbuster entertainment.
Her Oscar-winning performance in Silver Linings Playbook (2012) not only established her as one of the most talented actors of her generation, it highlighted her star power; beyond her skills as an actor, she exudes a screen charm that has made her one of the most sought-after performers in Hollywood. And alongside her roles in box office behemoths such as The Hunger Games trilogy and the X-Men series, she has amassed a body of work that cements her status as a performer who fully inhabits her characters.
From her roles in American Hustle (2013), Joy (2015) and mother! (2017) to Don't Look Up (2021) and her latest, playing a military engineer who has returned from Afghanistan with a debilitating brain injury, in LFF Special Presentation Causeway, Jennifer Lawrence is an undeniable talent.
