Jennifer Lawrence Auditioned to Play This Character in ‘Twilight’ (and It’s Honestly Making Our Head Spin)

Lawrence revealed she was turned down “immediately” for the role. (Wow, ouch.) However, she’s thankful for not getting the role because her life would have been entirely “different.” She told Simmons, “I got Hunger Games I think, like, a year later.” 

The actress went on to star in all four movie installments: The Hunger Games, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1 and Part 2. 

Lawrence also revealed on the podcast that after she got turned down for the role in Twilight, she almost didn’t audition to play Katniss. She said, “I almost didn’t do Hunger Games because Twilight had come out and that fandom had happened.”

The American Hustle star went on to add, “I assumed it was going to be the Twilight level of fame and that was never something I had in mind. I never wanted to be the most famous person on the planet. That’s a very different life than I pictured for me.”

We never would’ve guessed.
