Donald Sutherland Fought for the President Snow Role: Real or Not Real?

Crystal — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 09:30:35 +0000

If you go by Entertainment Weekly, Donald Sutherland wrote to Gary Ross to tell him why he belonged in the cast of ‘The Hunger Games’. But in a recent interview at the Journey 2 Premiere in LA (shown above), Sutherland denied this when asked if it was true, saying, “Regrettably, that is not the case.” If you go back to the EW article, if you read the article without the first sentence, it actually sounds more like Sutherland simply emailed Gary to discuss the role, which then led to the two new scenes. I admit I’m bummed, I just loved that. (ha ha ha!)

In a new segment of Josh Horowitz’ really fun interview with Josh and Jennifer, he asked them about all the hype and pressure going into the production.

“I, for one, felt it at the beginning, and then when we showed up on set, it was just making a movie, putting it aside,” Lawrence said.
“It was crazy. It had so much buildup for something I’ve done so many times before,” Hutcherson added. “Every other time it’s been, ‘Oh, another movie.’ This time, it had so much going on before the production even started. I felt it but don’t feel like it affected me that much.”
Speaking to which scenes they were most excited to shoot, Hutcherson again called out the cave scene, while Lawrence joked that she never knew what they were filming.
“I was excited for the cave scene the most, for me at least, because it’s the most character-driven part of the story where you really saw Katniss and Peeta’s relationship take a big turn and come to fruition, if you will,” he said.
“Whoa. ‘Fruition.’ I didn’t know what scenes we were doing until the day I showed up,” Lawrence joked. “But there were a couple of scenes where I’d read the call sheet and go, ‘Oh, that’s going to be a fun scene.’ “

MTV’s Josh Horowitz got to sit down with the two tribute stars of ‘The Hunger Games’ movie for a hilarious and totally cute interview in which they talked about how they first met, their chemistry read together, and how Josh is like a dog licking your face with his giddy energy.

we asked the two about their “chemistry read,” the point during the audition process when the two actors read their respective roles together for an audience of filmmakers and studio representatives.
“They had hired Jennifer, and they were trying to find Peeta. I had gone in for the first round of auditions, and a few weeks later, they brought me back,” Hutcherson said. “We did a chemistry read and kind of hit it off right away, I felt, for the second time, third time,” he joked, playing up the foggy memories of their first meeting. “So that’s the first time we got to play the characters together.”
“We had tons of chemistry,” Lawrence insisted with a laugh. “He was Peeta,” she added of her first impressions of Hutcherson as “the boy with the bread.” “I had heard the director, I had heard Gary [Ross] say, ‘He is the only one who is actually Peeta,’ and then [Josh] came in, and he was. He’s charming and nice and sweet, like a dog licking your face.”
“A dog licking on your face?” Hutcherson asked, wondering if Lawrence was paying him a compliment or not.
“It is! That’s what it’s like hanging out with you, it’s like, ‘Eeeeee!’ ” Lawrence said of her excitement being around the 19-year-old.

Crystal — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 20:10:15 +0000

In a behind the scenes video from The Hollywood Reporter’s cover shoot, Gary Ross gave a cool shout-out to the fandom by admitting how fun it is to share his work with all the fans.

“It’s a wonderful feeling when you’re part of a collective experience,” he said of Games’ enormous — and dedicated — fan base. “Normally you’re making a movie and there’s a certain amount of obscurity and you hope that people find it, but the fact literally you get to share this with everybody who is already connected to the story and you’re part of something bigger. It’s a blast.”
