Several new production stills for ‘Catching Fire’ have been released by Lionsgate. See them all in our gallery!
As part of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire’s Global Fan Day, the movie’s three leads — Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, and Liam Hemsworth — and its director, Francis Lawrence, answered fan questions in a Google Hangout.
Here are some of the most interesting and hilarious revelations from the no-holds-barred chat:
Jennifer’s favorite scene in one in which Peeta is knocked unconscious and Katniss and Finnick (Sam Claflin) both try to resuscitate him. “Sam gives him mouth-to-mouth,” she says. “I just kiss him.”
Josh was surprised by how emotional the film is, even in the scenes he thought would be all action.
If she were a tribute trying to impress sponsors, Jen says she could do an infinite number of cartwheels. “And I think I’d probably get a zero”
Jen and Francis say that Josh is an absurdly-good dancer.
Josh’s weirdest fan interaction just happened yesterday, November 5, as he ate a cheeseburger in a restaurant. He says that a man approached him and said, “Hey, I don’t like any of your movies.”
Who’s the better kisser in Jen’s opinion: Josh or Liam? “You know I could never do that!” she replies. “They’re both really good kissers. How ’bout we have them kiss each other and then decide?”
Josh has revealed that Jennifer Lawrence is a top-notch kisser.
Asked if his love scenes with J-Law had given him high expectations from his real-life dates, he responded: “I understand that. She’s definitely many a man’s desire. For me, she’s like a best friend and a sister, so it’s a little bit incestuous. But she’s a great kisser – so, yup, the bar is high!”
But J-Hutch was confident in his own snogging skills too, when asked to rate them.
“On a scale of one to 10, I could be in the upper nines. Eight-and-three-quarters to nine-and-a-half. God, just give a regular answer! Why do I have to be so complicated?”
Josh also confirmed that he’s not afraid to put out on the first date, if he thinks a girl is really special.
Asked where he’d take a love interest on a date, he replied: “Going to the movies or to dinner is fine. But for something special, it has to be spontaneous. For me, it’d be getting on my motorcycle and driving up the coast to a hotel on the beach.”
And when asked how far he’d go, he suggested that he’s not afraid of getting hot-and-heavy on the first night.
“Man, it depends. I’m not one to stick to traditional ways – so, if everything is perfect and it feels right, we could go all the way. To get to that point, I would have to think that she’s really amazing, so going home together wouldn’t change that. And I would hope that she was feeling the same about me.”
The full interview with Josh appears in the December issue of Cosmopolitan, on sale today (Thursday, November 7).
Josh Hutcherson and Queen Latifah will help honor four teenagers at the awards show founded by Nick Cannon, which is set to be broadcast live for the first time.
Nickelodeon announced Monday that the “Hunger Games” actor and rapper-actress will present trophies at the fifth annual TeenNick HALO Awards, which recognize teen volunteers for outstanding community service. The honors will be presented during a ceremony at the Hollywood Palladium on Nov. 17 and broadcast live on Nick at Nite.
Cannon says HALO, which stands for Helping and Leading Others, aims to “continue the conversations about issues that impact teens today, and empower young people to take action and make a difference.” This year’s honorees are involved with causes such as transgender rights, autism awareness, urban revitalization and girls’ education.
