 In this week’s cover story, newly-minted Golden Globe best actress winner for Silver Linings Playbook Jennifer Lawrence told EW that her publicist recently turned down an offer for the 22-year-old to appear on Inside the Actors Studio. “Do you know how much that guy would hate me?” she said with her goofy chuckle about professorial host James Lipton. ‘’Tell me about your method?’ There is no method! I never know my lines! He would be horrified.” Besides, said Lawrence, surely that hot seat is meant for folks with a longer resume to show for themselves than hers. “I love that show but I’m not old enough. I’m not at a place yet where I can look back and think ‘Oh this how I….’ I’m not ready. And, please, I’m an animal.”

Current EW cover star Jennifer Lawrence was already having a great week before this morning’s Oscar announcement that the 22-year-old had received her second Best Actress nomination for Silver Linings Playbook (her first was in 2011 for Winter’s Bone). She won Best Movie Actress at the People’s Choice Awards last night and was understandably exhausted, so she can be forgiven for dozing off this morning. “This time I wanted to wake up but I couldn’t open my eyes and then my parents came into my room and kissed my forehead and told me congratulations,” she told EW. “I know, it’s really nerdy. And then they told me about the movie and Bob and Jacki and Bradley and David. Try going back to sleep after that!”

Entertainers of the Year: Jennifer Lawrence

Ben Affleck might be on the cover of our Entertainers of the Year issue, but there’s a case to be made that Jennifer Lawrence could take him in a street fight. The 22-year-old (22!) actress from Kentucky anchored her first franchise when she nimbly picked up Katniss Everdeen’s bow in The Hunger Games, thrilling Suzanne Collins’ discerning fans with her equal parts fierce and tender performance. And then, in a graceful return to her indie roots, Lawrence delivered a bravura performance playing Tiffany, a damaged young woman who refuses to apologize for her messiness, in David O. Russell’s Silver Linings Playbook. She’s a miracle up on the screen. And, miraculously, she sounds like her very big 2012 has not gone to her head.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: You’ve had an extraordinarily successful year. Is there a moment or decision which makes you particularly proud?
JENNIFER LAWRENCE: Personally, yes. Business-wise no. I don’t think I’ve ever done that. No matter what anyone says, I’m my own worst critic.

Well, if I was talking to your parents instead, what might they say was their proudest moment?
At the Toronto Film Festival for the Silver Linings Playbook premiere. I couldn’t sit with them because I had to sit with the cast. I went out first [afterwards] and then I saw them and my Dad had tears in his eyes. I’ve never seen my Dad with tears in his eyes, ever. My first thought was that someone hurt him or something! ‘What’s happened to my Dad?’ My mom was crying too but she always cries. They were really proud. That was probably the one moment I allowed myself to feel good and proud. READ FULL STORY »

'Catching Fire' set photos: Jennifer Lawrence in the arena! (Plus: A peek at Finnick?)

by
Tags: , , ,

The Catching Fire cast is currently filming in beautiful Hawaii, a setting which doesn’t seem to have much to do with grim dystopian Panem. But as readers of the Hunger Games books know [SPOILERS if you don't like reading, weirdo] the Arena that plays host to the 75th Hunger Games in Catching Fire has a body of water and a curious environmental climate which seems perfect for a tropical island. A photographer snapped some photos from the set, which feature a look at Jennifer Lawrence in her Quarter Quell outfit, Josh Hutcherson in the water, and a guy who appears to be Finnick acting very Finnick-y indeed. Look on! READ FULL STORY »

For football fiends, Silver Linings Playbook, starring Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence, and Robert De Niro as Cooper’s superstitious bookie dad, is stuffed full of NFL references and scenes of frenzied fandom. The NFL Network, however, doesn’t see the movie so brightly.

Anger from The Weinstein Company’s Harvey Weinstein, the dramedy’s co-executive producer, rippled through the web over the weekend after the NFL Network dropped an interview with Cooper and Silver Linings costar Chris Tucker from last Friday’s one-hour The Rich Eisen Thanksgiving Special.

New 'Silver Linings Playbook' trailer strikes a new tune -- VIDEO

Tags: , , , ,

Oscar-nominee Jennifer Lawrence features more prominently in the new trailer for The Silver Linings Playbook, no doubt a reaction to the movie’s stellar reception at the Toronto International Film Festival, where the Hunger Games star picked up some Oscar buzz.

We also get more of Bradley Cooper’s character’s anger issues, but what really seems to tie it all together is the Lumineers’ song “Ho Hey,” the same contagious tune you’ve heard on those Bing commercials.

The box office blues continued during this sad September weekend, when four new releases entered theaters, yet none surpassed $13 million.

In fact, September 2012 is proving to be one of the slowest months at the movies in a decade. As of this weekend, ticket sales have amounted to $357.3 million — 21 percent lower than the same point in the month last year, and the lowest September total since 2004, when month-to-date ticket sales equaled $356.3 million. (Keep in mind, 2004 didn’t have the benefit of 3-D ticket prices.) Nothing seems to be engaging audiences in a substantial way.

But that’s not to say the box office was totally dead this weekend.

Tied for first place was Open Road’s Jake Gyllenhaal/Michael Pena crime drama End of Watch, which earned an estimated $13.0 million out of 2,730 theaters, yielding a mild per-theater average of $4,762. The gritty cop film, which has earned strong reviews overall, was independently financed for a reported budget somewhere between $7 million and $15 million (an Open Road spokesperson did not confirm the budget when reached via email), and then acquired by Open Road for $2 million.  READ FULL STORY »
