If you haven't read "The Hunger Games" yet, this interview with Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson about the next few films in the series might contain a SPOILER or two...and that's your own darn fault for being slow and recalcitrant. Because now that the two stars are happily chatting about the moments they're most looking forward to filming from books number two and three, we kinda can't keep pretending that it's a big mystery whether or not Peeta survives the first book, and whether or not Josh will be returning for "Catching Fire" and "Mockingjay." Because he does, and he is. Okay? Okay. Sorry we're not sorry. (Don't worry, there are still plenty of big reveals to come when the full trilogy hits the big screen.)
Meanwhile, Jennifer Lawrence didn't hesitate when asked which part of "Catching Fire" she was most excited to shoot:
"We get married!" she grinned—right before she and Josh exchanged meaningful looks, made an inexplicable squawking noise and pointed to their respective ring fingers. Mystery solved: Jen went on to explain that she's been teasing Josh with the eventuality of their cinematic nuptials ever since they first started shooting "The Hunger Games."
All in all, it sounds like both the stars of "The Hunger Games" are psyched to reprise their roles all the way through to the series stunner of a conclusion—and Jennifer, who's a fan of the books, threw in a good word for the probability of "Mockingjay" being split into two separate films.
"It's always hard, every time you convert a novel into movies, because you have to cut so much out," she explained. "[So] in a weird way it's kind of a relief, because you get to keep everything in there."
And speaking of "Hunger Games" fandom, an inquisitive Twitterer finally asked—via Josh Horowitz—the actress playing Katniss the most important of all important questions: Team Peeta or Team Gale?
According to Jennifer, it's a tough choice: "I'm a big flip-flopper, I'm a very fickle person," she admitted. Or at least, she is when she's on her own. BUT: "When Josh is sitting next to me, I'm all the way Team Peeta!"
