But really, for the most part - doing a prequel is great because you do have room to kind of free this character and how they got to where they are instead of being a slave to exactly what the previous actor did.

More quotes by Jennifer Lawrence
When you're asking about roles for men and women, men certainly have a longer shelf life. Men can play the sexy lead for 20 years longer than we can.
Jennifer Lawrence
I'm doing what I love, and then I get months and months of rest. I have a lot of money for a 21-year-old. I can't stand it when actors complain.
Jennifer Lawrence
Knowledge is honestly everything. It's not just books and staying behind a desk and having a diploma. There's also traveling and knowledge about people, and what I do and scripts and books.
Jennifer Lawrence
I can't hear myself. I can stare at my double chin all I want, but hearing this androgynous voice, you can't even tell what sex I am.
Jennifer Lawrence
I'd like to think that I have a plan, but you can't really pick what scripts you're going to get or what movie is going to come along.
Jennifer Lawrence
I was going to come in and push you down the stairs.
Jennifer Lawrence
Whenever I really want a part, I'm not sure what to do. How do I let the director know how obsessed I am and willing to do anything for the movie?
Jennifer Lawrence
I memorize my lines and I show up. I think it's just instinctual, and sometimes it's wrong and the director says, No, do it this way. And then I can change, because I didn't spend all night practicing it this one way. All I do to get ready for the day is the night before, I read my lines once or twice, memorize them, and then I show up.
Jennifer Lawrence
I never studied acting, yet the first time I auditioned and did a cold reading, I surprised everyone for my honesty and limpidity. They told me I could play any role because I have no walls, I don’t put anything between me and the character I have to play.
Jennifer Lawrence
I'm always terrified before every movie because I haven't found her [the character], and I don't get it. [Without acting, I'd have] become a nurse.
Jennifer Lawrence
Why can't we just be nice? It's like, we grow up, and then we get right back into high school.
Jennifer Lawrence
I'm still the same and I don't feel any different but when the elevator doors open and everybody gasps, it's an alienating feeling.
Jennifer Lawrence
You don't want your relationship to be in the press, but at the same time, and this is only a theory, the more you try and keep it secret, the more the media tries to crack it open.
Jennifer Lawrence
I mean, if we're regulating cigarettes and sex and cuss words, because of the effect they have on our younger generation, why aren't we regulating things like calling people fat?
Jennifer Lawrence
I never play characters that are like me because I'm a boring person. I wouldn't want to see me in a movie.
Jennifer Lawrence
I'm from Kentucky. I used to be very personable and make eye contact and smile at people, and now all I do is look down. When I'm at dinner and one person after another keeps interrupting to take pictures, it's like, I can't live like this.
Jennifer Lawrence
I do have big ambitions, but I think we all do. I just want to keep working hard and being happy.
Jennifer Lawrence
I'm always just very nervous. I never feel like, 'I've got this'. I'm always very nervous and aware of how quickly people can hate you and that scares me. I never feel like I'm on top of it or I know what I'm doing... so, no. I never get a big head, I just get more and more anxious.
Jennifer Lawrence
I really love acting. I really do. I really just think of myself like a working woman. And I just go from set to set and work. You have to promote a movie you have to work. People are going to have opinions and it's weirdly very easy to kind of block out the world because you have your own.
Jennifer Lawrence
Without my family, I would be nothing.
Jennifer Lawrence
