Jennifer Lawrence is sparking backlash after falsely claiming to be the first woman in the lead of an action movie. <\/p>\n
Lawrence made the comments in a nearly 45-minute sit-down discussion with fellow actress and producer Viola Davis, published by Variety, in which they discussed acting, inequities within the industry and motherhood, among other topics. <\/p>\n
In the discussion, Lawrence, 32, said of the significance of her role playing protagonist Katniss Everdeen in “The Hunger Games”: “I remember when I was doing ‘Hunger Games,’ nobody had ever put a woman in the lead of an action movie because it wouldn’t work \u2014 because we were told girls and boys can both identify with a male lead, but boys cannot identify with a female lead,” she told Davis. <\/p>\n
Lawrence went on to say “it just makes me so happy every single time I see a movie come out that just blows through every one of those beliefs, and proves that it is just a lie to keep certain people out of the movies.” <\/p>\n
