Actress Jennifer Lawrence<\/span> on Thursday sought to clarify a controversial comment she made earlier this week regarding female-led action movies. <\/p>\n

In a video interview published Wednesday in Variety, Lawrence told fellow actress Viola Davis that, “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, we were told. Girls and boys can both identify with a male lead, but boys cannot identify with a female lead.” <\/p>\n

After the comment sparked online criticism, Lawrence on Thursday told The Hollywood Reporter that she did not mean to say she was the “only woman who has ever led an action movie,” but instead to “emphasize how good it feels.”<\/p>\n
