Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson and Liam Hemsworth have moved on from the Hunger Games franchise with success, proving that the odds have always been in their favor.
Based on author Suzanne Collins’ young adult books of the same name, 2012’s The Hunger Games, 2013’s The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, 2014’s The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 1 and 2015’s The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 2 blew up at the box office. The films follow a group of teens forced to battle for their lives in a dystopian world.
Along with Lawrence, Hutcherson and Hemsworth, the franchise starred Woody Harrelson, Elizabeth Banks, Stanley Tucci and Donald Sutherland. The costars quickly formed close bonds, especially the main trio.
“The truth is, it was literally what everyone saw in all of our interviews together,” Hutcherson exclusively told Us Weekly in September 2020 of their friendship. “It was all of us being ridiculous children together, horsing around. I don’t know how we got any work done ever. I’m surprised the movies are good.”
The actor revealed that their connection remains, as they keep “in contact pretty closely” years after the franchise wrapped filming.
“We always get together and see each other when we’re in the same place,” he explained. “There’s not a Hunger Games group chat. We’ve got a couple email threads that a few of us are on but we don’t have a group chat.”
