The franchise has grossed more than $2.2 billion worldwide, and Mockingjay Part 2 is the powerful conclusion to the highly-successful movie series. The Oscar Award-winning actress is a hot commodity these days and has reportedly earned $52 million thus far.
Breaking from her role as the tough, defiant revolutionist, Jennifer Lawrence will be starring in a new movie directed by David O’Russell named Joy.
Joy is a sensitive comedy which follows the story of a young girl who grows up to lead a business empire and become a family matriarch. In the film, Lawrence will portray Miracle Mop inventor Joy Mangano. Joy will be in theaters Christmas Day.
In May, Lawrence will also return as Mystique in X-Men: Apocalypse.
According to Collider, Lawrence may have other movie possibilities on the horizon.
She is currently in talks to appear in the movie adaptation of the spy novel Red Sparrow. The character Lawrence is slated to play will that of Dominika Egorva, a Russian intelligence officer teamed with an American officer to expose Russian state secrets. If the adaptation is anything close to the novel, expect Lawrence’s character to have the familiar kick-butt, take charge attitude of Katniss.
As reported recently by the Inquisitr, Lawrence may also be working with Amy Schumer on a script for a possible comedy.
Fans are excited and can’t wait to see Jennifer Lawrence in the final Hunger Games chapter coming to theaters November 20. Woody Harrelson, Donald Sutherland, Elizabeth Banks, Natalie Dormer, Sam Claflin, Josh Hutcherson, and Liam Hemsworth will also return.
