The Oscar winner is promoting her first film since 2018, and she opened up about her career hiatus and what she would like to do if she decides to quit acting.
Jennifer Lawrence is one of the actresses of the new breed of great Hollywood talents. In 2010, the interpreter starred in the independent film Lazos de sangre (Winter's Bone), a role for which she received her first Oscar nomination, and which launched her to fame.
Since then, Lawrence's career took off and she did not stop for a second. The actress earned four Oscar nominations, ultimately winning Best Actress in 2012 for her performance in Silver Linings Playbook. Despite her unstoppable success, in 2018 she decided to take a break from acting.
Now Jennifer is back and with several news in between. The first is that she is expecting her first child with her husband Cooke Maroney. The second is that she is about to release her new movie Do n't Look Up (Don't look up) with a top-notch cast led by Leonardo DiCaprio and Meryl Streep.
Jennifer Lawrence has a plan in case she retires from acting
Lawrence was a guest on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert where she discussed her brief retirement from the acting world. Asked what she did during her retreat, the actress joked that she "had tons of sex," looking at her belly, which reveals an advanced pregnancy.
In reality, the 31-year-old interpreter revealed that the break she decided to take in her career coincided with the pandemic, so she did the same as most people, cooking and cleaning.
Although the protagonist of The Hunger Games acknowledges that she always felt comfortable on film sets, where there is a schedule and everything is ordered, she enjoyed taking a break from all that. "I took a break and no one really cared, and she was cool and I liked it. I feel like I could be part of the world again without the flashes," she confided.
When asked by Colbert what she would do if she decided not to return to acting, Lawrence confessed to the host that housework would be a big part of her plan, as she thinks she's very good at doing that kind of thing. "I think I'd make a really good housewife...I mean I make a mess, but I'm really good at cleaning it up. I can attack a mess," Lawrence said, adding that she loves cleaning her kitchen while she listens to podcasts. about murders.
At the moment, Lawrence doesn't have many projects on her agenda, except for a couple of titles. She also has not revealed if she will take time after the birth of her child, although we will surely see her in action again. For now, on December 24, the film Don't Look Up, directed by Adam McKay, arrives on Netflix.
In addition to Lawrence, Streep, and DiCaprio, the film also stars Jonah Hill, Ariana Grande, Timothée Chalamet, Matthew Perry, Himesh Patel, Cate Blanchett, Rob Morgan, and Tomer Sisley.
