“I have to churn out movies in between so that I’m not only known for this franchise,” Lawrence told Simmons, 53. “I was still in a franchise, so I was still trying to counteract the franchise-ness and I would still be doing that if I was inTwilight.”
“That was just something I never had in mind,” Lawrence said of that “Twilight-level” fame. “I want to do Indies and I wanted to do good films, but I didn’t want to be the most famous person on the planet. That’s a very different life than what I had pictured for myself.”
