How did Jennifer Lawrence feel during her 2-year break from acting? Details explored

Jennifer Lawrence has revealed details about her hiatus from acting and how she felt during that period. The Hunger Games actress, during an appearance on the Graham Norton Show on October 17, 2025, stated that she was comfortable with the notion of not getting back into the Hollywood scene after her break:

“I was at peace with that possibility of happening. [Hollywood] is a lot. I think I would've been fine. Well, I mean, no — I would be really upset."

The 35-year-old actress, who appeared on the show to promote her upcoming movie project Die My Love, added that working in the movie industry throughout her twenties made her want “more” out of life.

She described the 2020 pandemic as a kind of answered prayer for her:

"I was just like, 'I want to take a break,'" she continued. "They were like, 'the world is shutting down.'"

Jennifer Lawrence recalls serving Robert Pattinson “Garbage food” during a Howard Stern interview

Jennifer Lawrence’s upcoming movie Die, My Love, stars the actress alongside Twilight star Robert Pattinson. While promoting the film on the Graham Norton Show, Lawrence recalled a funny incident with her co-star, Pattinson, where he allegedly ate food from her garbage.
 

She stated that she had her girlfriends over and they were watching Little Women. She recalled Pattinson calling her during the night:

“He was like, ‘Hey, I just wrapped something like a block away from you,'” she recounted. “And I was like, ‘Oh my God!’ ‘Cause Rob is one of the girls. He wants to gossip. He is just one of the gals. So I was like, ‘Come over!'”

She added that Pattinson told her he was hungry when he arrived at her house, and she started to panic because her only food was already in the garbage. 

“He goes to the bathroom, and I do have food, but it’s in the trash. And so while he was in the bathroom, I was just, like, pulling food out of my garbage can.”

Lawrence revealed that her friends were shocked watching the actor eat the food she had pulled from the garbage. She stated that after Pattinson had finished eating, he stated that he was still hungry.

The Oscar-winning actress told Pattinson that she didn’t have any more food, and the rest was in the garbage:

 “I was like, ‘Well, there is, but it’s in the garbage.But that didn’t seem to bother Pattinson. “He was like, ‘Oh, I don’t mind.’ And he just pulled it out of the trash and just kept eating it.” 

Host Graham Norton joked that Pattinson was the ideal house guest. 

Die, My Love, will be released in theaters on November 17, 2025.
