Q. It’s quite fascinating to watch you as Katniss Everdeen who is complex and emotional. How has her character evolved in the film? How do you approach the task of portraying her?
A. Katniss grew along with this character. It’s interesting to play the same character throughout the year, as she grows and changes along with you. We are very different, but I pick up a lot of her traits from the books.

Q. Katniss reacts very spontaneously. How do you emote that trait onscreen?
A. Katniss never really wanted to be a hero, she never really wanted to be a Mockingjay, in the beginning of this movie. The other characters try to turn her into a manufactured leader. They realise that she is powerful when they just let her be herself because she is very complex and heroic.
