Jennifer Lawrence / Jennifer Shrader Lawrence

Born on August 15, 1990 (Indian Hills, Kentucky, United States).

Jennifer Lawrence has a knack for making every role feel both relatable and larger-than-life. As Katniss Everdeen — the Mockingjay of The Hunger Games saga (2012–2015) — she seemed to merge completely with her role as a fighter for truth and the rights of the oppressed, peeling back the layers of the Capitol’s glittering façade to reveal the machinery of control beneath. She continued to explore the same dark territory in Red Sparrow (2018), this time as an enigmatic spy navigating a world where power manipulates, seduces, and corrupts, stripping away human dignity to expose the very essence of evil. She also embodied the shapeshifting mutant Mystique in the X-Men series (2011–2019) — a character that combined lethal skill with undeniable, almost hypnotic sensuality. In American Hustle (2013), she matched — and seamlessly fit into — an ensemble of heavyweights like Amy Adams or Christian Bale, delivering a performance as volatile as it was unforgettable. With her mix of sharp wit, emotional honesty, and fearless commitment to each part, Lawrence brings a rare electricity to the screen that keeps audiences watching her every move.

Married. Mother of one child.
