Some of you might have heard of this if you follow any of the hg fan websites. Jennifer Lawrence is just like us! ------ The Farrely Brothers had a contest to create a scene from Dumb and Dumber and submit it via Vine and the winner would win a chance to be an extra in the new film. They got over 2,000 submissions and one lucky guy won, Trent Thomas! They talk about why he won and why Jennifer Lawrence doesn’t have to audition via Vine and how she really is a true fan. Lawrence was another story, of course. Oscar winners don’t have to audition over Vine. The Farrellys had offered her a meatier role in the sequel some time ago. Even though she had to turn that down, she knew she’d be in Atlanta shooting The Hunger Games: Mockingjay while Dumb and Dumber To was ramping up production and insisted that they all hang out. So she, Peter and Bobby Farrelly, Jeff Daniels, and a few producers went out to dinner, and then to an Empire of the Sun concert. By the end of the night, Lawrence was telling them how much she wanted to be in the movie. She was even the one who suggested the cameo after the Farrellys politely reminded her of her Hunger Games commitments. The potential role — to appear as a younger version of Kathleen Turner’s character — was coming up quickly, though. The dinner was on a Friday. They had to shoot the scene on Monday. “When we woke up the next morning, I figured I was going to get a phone call saying, ‘Look, I’m sorry, I can’t do this. I was out of my mind last night,’” says Peter. “But we did get that call and it was like, ‘This is awesome! I can’t wait to do this!’” Lawrence’s involvement in the film broke in The Hollywood Reporter almost immediately.”I was disappointed that we couldn’t keep the cap on that,” says Peter, who had hoped that she was so unrecognizable in the film that audiences would only realize it after the fact. But he’s not too distraught about the reveal. That’s what happens when you put one of the hottest young actresses in your movie. ”She’s still in it and we had a ball and it’s hard to feel bad about the whole thing,” he says. “She does know every line by the way,” says Peter. “Everything that Jeff Daniels said would make her giggle. There were little things that he did that reminded her of something from the movie. She would challenge us to name any line and she’d tell us the next five lines. She knew them all.” Dumb and Dumber To is expected to hit theaters sometime in 2014. ------ source: mockingjay.net ~Tracker Jacker
