In a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, actress Jennifer Lawrence opened up about her experience filming the upcoming movie Die My Love, directed by Lynne Ramsay. The film, set to be released on November 7, 2025, explores the psychological struggles of a writer named Grace, portrayed by Lawrence, who descends into psychosis following the birth of her child. Her husband, Jackson, played by Robert Pattinson, attempts to support her as her behavior becomes increasingly erratic.
Pregnancy and Performance
During the interview, which also featured co-star Sissy Spacek, Lawrence discussed how being pregnant while filming influenced her performance. She revealed that her pregnancy helped her tap into the necessary energy and emotional depth to portray Grace. “It was really helpful, because when you’re pregnant, you’re kind of animalistic,” Lawrence explained. She noted that pregnancy activates new areas of the brain, allowing her to channel feelings that resonated with her character.
Lawrence described experiencing a sense of being a “caged animal,” which added to her ability to embody Grace’s mental state. This connection was particularly beneficial given the film’s intense and challenging scenes. The interviewer probed further about how she managed to unwind after these demanding shooting days.
Reality Show Relief
To decompress, Lawrence turned to the reality show The Secret Lives of Mormon TikTokers (Wives), available on Hulu. She expressed her relief that the show releases episodes all at once, saying, “So it wasn’t like I had one [episode] a week. So no problemo for me.” This binge-watching strategy provided her with a much-needed escape from the film’s weighty themes.
Lawrence shared her excitement about the upcoming season of the show. She also joked about the soda consumption featured in the series, noting that it made her feel ill during her pregnancy. “When I would watch them squirt all those… into those huge sodas, that made me, like, sick,” she said, adding a humorous twist to her reflections on the filming experience.
The candid conversation highlighted not only Lawrence’s commitment to her craft but also her ability to find lighthearted moments amid serious work. As anticipation builds for Die My Love, fans can look forward to seeing Lawrence’s compelling performance, shaped by her unique experiences during filming.
