Reflecting on the experience, she acknowledged how different her life would have been if she had been cast in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/jennifer-lawrence-talks-the-monster-role-she-didnt-land-and-why-shes-glad-she-didnt\/\" title=\"Jennifer Lawrence on missing out on a monster role and her relief.\">popular vampire series<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Although she didn&#8217;t get the role in &#8220;Twilight,&#8221; Lawrence&#8217;s career took a different turn when she landed the part of Katniss Everdeen in &#8220;The Hunger Games&#8221; a year later. This role catapulted her to worldwide fame and success.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Speaking about the missed opportunity, Lawrence said, &#8220;My life would&#8217;ve been totally different. I mean, the work is still the same because I <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/trigger-warnings-are-now-triggering-violent-language-brandeis-university-says\/\" title=\"\u2018Trigger Warnings\u2019 Are Now \u2018Triggering,\u2019 \u2018Violent\u2019 Language, Brandeis University Says\">felt similar<\/a> when I was doing &#8216;Hunger Games&#8217;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;They turned me down immediately.

She feared the level of fame and the intense fandom associated with it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">She explained, &#8220;It was so hard to explain to people. It was like I don&#8217;t think you understand this level of fame&#8230; I just assumed it was gonna be like &#8216;Twilight,&#8217; like the Twilight-level fame, and that was just never something I had in mind.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b data-stringify-type=\"bold\"><\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Lawrence emphasized that she wanted to pursue independent films and be known for her acting skills rather than just being the most famous person on the planet.
